Electrolyte and Biomarker Studies
Investigations that would aid the diagnosis include urinalysis and blood tests with markers for:
Acute Abdomen
In cases of ischemic acute abdomen, laboratory tests reveal:
- Neutrophilic leukocytosis, sometimes with a left shift assessed through a complete blood count
- Increased serum amylase
