Abstract
• Determining the cause of acutely deteriorating renal function is a common problem in clinical nephrology. The fractional excretion of filtered sodium (FENa) has been demonstrated to be a reliably discriminating test between prerenal azotemia and acute tubular necrosis. However, with increasing clinical use of the FENa, numerous reports of low FENa (Arch Intern Med1985;145:108-112)This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
