Abstract

Abstract


Sera from seventy uremic patients selected randomly were analysed for their electrolytes (Na+, K + C1 and C02). Marked hyponatremia, hypokalemia and hypochioremia was associated with 51.4,40 and 45.7 percent cases respectively. Fourteen percent cases had serum CO2 concentration above normal showing contraction alkalosis. l.V. fluid used in majority of cases was dextrose in water and combined with the use of diuretic “Lasix” whick may be attributed to the higher percentage of hyponatremia and hypoka­lemia in this study
