what the risks are blood test, phosphorus, serum, po4, inorganic phosphate, hpo4-2, serum phosphorus test measures the amount, phosphate, in the blood, adult, child, blood is drawn, a vein, the elbow, the hand, puncture site is cleaned, antiseptic, an elastic band, around the upper arm to apply pressure, vein to swell, blood, a needle is inserted, vein, blood is collected in an air-tight vial, a syringe, band is removed, restore circulation, once the blood has been collected, needle is removed, puncture site is covered to stop any bleeding, infant, young child, area is cleansed, antiseptic, punctured, a sharp needle, a lancet, blood collected, pipette, small glass tube, on a slide, onto a test strip, into a small container, a bandage applied, puncture site, any bleeding, health care provider, advise to withhold drugs, affect the test, "special considerations", infants, children, test depends on child's age, level of trust, prepare child, infant test, procedure preparation, birth to 1 year, toddler test, procedure preparation, 1 to 3 years, preschooler test, procedure preparation, 3 to 6 years, schoolage test, procedure preparation, 6 to 12 years, adolescent test, procedure preparation, 12 to 18 years, the needle is inserted to draw blood, feel moderate pain, others feel only a prick, stinging sensation, some throbbing, this test is performed to evaluate the blood level of phosphorus, disorders known to cause abnormal phosphorus levels, the body's phosphorus is combined, calcium, the skeleton, 15% exists, phosphate, po4, ions, in the blood, soft tissues, body fluids, dietary phosphorus is efficiently absorbed, a low po4 level, dietary deficiency is unlikely, in the absence of a malabsorption syndrome, inadequate absorption of nutrients, in the intestinal tract, individuals on a normal diet, po4 levels, controlled by pth, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin d, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin d increases absorption of calcium, phosphate, in the intestines, pth, increases calcium, po4 release from bone, decreases loss of calcium, increases loss of po4, in the urine, increases activation of 25-hydroxy vitamin d to 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin d, in the kidneys, normal values range from 2.4 to 4.1 mg/dl, normal value ranges, among different laboratories, mg/dl = milligrams per deciliter, abnormal results, indicated by the following, greater-than-normal levels, bone metastasis, hypocalcemia, hypoparathyroidism, increased dietary, iv intake of po4, liver disease, renal failure, sarcoidosis, lower-than-normal levels, diabetic ketoacidosis, hypercalcemia, hyperinsulinism, hyperparathyroidism, inadequate dietary intake of po4, vitamin d resulting in rickets, childhood, osteomalacia, adult, additional conditions under which the test performed, multiple endocrine neoplasia, men, ii, secondary hyperparathyroidism, tertiary hyperparathyroidism, excessive bleeding, fainting, feeling lightheaded, hematoma, blood accumulating under the skin, infection, a slight risk, the skin is broken, multiple punctures to locate veins, antacids, bind po4, decrease absorption, nonpharmacological factors, affect po4 measurements, enemas containing sodium phosphate, excess vitamin d supplements, intravenous glucose administration, po4 enters cells, glucose, drugs, increase po4 measurements, laxatives containing na2hpo4, sodium phosphate, methicillin, excess vitamin d, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin d, veins, arteries vary in size, obtaining a blood sample.
