The Role of Urinary Aldosterone for the Diagnosis of Primary Aldosteronism

Original language description

When diagnosing primary aldosteronism, the measurement of urinary aldosterone after oral sodium loading is one of the currently recommended confirmatory tests. The aim of the study was to assess the repeatability and interpretation of urinary aldosteronein patients examined for suspected primary aldosteronism. Sixty-four hypertensive patients with suspected primary aldosteronism were prospectively enrolled and examined according to the study protocol. After antihypertensive medications interfering withrenin-angiotensin-aldosterone system were withdrawn for at least 2 weeks, the confirmatory testing was performed: oral sodium loading preceded the collection of 24-h urine sample and subsequent saline infusion test. The identical procedures were repeated after 2 weeks. The concordant results of both saline infusion tests served for confirmation/exclusion of primary aldosteronism. Forty-nine patients were included in data analysis. Primary aldosteronism was excluded in 16, and confirmed
