Alterations of Electrolyte Balance.

Which factor would the nurse identify as a primary cause of hypocalcemia?

The most common cause of hypocalcemia is hypoparathyroidism, which occurs when the body secretes a less-than-average amount of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Low PTH levels lead to low calcium levels in your body.

Which should the nurse include in a patient teaching session as the most common cause for hyperphosphatemia?

2.6 mEq/L, it causes hyperphosphatemia. Which should the nurse include in a patient-teaching session as the most common cause for hyperphosphatemia? Poor kidney function. Which are the potential causes of phosphate moving from the extracellular to the intracellular space, resulting in hypophosphatemia?

Which serum sodium level should the nurse recognize as hyponatremia?

a. Normal serum sodium level is 135 to 145 mEq/liter. A serum sodium level less than 135 mEq/liter indicates hyponatremia.
