LOINC code70954-3
nameStandard process followed for residual renal function assessed in calculating Kt/V [ESRD]
descriptionIndicates whether the standard process of assessing Residual Renal Function was performed when calculating the Weekly Kt/V. K (clearance) multiplied by t (time) is a volume (since mL/min x min = mL, or L/hr x hr = L), and (K x t) can be thought of as the mL or L of fluid (blood in this case) cleared of urea (or any other solute) during the course of a single treatment. V also is a volume, expressed in mL or L. So the ratio of K x t / V is a so-called "dimensionless ratio" and can be thought of as a multiple of the volume of plasma cleared of urea divided by the distribution volume of urea. When Kt/V = 1.0, a volume of blood equal to the distribution volume of urea has been completely cleared of urea.
