 ==Overview==
-'''Bartter syndrome''' is a rare inherited defect in the [[thick ascending limb]] of the [[loop of Henle]]. It is characterized by low potassium levels ([[hypokalemia]]), decreased acidity of blood ([[alkalosis]]), and normal to low blood pressure. There are two types of Bartter syndrome: neonatal and classic. A closely associated disorder, [[Gitelman syndrome]], is milder than both subtypes of Bartter syndrome. The condition is named after Dr [[Frederic Bartter]], who first described it in 1962.<ref name=Bartter>{{cite journal | author=Bartter FC, Pronove P, Gill JR Jr, MacCardle RC | title=Hyperplasia of the juxtaglomerular complex with hyperaldosteronism and hypokalemic alkalosis.
