The consultingphysician recommended testing glucose and electrolytes. The results are attached in the picture below: (a) What is the difference between serum and plasma? (b) Describe the results (c) Plasma glucose levels lower than 20 mg/dl can be fatal. As the patient’s resultsdid not match with her clinical presentation, the consulting biochemist decidedto investigate this test, and found that the glucose analyser was giving theresults in mM, but the lab assistant had assumed the results were in mg/dl. Isthis error pre-analytical, analytical or post-analytical? (d) 1 mM glucose = 18 mg/dL glucose. What is the patient’s fasting plasmaglucose in mg/dL, and is it within the normal range? (e) Describe possible consequences of this error.arrow_forwardJohn Smith joined a Triathlon for a cause. The triathlon consisted of a 1.5 km swim, 40 km bike ride and a 10 km run.
