Example sentences for: hypocalcemia

How can you use “hypocalcemia” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The abnormalities, such as elevated level of hepatic enzymes, hyperbilirubinemia, hypocalcemia and hyperamylasemia associated with HBP, were strongly predictive factors for delirium.

  • Recent work showed that there were some relationships between serum catecholamine levels and QT intervals during the acute phase of SAH [ 1 6 ] . However, one cannot refute the possibility that the catecholamine surge may influence the QT interval indirectly via hypokalemia, because hypokalemia (as well as hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia) can cause a prolongation in the QT interval [ 4 7 8 9 ] .

  • Nevertheless, this association does not prove a causal relationship between elevated ProCT levels and hypocalcemia.

  • Findings for risk factors included respiratory disease (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cor pulmonale, pneumothorax, hemothorax, etc.), symptomatic infection, fever (>38°C), hypotension (symptomatic, or systolic blood pressure <80 mmHg), anemia (<25% htc), hypertension (>90/160 mmHg), hypo/hyperpotassemia (<3 or >6 mEq/l), hypocalcemia (<8 mg/dl), hypo/hypernatremia (<130 and >150 mmol/l), elevated level of serum urea nitrogen (>100 mg/dl), elevated level of hepatic enzymes (high alanine aminotransferase, high aspartate aminotranferase), hyperamy-lasemia (>300 U/l), hyperbilirubinemia (>10 mg/dl total bilirubin), metabolic acidosis, hypoalbuminemia (<3 g/dl), hypo/hyperglycemia (<60 or >300 mg/dl), cardiac disease (symptomatic coronary heart disease and arrhythmias, heart failure, etc.), emergency admission status, age, length of stay in the ICU (LSICU), length of stay in hospital (LSH), and gender.

  • In this study series, we determined that conditions such as disease or symptom variables (respiratory diseases, symptomatic infections, fever, anemia, hypotension) and laboratory variables (hypocalcemia, hyponatremia, azotemia, elevated liver enzymes, hyperamylasemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and metabolic acidosis) were predicting factors for delirium.
