Urine Chloride/Creatinine Ratio for Estimation of Urine Sodium

Completed

Conditions studied: Hypertension

In brief

We plan to assess the accuracy of a new means of estimating urine sodium excretion. We will compare the chloride to creatinine ratio obtained by titrator sticks with urine sodium measured by a standard laboratory. If found to approximate sodium excretion, the titrator sticks could provide a convenient means for doctors and patients to monitor their salt intake.
