Background
- High >3.5
- Magnesium is an effective calcium channel blocker both extracellularly and intracellularly[1]
- Intracellular magnesium profoundly blocks several cardiac potassium channels.
Diagnosis
| Mg Level | Signs/Symptoms |
|---|---|
| 2-3 | Nausea |
| 3-4 | Somnolence |
| 4-8 | Loss of DTRs |
| 8-12 | Respiratory depression |
| 12-15 | Hypotension, heart block, Cardiac Arrest |
Differential Diagnosis
- Renal Failure
- Lithium
- Volume depletion
- Rhabdo
- IV Mg (goal in PET/eclampsia 5-7 mEq/L)
- Massive PO intake (laxative abusers, accidental Epsom salts)
- Magnesium enemas[2]
Treatment
- IVF (NS)
- Furosemide 20-40mg IVP
- CaCl 10% 5-10mL IV or Ca gluconate 10% 15-30mL IV over 5min
- Consider HD for Mg > 8 or poor renal function
