Calculations
Anion Gap
AG = Na - (Cl + HCO3)
Calculated Osm
Calculated Osm = 2 x Na + (glu/18) + (BUN/2.8) + (ethanol/4.6) + (methanol/2.6) + (ethylene glycol/5) + (acetone/5.5) + (isopropanol/5.9)
- Normal = 275-295
Osmolal Gap
Osmolal Gap = measured osm - calculated osm
- Normal = (-)14-10 mOsm/L
