Screening for renal tubular acidosis is usually not recommended for asymptomatic patients. Screening is only recommended for patients with increased risk of having proximal RTA or metabolic disorders associated with the development of Fanconi syndrome.
Screening
- Screening for renal tubular acidosis is usually not recommended for asymptomatic patients.[1]
- Screening is only recommended for patients with increased risk of having proximal RTA or metabolic disorders associated with the development of Fanconi syndrome.
- Screening evaluation include measurement of :
- Serum phosphate
- Urinary glucose
- Urinary amino acids
- Urinary phosphate excretion
