serum digoxin
Digoxin is used to treat congestive heart failure, usually in combination with a diuretic (water pill) and an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It is also used to treat a heart rhythm problem called atrial fibrillation.

Digoxin belongs to the class of medicines called digitalis glycosides. It is used to improve the strength and efficiency of the heart, or to control the rate and rhythm of the heartbeat. This leads to better blood circulation and reduced swelling of the hands and ankles in patients with heart problems
normal values .5 to 2 ng/ml
BUN levels
Normal - 8 to 25 mg/dl
troponin - protein found in striated muscle increased amounts are found in MI when there is myocardium or heart muscle damage
Troponin T value that is higher than .1 to .2 ng/ml = MI

normal troponin 1 level < .6ng/ml

infiltrated iv -
lislodged form the vein and is in the sub q tissue. when presure in the tissues exceeds the pressure in the tubing the iv will stop.
hypokalemia
3.5-5
critical &lt; 2.5
Low K interesferes with repolarization of cells - muscles cannot fire
Severe muscle cramps and pain
Increased HR, confusion, tingling fingers and toes, lack of balance, rapid rr, shaking, weakness, flushing, tremors, dyphoreisis,

hypoaldoseronism
DM
beta blockers - block K channels
intense exercise
causes of hypokalemia
alkalosis
