Laboratory Findings
The following laboratory studies should be considered:
- Anion gap
- Arterial blood gas sampling
- ECG (to assess for arrhythmias)
- Electrolytes basic metabolic panel), complete blood count.
- Imaging of the kidneys
- Serum lactate, ketone
- Toxicological screening, salicylate level (methanol or ethylene glycol)
- Urinalysis can reveal acidity, (salicylate poisoning) or alkalinity (renal tubular acidosis type I), and ketones in ketoacidosis.
