<p>CSV import</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Osmol gap&#039;&#039;&#039; is a diagnostic measure used in medicine to identify the presence of certain substances in the blood. It is calculated by subtracting the measured osmolality of a blood sample from the calculated osmolality. An elevated osmol gap can indicate the presence of certain toxins or substances in the blood, such as methanol or ethylene glycol.<br /> <br /> == Calculation ==<br /> The osmol gap is calculated using the following formula:<br /> <br /> : Osmol gap = Measured osmolality - Calculated osmolality<br /> <br /> The calculated osmolality is typically determined using the concentrations of sodium, glucose, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in the blood. The formula for calculated osmolality is:<br /> <br /> : Calculated osmolality = 2 * [[Sodium]] (mEq/L) + [[Glucose]] (mg/dL) / 18 + [[BUN]] (mg/dL) / 2.8<br /> <br /> == Clinical significance ==<br /> An elevated osmol gap can indicate the presence of certain substances in the blood that are not accounted for in the calculated osmolality. These can include toxins such as [[methanol]], [[ethylene glycol]], or [[isopropanol]], as well as certain medications or substances used in medical treatments.<br /> <br /> In addition to its use in identifying the presence of these substances, the osmol gap can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for poisoning by these substances. A decreasing osmol gap can indicate that the treatment is effectively removing the substance from the blood.<br /> <br /> == Limitations ==<br /> While the osmol gap is a useful diagnostic tool, it has some limitations. It is not specific for any particular substance, and an elevated osmol gap can be caused by a variety of factors. Additionally, the osmol gap can be affected by errors in the measurement or calculation of osmolality.<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Osmolality]]<br /> * [[Blood urea nitrogen]]<br /> * [[Methanol poisoning]]<br /> * [[Ethylene glycol poisoning]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Medical tests]]<br /> [[Category:Toxicology]]<br /> [[Category:Biochemistry]]<br /> <br /> {{stub}}</div>
