Is iothalamate measured by capillary electrophoresis a suitable alternative to radiolabeled inulin in renal micropuncture?
These data demonstrate that iothalamate can replace inulin to measure Jv in microperfusion and free-flow micropuncture experiments. Since iothalamate analysis by CE technique is a fast, easy and highly reproducible technique, it may become the gold standard method for the detection of fluid reabsorption in microperfused nephron segments.
Improving patient safety hinges on the ability of health care providers to accurately identify, disclose, and report medical errors. Interventions must account for differences in error identification, disclosure, and reporting by provider type.
