Description
An account of the resource
Hypomagnesemia may be caused by renal losses (often related to drugs or diabetes), inadequate intake or inadequate intestinal absorption. Manifestations may include arrhythmias, particularly during myocardial ischemia or with digitalis use, and such neurologic findings tremors, seizures, and eventually coma. Measure magnesium levels in critically ill patients, those with diabetes or alcoholism, and those taking drugs associated with magnesium loss. Magnesium deficiency often coexists with hypokalemia and hypocalcemia: to correct the latter abnormalities, replete the magnesium deficit first. Base your decision to replace the magnesium orally or parenterally on symptom severity, rather than on absolute serum levels. Magnesium excess may lead to cardiac arrest, with symptoms resembling hyperkalemia. Treat as you would for hyperkalemia, with IV calcium gluconate, insulin, and dextrose.
