  • Title: Role of the laboratory in management of acute and chronic renal failure.
    Author: del Greco F, Krumlovsky FA.
    Journal: Ann Clin Lab Sci; 1981; 11(4):283-91. PubMed ID: 7023343.
    Abstract:
    The initial assessment and differential diagnosis of acute renal failure is greatly facilitated by laboratory procedures of varying sensitivity and specificity; these are reviewed in detail. Patients with chronic renal failure receiving maintenance dialysis exhibit many laboratory abnormalities which may differ significantly between patients treated with hemodialysis and those receiving peritoneal dialysis. These are also reviewed.
