Why is inulin used to determine renal function? Which disorder involves final stage of chronic renal failure? Define each of the following terms given below and a chemical that can be used to measure it? 1. Cle
Acutely ill intensive care unit (ICU) patients often have large apparent volumes of distribution of drugs and, because of this, their drug clearance (CL) is usually also increased. 'Augmented renal Cl' is a current issue in the management of drug therapy for acutely ill and unstable ICU ...
Answer to: What is the creatinine clearance test? How can it be used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR)? How accurate is it? By...

(15 g/day for 7 days; followed by 2 g/day for 7 weeks). Based on increased blood levels of creatinine and subsequent estimate of calculated creatinine clearance, his kidney health was presumed to be deteriorating, although he was otherwise in good health. The patient was encouraged to ...
The WHO 2017 guidance suggests a range of laboratory tests every 3–6 months for those on PrEP including for HIV, creatinine clearance, HBV, HCV, STIs, and pregnancy [42]. However, the majority of persons for whom PrEP is most useful are likely to find it challenging to obtain these ...
Flexible ureteroscopy is increasingly being used as the first-line therapy for renal stones. Although the precise stone-free rates acheived with this procedure are unknown, largely as a result of variations in stone and patient characteristics, and the c
The increased evidence for causality at more extreme or increasingly cold temperatures does raise the dilemma of whether it is better to use a lower threshold (e.g. in London below 8–9 °C) to estimate cold related mortality burdens, below which we are more certain of a causal ...
