Electrolyte Normal Ranges

Normal Sodium Range: 135-145 mEq/L
Normal Potassium Range: 3.5-5.0 mEq/L
Normal Chloride Range: 97-107 mEq/L
Normal Serum CO2 Range: 22-26 mEq/L
Normal Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) Range: 8-21 mg/dL

Fishbone Diagram Overview

Head of the Fish: Sodium and potassium are critical for cellular function and fluid balance.
Middle of the Fish: Chloride and CO2 serve important roles in maintaining pH and electrolyte balance.
End of the Fish: BUN and creatinine are key indicators of kidney function.
Tail of the Fish: Glucose is essential for energy metabolism.

Clinical Relevance

Kidney Failure Indicators: Focus on BUN, creatinine, and potassium levels for assessing renal function.
Acid-Base Balance: CO2 reflects the arterial bicarbonate level, indicating the acidity or alkalinity of blood.
