Fractional excretion of sodium:Ratio:Pt:Urine Ser/Plas:Qn: - CISMeF
Fractional excretion of sodium:Ratio:Pt:Urine Ser/Plas:Qn:LOINC code
Preferred Label : Fractional excretion of sodium:Ratio:Pt:Urine Ser/Plas:Qn:;
LOINC status : ACTIVE;
LOINC display name : Fractional excretion of sodium (U S/P) [Ratio];
LOINC long common name : Fractional excretion of sodium [Ratio] in Urine and Serum or Plasma;
LOINC short name : Fract excret Na Ur SerPl-Rto;
LOINC description : The fractional excretion of sodium is calculated as follows, where the asterisk is
being used to indicate multiplication: 100 * (urine Na * plasma creatinine)/(plasma
Na * urine creatinine). Fractional excretion of sodium is used to try to distinguish
pre-renal azotemia (FE Na 1% ) from m actute tubular necrosis (FE Na 1%) and post
renal azotemia (FE Na 4%).;
