Patient Participation in Urine Specific Gravity Screening for Arginine Vasopressin Deficiency in an Inpatient Neurosurgical Clinic

Although patients are less accurate than nurses in measuring specific gravity, they can reliably screen for hypotonic urine in AVP-deficiency diagnostics using urine test strips. A higher cut-off point improves diagnostic accuracy, enhances patient participation and reduces the screening workload for nurses.

Abstract

Although patients are less accurate than nurses in measuring specific gravity, they can reliably screen for hypotonic urine in AVP-deficiency diagnostics using urine test strips. A higher cut-off point improves diagnostic accuracy, enhances patient participation and reduces the screening workload for nurses.
