Parameters
Potassium (K+ ):Even small changes in extracellular K+ concentration will have significant effects on the transmembrane potential gradient, and thereby the function of neuromuscular and cardiac tissues. [1]
Sodium (Na+): As the most abundant extracellular fluid solute, Na+ is the major determinant of its osmolality and thereby the principal determinant of water distribution between the intracellular and extracellular compartments. [2]This highlights the role of Na+ in the maintenance of blood volume and thereby blood pressure.
Chloride (Cl- ): As the second most abundant extracellular fluid ion after Na+, and the most abundant extracellular fluid anion, Cl– is essential for the maintenance of normal plasma osmolarity.[3]
Ionized Calcium (iCa2+): The maintenance of iCa2+ within normal limits is not only important for the structural integrity of bones but for a range of physiological functions, including hemostasis, cardiac and skeletal muscle cell contraction, neuromuscular transmission and action of many hormones (calcium-signaling).[4]
Ionized magnesium (iMg2+):iMg2+ relates to the stabilization of intracellular potassium, which ensures the normal functionality of myocardium, nerve and muscle.
