Q: Why is it important to measure electrolyte levels and monitor the electrocardiogram of a patient who is receiving massive transfusions?
- Citrate in the red blood cell units may cause hypocalcemia.
- Extracellular potassium levels may become too high (because of red-cell lysis) or too low (when transfused red blood cells become active) in patients receiving blood transfusions.
