Calculate the serum anion gap from basic metabolic panels to quickly differentiate causes of metabolic acidosis for free.
The anion gap calculation helps doctors determine the cause of metabolic acidosis (such as diabetic ketoacidosis or lactic acidosis). It measures the difference between standard measured cations and anions in the blood serum.
Input the Sodium (Na+), Chloride (Cl-), and Bicarbonate (HCO3-) values from the patient's lab report. The tool instantly displays the calculation along with a clear indication of whether the result falls within normal parameters.
