Background
- Primary determinants are sodium, glucose, BUN, chloride
- Osmolal gap
- When measured minus calculated > 10
- Suggests unmeasured, low molecular weight solutes
- EtOH
- Ethylene glycol
- Methanol
- Isopropyl alcohol toxicity
- Diethylene glycol
- Propylene glycol
- Mannitol
- Glycerol
- Smaller gaps possible in:
- Ketoacidosis
- Lactic acidosis
- Chronic kidney disease
Values
- Calculated osmolarity = 2Na + Gluc/18 + BUN/2.8
- Sodium multiplied by two to account for physiologic anions (chloride and bicarbonate)
- Na in mEq/L, Glucose in mg/dL, BUN in mg/dL
- Normal 280-295 mosmol/kg
