Urine nickel (Ni)

The determination of urinary nickel and blood nickel has a certain significance for acute nickel poisoning. When blood nickel and urine nickel are simultaneously reduced, it is more common in liver and kidney dysfunction. Clinically, urine nickel determination is often used for acute acute and chronic nickel poisoning. Urine nickel determination is helpful in estimating the degree of acute carbonyl nickel poisoning. Basic Information Specialist classification: urinary examination classification: urine / kidney function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: normal. Normal value: Urine nickel (Ni): 0-11μg / l Above normal: Common in acute and chronic nickel poisoning and acute nickel carbonyl poisoning. negative: Positive: Warm reminder: the production workshop, strict implementation of rules and regulations and mechanical operating procedures, strengthen ventilation and personal protection. Normal value The normal reference range is <11 μg/l and the average is 4.2 μg/l. Clinical significance Elevation is common in acute and chronic nickel poisoning and acute nickel carbonyl poisoning. (Note that mild poisoning of urine nickel does not exceed 25μg / L, moderate poisoning 25 ~ 500μg / L, severe poisoning more than 500μg / L. Specific reference values, depending on the laboratory) High results may be diseases: nickel carbonyl poisoning precautions Production workshop, strict implementation of rules and regulations and mechanical operation procedures, strengthen ventilation and personal protection. Inspection process Chest X-ray examination of patients with moderate and severe poisoning is consistent with changes in chemical peri-bronchitis, pneumonia or pulmonary edema. Cardiac electrograms in severely poisoned patients can be seen in arrhythmias and myocardial damage. Not suitable for the crowd no. Adverse reactions and risks no.
