摘要：Physical exercise could lead to change in electrolyte concentrations and this could lead to adverse effect in the body. The effect of physical activity on serum electrolytes was investigated in the current study using trade mill workouts for the analysis sodium, potassium, and calcium electrolytes. To determine the effect of treadmill ergometer exercise on Serum Electrolytes Sodium, Potassium, and Calcium in undergraduate students in Peshawar KP. Method: 20 students aged between 20-25 years were selected for the study. 5ml blood samples taken from the forearm antecubital vein into Gel barrier tubes and were analyzed by the autoanalyzer in the central laboratory for blood electrolyte levels. The samples for analysis were collected at pre-exercise and post-exercise stage for 5 MET and 10 MET from 10 participants in each group respectively. Post-Exercise blood Samples were collected within 10 minutes after the exercise. Results & Findings: Pre and Post exercise valves of 5 MET protocol for Na+ mmol/L (Pre = 141.2560 ± 2.15497 & Post = 139.0550 ± 2.93401), K + mmol/L (Pre = 4.3480 ± .27892 & Post = 4.1660 ± 2.93401) and Ca2+ mmol/L (Pre = 2.1160 ± 0.13023 & Post = 2.5110 ± 0.19439). Pre and Post exercise valves of 10 MET protocol for Na+ mmol/L (Pre = 141.2560 ± 2.15497 & Post = 139.0550 ± 2.93401), K + mmol/L (Pre = 4.3480 ± 0.27892 & Post = 3.9300 ± 0.19212) and Ca2+ mmol/L (Pre = 2.2620 ± 0.14062 & Post = 2.7340 ± 0.10426) were found. Conclusion & Recommendation: A very small increase in mean concentrations of serum electrolytes (Na+ , and K + ) and a significant increase in serum Ca2+ level was observed for 10 MET Protocol when compared with exercising condition of 5 MET Protocol. The findings of this work suggest that exercises of low intensity and speed are altering very slowly the serum electrolytes concentration while high intensity exercise can show significant changes in serum electrolytes level.
