Abstract
BACKGROUND: Sodium intake is correlated with the development of hypertension. Guyton's principals suggest that the 24-hour urinary sodium excretion reflects sodium ingestion over the same period. 24-hour urine collections are arduous to collect, so many centers use spot urinary measurements instead. We compared spot to matched 24-hour urinary electrolyte measurements. METHODS: We examined 419 hypertensive patients from the UCL Complex Hypertension Clinic. 77 had matched and complete 24-hour and spot urinary and serum biochemistry to examine.We compared the spot and 24-hour urinary; sodium concentration, Na/Cr ratio, FENa, Kawasaki and Tanaka estimated sodium excretion as well as the potassium concentration, K/Cr ratio, Kawasaki and Tanaka potassium excretion. RESULTS: Our cohort was 58% male and the median age was 41 years. The 24-hour and spot Na concentrations correlated moderately (r = 0.4633, P < 0.0001). The 24-hour and spot Na/creatinine ratios correlated weakly (r = 0.2625, P = 0.0194). The 24-hour and spot FENa results showed a weak negative correlation (r = -0.222, P = ns). The 24-hour sodium excretion and the Kawasaki-derived spot urine sodium excretion correlated moderately (r = 0.3118, P = 0.0052). All Bland-Altman analyses showed poor agreement.The 24-hour and spot potassium concentrations correlated very poorly (r = 0.1158, P = ns). The 24-hour and spot urinary K/creatinine ratios correlated weakly (r = 0.47, P ≤ 0.0001). 24-hour and Kawasaki and Tanaka estimated potassium excretions correlated much better (r = 0.58, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Spot urinary measurements of sodium give a very poor understanding of the natriuresis occurring over the same 24-hour period. The Kawasaki and Tanaka estimations of the 24-hour sodium excretion showed a much lower correlation than previously reported. © American Journal of Hypertension, Ltd 2019. All rights reserved.
