Potassium and Magnesium Replacement Calculator

Potassium and Magnesium Replacement: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers serum potassium. Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.

Potassium and Magnesium Replacement Calculator is a planned calculator in the health section of Super Calculator, covering clinical dosing and scores.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: serum potassium, serum magnesium, weight (kg), renal function and route.

Outputs: estimated deficit (mmol), replacement dose and maximum infusion rate.

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Estimates the deficit from the serum concentration using the clinical heuristic that each 0.3 mmol/L fall below normal represents roughly a 100 mmol total body deficit, then applies infusion rate limits, commonly 10 mmol/h peripherally and up to 20 mmol/h centrally with monitoring.
