Interactive Anion Gap calculator with albumin correction. Requires the calculator gadget.
Usage: {{Anion Gap Calculator}}
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Sodium (Na⁺) mEq/L | |
| Chloride (Cl⁻) mEq/L | |
| Bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻) mEq/L | |
| Albumin (g/dL) — optional, for correction | |
| Results | |
| Anion Gap | mEq/L |
| Corrected AG (for albumin) | mEq/L |
| Delta-Delta Ratio (ΔAG / ΔHCO₃) | |
| Interpretation | |
|---|---|
| AG <12 | Normal anion gap — Consider non-AG metabolic acidosis (HARDUPS mnemonic). |
| AG ≥12 | Elevated anion gap — Consider MUDPILES: Methanol, Uremia, DKA, Propylene glycol, Isoniazid/Iron, Lactic acidosis, Ethylene glycol, Salicylates. |
| Delta-Delta Ratio | |
| <1 | Concurrent non-AG metabolic acidosis (mixed). |
| 1–2 | Pure anion gap metabolic acidosis. |
| >2 | Concurrent metabolic alkalosis (or pre-existing elevated HCO₃). |
