nameCreatinine [Mass/volume] in Urine from Fetus
descriptionFetal urine analysis for various biochemicals can indicate abnormalities in renal function prior to birth. Testing performed in the early stages of development can help catch early warning signs of renal issues that could potentially be corrected or help make decisions for the unborn child's care.[PMID: 1547172][PMID: 25412852] Urine is collected while the fetus is in utero by vesicostomy or fetal cystoscopy. Results are stored in the mother's chart and distinctive from the mother's results.
