Sodium Deficit Calculator — free online calculator.
Formula
- Sodium Deficit Calculator calculates its result from Weight (kg), TBW factor, Target sodium, Current sodium. It uses the formula Sodium deficit = TBW × (target Na − current Na); TBW = factor × weight. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly. This is an informational calculation and is not medical advice.
- The main inputs are Weight, TBW factor, Target sodium, Current sodium. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Use the measurement units shown beside each field. The result is an estimate and should be interpreted in context.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Sodium Deficit
- Weight: 70 kg
- TBW factor: 0.6
- Target sodium: 140
- Current sodium: 130
Using Weight (kg) = 70, TBW factor = 0.6, Target sodium = 140, Current sodium = 130, the calculated result is 420.
