Elevated urinary protein caused by various kidney diseases, most of the time 24-hour urine protein quantitative is relatively constant, but within a certain range of 24-hour urine volume the more the higher the urinary protein.
In normal adults, the 24-hour urine protein quantification is less than 150 mg, even if the urine volume is greater than normal, the urine protein quantification should be within the normal range. In case of various chronic nephritis or secondary nephropathy resulting in elevated urinary protein, the larger the urine volume the more urinary protein the patient has within a certain range.
Therefore, in order to reflect the true amount of urine protein quantification of patients with kidney disease, when doing 24-hour urine protein quantification, you can’t drink too much water or deliberately control the amount of water consumption, resulting in too much or too little urine will make the urine protein quantification is not accurate enough.
In addition to strenuous exercise, fever and other conditions can also lead to increased urinary protein, so when doing 24-hour urine protein quantification, you should avoid fever, strenuous exercise and other conditions. If there is any abnormality of urine protein, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to find out the cause and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
