Nova Biomedical’s Educational Webinar Series Presents:


Monitoring and measuring magnesium values are essential to prevent the development of numerous complications in perioperative medicine and critically ill patients. Although current studies suggest that measuring free ionized magnesium (Mg++


clinicians often still rely on measurement of total serum magnesium (tMg) to determine if supplemental magnesium is needed. Electrolytes (Na+ is their only clinically active form. Now Mg++ (Ca++


, K+ , Ca++ ) is recognized as the standard for assessing Ca status, Mg++


patient care. We will also discuss whether Mg++ the difficulties in measuring Mg++
