    Proteinuria by the method of sulfosalicylic acid and its relationship with glomerular filtration calculated by several formulas in pregnant women at a Maternity Hospital in Lima, 2017

    The objective was to determine the relationship between proteinuria by the sulfosalicylic acid method and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) calculated by several formulas in pregnant women at a maternity hospital in Lima in 2017. This is an applied, observational, retrospective, descriptive, and correlational study. A total of 244 results meeting the selection criteria were collected. Of these, 64% presented proteinuria by the sulfosalicylic acid method, 5.7% had traces, and 30.3% were negative. Using different GFR formulas, the proteinuria results were correlated, and no relationship was found between the study variables (ANOVA, p > 0.05). Therefore, this method is not a useful tool when a test is needed to accurately identify renal function in pregnant women. For a better study of this test and comparison with GFR formulas, it is recommended to conduct a study with absorbance readings of the test (ASS), which would provide a quantitative result and greatly assist in the diagnosis of renal function.
