Abstract

Objective: To determine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of electrolyte disorders (hyponatremia, hypercalcemia) in lung cancer patients at Thai Binh Provincial General Hospital. Study Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study on 44 lung cancer patients treated at Thai Binh General Hospital. The patients were tested for serum sodium and calcium levels, and the relationship with clinical characteristics was analyzed. Results: The prevalence of hyponatremia was 18.2%, and hypercalcemia was 6.8%. Hyponatremia was significantly associated with tumor size (>7 cm, p = 0.03). Hypercalcemia was more common in patients over 60 years old (p = 0.032) and those with a history of smoking. Conclusion: Electrolyte disturbances are common in lung cancer patients, especially in those with large tumors and a history of smoking.
