“…Nephrotoxic drugs such as ifosfamide, cisplatin, amphotericin and aminoglycosides also increase renal magnesium elimination. 40 Clinical signs are nonspecific, as they are usually associated with concomitant hypocalcemia and hypokalemia. Paresthesias, cramps, seizures, fibrilation and cardiac arrest might occur.…”

“…Serum Mg concentration is the most commonly used test to assess Mg status, but total serum Mg concentration appears to be held within a tight range (17-22 m g/l) (Lowenstein & Stanton, 1986). A serum concentration of less than 17mg/l usually indicates some degree of Mg depletion (Wong et al 1983;Quamme, 1993). However, the measurement of serum Mg concentration may not reflect the true total body Mg content, and low intracellular Mg has been documented in patients with serum levels above 1 7mg/l (Ryan et al 1981;Ryzen et al 1985Ryzen et al , 1986Rude et al 1991;Nadler et al 1992;Rude & Olerich, 1996).…”

“…Despite the fact that hypomagnesaemia is a frequent finding, ranging from 12% in all hospitalised patients to 60% in an intensive care setting, plasma magnesium is not measured routinely [1,2]. The clinical manifestations of magnesium depletion are rather nonspecific.…”
