 The following values are obtained on a sampleof serum from a child that has clinical evidence of dehydration.

Serum [Na] = 130 mmol/L
Serum [glucose] = 540 mg/dL
Serum [urea nitrogen] = 56 mg/dL

Assuming there are no toxins in ECF, theeffective serum osmolality is approximately:


  1. 290 mOsm/kg H 2 O
  2. 300 mOsm/kg H 2 O
  3. 310 mOsm/ kg H 2 O
  4. 320 mOsm/kg H 2 O
  5. 330 mOsm/kg H 2 O
