Prevalence of Proteinuria and Other Abnormalities in Urinalysis Performed in the Urology Clinic

Abstract Objective To compare the prevalence of proteinuria in the urology clinic with other outpatient settings. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is classified according to cause, GFR, and proteinuria. Proteinuria may be more prevalent patients with known CKD, renal disorders (benign or malignant), and...

Zusammenfassung:	Abstract Objective To compare the prevalence of proteinuria in the urology clinic with other outpatient settings. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is classified according to cause, GFR, and proteinuria. Proteinuria may be more prevalent patients with known CKD, renal disorders (benign or malignant), and/or after urologic surgery. Methods Cross-sectional study of 3 populations undergoing urinalysis (UA) testing: general outpatients (n=20,334), urology outpatients (n=5,023), and kidney cancer patients (n=1,016). Proteinuria was classified under KDIGO guidelines: A1 (300mg). Results Proteinuria was detected throughout a community-based health system in 8.6% of UA (8.2%:A2; 0.4%:A3). In comparison, 18.6% of urology office-performed UA had proteinuria (16.0 %:A2, 2.5%:A3) (p
