It is generally an unwelcome surprise in underwriting, because many times it is a finding in an otherwise healthy and asymptomatic individual who was headed straight for a standard or preferred policy issue that is suddenly derailed. Proteinuria can be persistent (present in all samples) or intermittent (caused by a transient illness or an acute problem). When proteinuria is constant, it is usually a sign of underlying kidney disease, and secondarily a cause of increased mortality. Insurance studies have shown a mortality of almost 200% in applicants with significant proteinuria in those who had no symptoms of disease, and far greater than that in those where the protein in the urine was in large amounts. Diseases of the heart and circulatory system were the most important causes of eventual mortality in these people. Additionally kidney failure was a leading cause of illness as well. Proteinuria can be the result of advanced or end stage disease from a different systemic illness. Diabetes is the most important of these. In diabetes, the presence of protein in the urine generally means advanced or uncontrolled disease. The blood vessels in the kidneys are affected, but it is important to realize that if this is happening on the level of the excretory system, it is also happening in other blood vessels in the body as well, such as the heart. Uncontrolled high blood pressure also is a significant cause of unexplained protein in the urine, and the same changes that narrow the vessels within the kidney and cause the individual apparatus of filtration to be damaged also happen in other vital blood vessels throughout the body and are causes of excess and early mortality.

Proteinuria : Protein in Urine All Info About advertise with us contacting us Topics Shop For Books With Amazon Proteinuria : Protein in Urine Proteinuria describes a condition in which urine contains an abnormal amount of protein. Proteins are the building blocks for all body parts, including muscles, bones, hair, and nails. Proteins in your blood also perform a number of important functions. They protect you from infection, help your blood coagulate, and keep the right amount of fluid circulating through your body. As blood passes through healthy kidneys, they filter the waste products out and leave in the things the body needs, like proteins. Most proteins are too big to pass through the kidneys' filters into the urine unless the kidneys are damaged. The main protein that is most likely to appear in urine is albumin. Albumin is smaller and therefore more likely to escape through the filters of the kidney, called glomeruli. Sometimes the term albuminuria is used when the test detects albumin specifically. Albumin's function in the body includes retention of fluid in the blood. It acts like a sponge, soaking up fluid from body tissues. Inflammation in the glomeruli is called glomerulonephritis, or simply

PROTEINURIA IN RENAL DISEASE Abbreviated medical protocols from EdREN , the website of the Renal Unit of the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh Relating protein excretion to excretion of creatinine corrects for variations in urine concentration, and measurements of this ratio on single samples can in most circumstances substitute for 24h collections. The conversions shown here are very approximately those for a 70kg person with an average muscle mass and rate of creatinine production. Those with lower creatinine production will have a higher ratio for a given rate of protein excretion (and vice versa) - however it is an anomaly that we correct GFR for size, but not protein excretion. This conversion assumes a daily creatinine excretion of approx 10 mmol - on the low side for muscular men. Protein excretion g/24h Protein/creatinine mg/mmol Normal ranges for microalbuminuria Microalbuminuria estimation is of little value in patients known to have renal disease, but may be useful for new patients. An albumin excretion rate of is the normal value for 24h collection ambulant, timed collection

The nephrotic urine contains a large amount of protein but does not contain elements indicating active inflammation such as WBCs and RBC casts. In contrast, the nephritic urine is suggestive of acute renal inflammation and will contain protein, RBC casts, blood by dipstick, and WBCs. The differential diagnosis can be narrowed based on whether a nephritic or nephrotic urine is present. Nephrotic Syndrome. General . Nephrotic syndrome is not a disease but rather the renal manifestation of multiple underlying causes. The primary disease may be renal in origin, such as minimal-change disease, or may be a systemic illness with renal manifestations, such as diabetes mellitus with nephropathy. Nephrotic syndrome may be related to glomerulonephritis and other causes of nephritis. Once active renal disease (nephritis) is no longer ongoing (that is, burned out), the patient may end up with nephrotic syndrome and a nephrotic urine. Definition Presentation Anorexia, malaise, edema, anasarca, or pleural effusions.

How the test is performed Return to top Urine protein is tested by one of these methods: To quickly see whether or not protein is present in urine, a "spot test" is used. In this test, a chemically treated stick is dipped into a random sample of urine, simply to see if protein is detectable. To actually measure how much protein is being excreted in the urine, a 24-hour urine sample is required. The health care provider will instruct you, if necessary, to discontinue drugs that may interfere with the test. The procedure for collecting urine over 24 hours is as follows: On day 1, urinate into the toilet when you get up in the morning.
