Glutamine

Ammonia in the human body is produced by the action of amino acids, deaminated kidneys to decompose glutamine and intestinal bacteria during protein metabolism. Most of the ammonia is synthesized in the liver by circulation, and a part of it is converted to glutamine by ammoxidation with keto acid. Glutamine plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic coma and hepatic encephalopathy. Basic Information Specialist classification: Digestive examination classification: biochemical examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: No clinical significance.

Normal value 396 to 711 μmol/L. Clinical significance Abnormal result Elevation: hepatic coma, meningitis, cerebral hemorrhage, Rege syndrome. Need to check the crowd Surgical patients, burns, severe trauma patients, high-intensity trainers. High results may be diseases: hepatic encephalopathy, meningitis, hyperuricemia considerations Before inspection: 1, do not eat too greasy, high-protein food the day before the blood, to avoid heavy drinking.

After inspection: 1. After blood is drawn, local compression is required at the pinhole for 3-5 minutes to stop bleeding. Note: Do not rub, so as not to cause subcutaneous hematoma. 2, the pressing time should be sufficient. There is a difference in clotting time for each person, and some people need a little longer to clotting. Therefore, when the surface of the skin appears to be bleeding, the compression is stopped immediately, and the blood may be infiltrated into the skin due to incomplete hemostasis. Therefore, the compression time is longer to completely stop bleeding. If there is a tendency to bleed, the compression time should be extended. 3, after the blood draw symptoms of fainting such as: dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, etc. should immediately lie down, drink a small amount of syrup, and then undergo a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved. Inspection process Inspection method: draw blood. Not suitable for the crowd no. Adverse reactions and risks no.
