Hypomagnesemia happens when you have a low level of magnesium, an electrolyte, in your blood. It can be mild or severe and is treatable. It often happens alongside low calcium and potassium levels, which are also electrolytes.
5 Ιαν 2024 · The data suggest that this might occur when hypomagnesemia occurs in the setting of an acute ischemic event, congestive heart failure, torsades de pointes, after cardiopulmonary bypass, or in the acutely ill patient in the intensive care unit.
30 Νοε 2023 · Treating hypomagnesemia is essential. Dangerously low magnesium levels can potentially cause fatal cardiac arrhythmias, such as torsades de pointes (polymorphous ventricular tachycardia with marked QT prolongation).
2 Νοε 2023 · For example, it may result in hypokalemia (low potassium), which can cause additional issues. Hypomagnesemia further increases the risk of certain heart problems, including high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, and congestive heart failure.
28 Νοε 2005 · The most common causes of low serum potassium are gastrointestinal loss (diarrhea, laxatives), renal loss (hyperaldosteronism, severe hyperglycemia, potassium-depleting diuretics, carbenicillin, sodium penicillin, amphotericin B), intracellular shift (alkalosis or a rise in pH), and malnutrition.
Serum magnesium represents less than 1% of total body magnesium. 2 In industrialised western countries, a low intake of magnesium often predisposes to a high prevalence of magnesium deficiency increasing the risk of cardiovascular events and cardiovascular death. 3 This article aims to review of effect of magnesium deficiency on the cardiovascul...
Magnesium deficiency in experimental animals promotes atherosclerotic lesions whereas this ion is involved in various stages of myocardial damage after experimental coronary artery occlusion. In humans magnesium administration in the first 24 hours of myocardial infarction was related to beneficial effects in first year mortality rate.
