HUBUNGAN TINGKAT ASUPAN PROTEIN DENGAN KADAR UREUM DAN KREATININ DARAH PADA PENDERITA GAGAL GINJAL KRONIK DI RSUD Dr. MOEWARDI SURAKARTA
Abstract: Chronic kidney
failure is a disease caused by chronic deteriorating of renal function. It is
marked by the increase of blood creatinine and ureum. Its primary symptoms are
nausea, vomiting, anorexia and other disturbances causing inadequate protein
intake. Chronic kidney failure patients will have abnormal concentration of
plasma amino acid. Ureum is a best predictor to diagnose a kidney failure when
a toxic uraemic is detected. Creatinine is an endogenous metabolism that is
used to assess glomerulus function. It is generally derived from muscle
metabolism. This research aims were to understand and analyze the correlation between
protein intake and contents of blood creatinine and ureum of chronic kidney
failure patients. Protein intakes of respondents were in poor category (100%),
high content of blood ureum (90.9%), and high content of creatinine (93.9%).
Average protein intake was 20.11%. Average content of blood ureum was 95.3 mg/dl,
and average content of blood creatinine was 3.3 mg/dl. Correlation test
indicated that there was not any correlation between protein intake and
contents of blood creatinine and ureum.
