Controlling dialysate quality is critically important to hemodialysis patient health. Complications as minor as nausea and fatigue or as severe as metabolic acidosis and sepsis can result if dialysate composition is incorrect. All the factors that ultimately affect dialysate composition must therefore be carefully monitored and controlled: proper proportioning and mixing of concentrates with ...
Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) and propionic acidemia (PA) are rare intoxication-type inborn errors of metabolism that are characterized by acute metabolic decompensations, acidosis and hyperammonemia leading to severe organ damage, seizures, developmental deficits, and premature death. In the United States, about 1 in 70,000 newborns is diagnosed with MMA, and 1 in 240,000 is diagnosed with PA. ...

More acid urine (lower pH values) is found in case of an increased protein metabolism, high fever, serious diarrhoea and metabolic acidosis (serious form of diabetes mellitus). Alkalinity (increased pH value) may be noted in urinary tract infections, respiratory or metabolic alka-losis.- Early detection of diabetes mellitus- ...
