Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Potassium is an important electrolyte in the body and can help monitor kidney function. Testing urine for potassium can help evaluate electrolyte balance in patients with suspected renal disease. Prealbumin and procalcitonin are not directly related to electrolyte balance, and progesterone is typically not used to evaluate renal function.
