مستخلص: | Repeated measures of urinary salt excretion are the best compromise between reliability and convenience for estimating dietary salt intake. In order to assess the accuracy of the Uropaper urinary salt titrator stick (giving discrete readings of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 or 14 g/l of NaCl), 312 urine samples were analysed both with the stick and with an ion-selective electrode. There was a good stick-electrode correlation in all the 312 samples (r = 0.84). With a tolerance of +/- 1 g/l, the percentages of correct estimations dropped from 82% to 33% with increasing concentrations of NaCl in the urinary sample. For NaCl concentrations greater than 8 g/l (137 mmol/l) the error in the stick measurement consisted almost exclusively of overestimation of the electrode readings. These results were unaffected by the concentration of urinary potassium. No discrepancies were found among three different readers. This stick is easy to use and measures, with reasonable accuracy, low urinary NaCl concentrations. It could be useful for self-monitoring during low NaCl diets. |
