Transtubular Potassium Gradient (TTKG)

Transtubular Potassium Gradient (TTKG) may help in assessment of hyperkalemia or hypokalemia. When to Use Pearls/Pitfalls

Transtubular Potassium Gradient at CCD

A normal TTKG in normal subjects on normal diets is 8-9. With a potassium load the TTKG may rise to 11. In the face of Hyperkalemia, a low TTKG (<7) may 

Fractional Excretion Of Potassium

Additional diagnostic information regarding urinary potassium loss can be evaluated using our Transtubular Potassium Gradient (TTKG) calculator.

TTKG Calculator

TTKG calculator counts the transtubular potassium gradient to determine if the kidneys are reacting to the serum potassium level 

TransTubular Potassium Gradient Equation Page

TTK+G varies with diet. In Hypokalemic states: < 2.0 = GI loss, skin loss, history of vomiting, etc. > 4.0 means renal loss (aldosterone excess).

The serum K is in normal limits. It is 4meq/L. The ttkg is generally in the 8 to 9 range on a normal K diet. REFERENCES (from
