1 Session Number 208 LAB POTPOURRI WHAT EVERY CRITICAL CARE NURSE NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT COMMON LABS Content Description Hank Geiter, RN, CCRN-CMC Owner: Critical Care Transport RN: Sunstar EMS Although clinical assessment is the mainstay of the critical care nurse's detective work in determining what is going on with the critically ill patient and what they need; batteries of laboratory tests are run on these patients daily and hold a wealth of complementary information. In addition to guiding clinical assessment focus and frequency, as in the case of sodium or bicarbonate levels, they can also tell us about the patient's metabolic state (ph, pco2, lactate), whether they are dehydrated or in renal failure (BUN/creatinine ratio), what potential diagnoses may be responsible for the patient's acidosis (anion gap/mudpiles), and what other conditions may be present that are not revealed on clinical assessment... YET, and much, much more! Also, there is other important information regarding these tests that the critical care nurse needs to know. Proper collection, who do we run tests on (besides cost is there any other reason we don't run tests on everyone), and what are the tests' limitations (specificity vs. sensitivity, positive predictive value vs. negative predictive value) and more. What constitutes normal and how does the lab determine the normal range for a given test? Are all normal ranges the same? What about the effects of one value on another. Many nurses already know the relationship between magnesium and potassium. - but, what about calcium and albumin? What does the CO2 in the chemistry panel really measure (hint - the answer is not really CO2)? Beside blood tests, there are other tests that are done less frequently but are equally important. The results of these "low use - high value" tests can help the critical care nurse understand when an assessment finding is expected and benign or is critical. Join us as we cover common blood and body fluid (urine, CSF and pleural fluid) tests ordered in critically ill patients, what they test for and their implications to nursing care and assessment using an interactive case study approach. Learning Objectives At the end of this session, the participant will be able to: 1. Discuss factors that affect lab ordering, collection, testing, and interpretation.
