Urine Anion Gap - MDCalc
The Urine Anion Gap is used for differential diagnosis in metabolic acidosis using measured ions in the urine.
Urinary Anion Gap - LITFL
2021年9月29日 · Urinary Anion Gap (UAG) = (UNa+ UK) – UCl. the cations normally present in urine are Na +, K +, NH4 +, Ca 2+,and Mg 2+. the anions normally present are Cl –, HCO3 –, sulphate, phosphate and some organic anions.
Urine Anion Gap Calculator - MDApp
This urine anion gap calculator differentiates between the metabolic acidosis mechanisms and checks renal function.
Urine anion and osmolal gaps in metabolic acidosis - UpToDate
2023年1月31日 · Measurement of the urine anion gap (UAG) and/or urine osmolal gap (UOG) may be helpful in the evaluation of patients with a normal anion gap (hyperchloremic) metabolic acidosis by providing an estimate of urinary ammonium (NH 4+) excretion (table 1) [1-5]. The normal renal response to metabolic acidosis is to increase urinary ammonium excretion.
Urine anion gap - Wikipedia
The urine anion gap is an 'artificial' and calculated measure that is representative of the unmeasured ions in urine. Usually the most important unmeasured ion in urine is NH 4 + since it is the most important form of acid excretion by the kidney. [ 5 ]
Diagnosis of metabolic acid-base disorders & Anion-gap …
2024年6月29日 · Elevated anion gap is concerning, because many causes of this are immediately life-threatening. (Unlike, for example, non-anion-gap metabolic acidosis – where most causes are not life threats). Bicarbonate <22 mM with a normal anion gap indicates a pure non-anion-gap metabolic acidosis (NAGMA).

Biochemistry, Anion Gap - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2023年7月10日 · Using the results of the comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), the anion gap is the difference between measured cations (positively charged ions like Na+ and K+) and measured anions (negatively charged ions like Cl- and HCO3-). There are three types: serum, plasma, and urine anion gaps.
Urine anion gap - AMBOSS
Normal range is -20 to -50 mEq/L. Positive urine anion gap is associated with decreased renal acid excretion (e.g., type 1 and type 4 renal tubular acidoses); negative urine anion gap is associated with loss of bicarbonate (e.g., diarrhea).
The Urine Anion Gap: Common Misconceptions - LWW
It has been shown that daily urine excretion rates of the components of urine anion gap, Na, K, and Cl, are nearly equal to their dietary intake. 8 This can be attributed to the fact that these three electrolytes are nearly completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and that they are neither metabolized nor produced in the body.
