Urine total nitrogen

Urine total nitrogen is another nitrogenous substance in the blood-removing protein, mainly protein metabolites, including urea, uric acid, creatinine, creatine, amino acids and ammonia, as well as so-called unidentified nitrogen, such as Gu Guanggan. Peptides and nucleotides of nitrogen, etc., their molecular weight is small, and they are easily excreted from the kidneys. Nitrogen excretion is also affected by the amount of protein in the diet, and is also related to the body's protein breakdown and anabolic balance. Basic Information Specialist classification: urinary examination classification: urine / kidney function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Severe liver disease, etc. Normal value: Urine total nitrogen (mixed diet): 714-1285.2mmol/24h Urine total nitrogen (high protein diet): 1570-1785mmol/24h Above normal: Renal failure, urinary tract obstruction, heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, severe dehydration, leukemia, etc. negative: Positive: Tips: Try to use fresh morning urine when doing this check. The urine that is randomly selected is preferably mid-stage urine. Menstrual women are not suitable for this examination. Normal value <857mmol/24h (<12g/24h); Mixed diet 714 ~ 1285.2mmol / 24h (10 ~ 18g / 24h); Low protein diet 357mmol / 24h (5g / 24h); High protein diet 1570 ~ 1785mmol / 24h (22 ~ 25g / 24h). Clinical significance 1, elevated: renal failure, urinary tract obstruction, heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding, severe dehydration, leukemia and so on. 2, lower: severe liver disease and so on. Low results may be diseases: high renal failure results may be diseases: liver disease, dehydration considerations Note during inspection: Fresh morning urine should be used as much as possible during this examination. The urine that is randomly selected is preferably mid-stage urine. Not suitable for the crowd: menstrual women.
