Urea Post Dialysis
What does Urea Post Dialysis measure?
Urea Post Dialysis measures the level of urea, a waste product formed from protein breakdown, after a dialysis session. It may be used with pre-dialysis urea results and other clinical information to help assess how effectively dialysis is removing urea from the blood. Healthcare professionals may order this test when monitoring dialysis adequacy and supporting ongoing management of kidney failure.
