Two nomograms are given for use in calculating
standard, C[unknown], or maximum, Cm, urea clearance.
The first nomogram calculates the urine flow rate,
f, from the urine collection time and volume data.
With the second nomogram, values of f and urea
nitrogen concentrations in blood serum (or
plasma) and urine are used to calculate either C[unknown]
or Cm, according to the value of f. There is no intermediate calculation of
f. Examples of the use
of the two nomograms in the calculation of C[unknown] or
Cm are given.
