Aclaramiento de creatinina en orina de 2 horas vs 24 horas en pacientes con insuficiencia renal para estimar el filtrado glomerular, en el Hospital General Guasmo Sur en un periodo de 5 meses.

Abstract

Creatinine clearance aims to estimate glomerular filtration rate, to determine the renal function's deteroration; this has been carried out through the collection of 24-hour urine, however several studies suggest that a 2-hour collection has a similar efficacy, avoiding the complications of the previous one. This is a prospective study that was carried out in the General Hospital of the South Guasmo, in the observation and observation areas. We conclude that in two hours of urine sampling it offers the same clinical informtion as the 24-hour urine collection (P = <0.01).
