Overview
Laboratory Findings
The commonly seen laboratory findings in mesenteric ischemia include:[1]
Early findings:
(More sensitive)[2][3][4][5][6]
- Leukocytosis with predominance of immature white blood cells
- Hemoconcentration
- High anion gap metabolic acidosis
- Lactic acidosis (I-lactate) 86% sensitivity and 44% sensitivity
(Less sensitive)[7][8][4][9][10][11]
High levels of
- Serum amylase (50% sensitivity)
- Phosphate (80% sensitivity)
- Aspartate aminotransferase
- Lactate dehydrogenase
- Creatine phosphokinase
Abnormality in the lab findings is mostly seen after the infarction of the bowel has ensued. However, any patient with unrecognized abdominal pain and high anion gap metabolic acidosis should be ruled out for mesenteric ischemia.
Laboratory findings when bowel necrosis has occured:
- Hyperphosphatemia
- Hyperkalemia
