Overview
Genetic screening for Bartter syndrome mutated genes can be performed among individuals with unexplained hypertension and hypokalemia.
Screening
- Genetic screening for Bartter syndrome pathogenic genes can be performed among individuals with unexplained hypertension and hypokalemia.[1]
- There is an insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for Bartter syndrome.
