Why get a serum gastric level?
A serum gastrin level is ordered to determine the level of the hormone gastrin. A blood sample is used to determine the hormone level. High levels of gastrin indicate the presence a duodenal ulcer or a gastrinoma. If your doctor suspects you may have one of these conditions this could be the reason that you would get this test done.
What does a creatinine level of 1.44mg indicate?
i would think that it would indicate issues with kidneys
Is serum potassium level 8.9 compatible with life?
Normal potassium levels are 3.5-5.0 mmol/L. Above 5.5-6.0 mmol/L is considered hyperkalemic and severe hyperkalemia sets in around 6.5 mmol/L, with associated heart arrhythmia. Any level in this upper range can be fatal. Short answer, 8.9 would not be compatible with life.
Indicate the charge on the bromide ion in the equation resulting in the ionic compound potassium bromide?
The charge of Bromine would be -1.
What does low phosphate indicate?
it would be important to know what the calcium level is.
Would taking loperamide make your Potassium level increase on a blood test?
Loperamide is an anti-diarrheal medicine. The drug itself is not related to an increase in potassium on a blood test. However, having diarrhea can cause you to lose potassium and other minerals. So that a blood test taken before the drug is used can show a low potassium level. When the diarrhea stops, the potassium level will increase.
Does a banana have potassium atoms or potassium ions?
It has potassium ions... an ion is what fills the highest occupied energy level... if it were just potassium atoms, u would blow up when you eat bananas... once the potassium bonds with another element it becomes stable
How does potassium-19 differ from potassium-41?
The nomenclature "potassium-19" is not commonly used because it is redundant. The 19 in potassium-19 would indicate the number of protons in potassium. All isotopes of potassium have 19 protons. Therefore 19 is known as the atomic number of potassium. Potassium-41 is one of the three naturally occurring isotopes of potassium. It has 19 protons and 22 neutrons, giving it an atomic mass number of 41.
What is sodium serum in medical billing?

Which change in a sample of pond water could indicate that heterotropic microbes were active?
A lowering of the dissolved oxygen would be an indication of that happening and that would be the primary thing that i would look for
Does potassium help blood clotting?
No. If your body is healthy, it regulates your blood potassium level within a very tight range. If your potassium level were abnormal, clotting would be the least of your problems. This is frequently confused for two reasons: First, vitamin K levels do have a significant effect on clotting and the chemical symbol for potassium is "K". Second, some drugs that are used to control clotting can affect your potassium levels, so people may incorrectly pass on advice from their doctors about potassium and clotting that only applies to them because of the specific medications they take.
