Overview
Laboratory Findings
The commonly seen laboratory findings in mesenteric ischemia include:[1][2][3][4]
Early findings:
(More sensitive)
- Hemoconcentration
- High anion gap metabolic acidosis
- Lactic acidosis
(Less sensitive)
High serum levels of
- Serum amylase
- Aspartate aminotransferase
- Lactate dehydrogenase
- Creatine phosphokinase
They are frequenlty observed at presentation.
