During the 9 months of pregnancy, pregnant women often experience many changes in appearance, physical and mental health. High white blood cells during pregnancy is one of the changes related to hematology. So is high white blood cells during pregnancy dangerous?

Potassium (K) is one of the electrolyte components of blood. Normal blood K content is 3.5-5 mEq/L. Hypokalemia causes fatigue, weakness in limbs, muscle pain, cramps, constipation, and can cause complications such as slow heart rate, reduced myocardial contractility or torsades de pointes tachycardia, which is one of the causes of arrhythmia leading to cardiac arrest. Hypokalemia is very dangerous, especially for patients with chronic diseases such as heart failure, obstructive pulmonary disease...

Since the extracellular fluid makes up only about one-third of the body's fluid, most (about 98%) of the potassium is intracellular, with only a small fraction outside the cell (1.5–2%). Therefore, disturbances in serum potassium are often the result of transmembrane potassium translocation which may not accurately reflect total body potassium deficiency or excess.

Hemodynamic disturbances in septic shock are complex and have a high mortality rate. This condition is difficult to assess in individual patients, even in different stages in the same patient. Early detection of changes in ScvO2 and blood lactate are two very important indicators for diagnosing hemodynamic disturbances in septic shock.

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the deep layers of the skin that usually has a sudden onset and is life-threatening if not treated promptly. In cellulitis, the skin barrier is often damaged, allowing the infection to spread rapidly.
