Hypocalcemia: Treatment
• Calcium gluconate• 25-100mg/kg IV
• Calcium chloride• 10-20 mg/kg IV• Must be given centrally
• Treat low Magnesium• Treat underlying disease• When should you avoid treating
hypocalcemia?• Tumor lysis syndrome (unless patient is symptomatic)

Hypomagnesemia: Symptoms
• Symptoms:• Refractory hypocalcemia• Diarrhea• Ventricular arrhythmias• Muscle weakness, tremors, tetany
• Causes• Decreased intake or malabsorption• Decreased renal reabsorption (familial, diuretics,
amphotericin, bartters’s, gitelman’s• Transcellular shift (hyperaldosteronism, pancreatitis,
respiratory alkalosis, catecholamines)

Hypomagnesemia
• Treatment• Magnesium sulfate 25-50 mg/kg• Replace potassium and calcium• Oral supplementation

Hypophosphatemia
• Symptoms• Muscle weakness, paralysis• Respiratory depression• Leukocyte and platelet dysfunction• Hemolysis
• Causes• Decreased intake or malabsorption• Decreased renal reabsorption (hyperparathyroidism,
fanconi’s, vitamin D deficiency, medications)• Transcellular shift (catecholamines, theophylline,
respiratory alkalosis)

Hypophosphatemia: Treatment
• Determine underlying cause (many times it is multifactorial)
• Replace using:• NaPhos• Kphos 0.08-0.32 mmol/kg over 4-6 hours
