Normal values of Calcium, Phosphate, PTH and Alkaline phosphate mnemonic

Hey!

Here are a few mnemonics on how to remember the normal range of calcium, phosphate, PTH and Alkaline phosphate.

You may need to memorise these values for time restricted exams where wasting time looking up tables for normal values may cost you a few points.


Here are the values:
Calcium, serum (Total) 8.4-10.2 mg/dL
Parathyroid hormone, serum, N-terminal 230-630 pg/mL
Phosphatase (alkaline), serum 20-70 U/L
Phosphorus (inorganic), serum 3.0-4.5 mg/dL

Normal calcium level mnemonic

Normal phosphorous range mnemonic
Alkaline phosphatase normal range mnemonic
PTH normal value mnemonic

That's all!
