[Endogenous creatinine clearing during cytostatic therapy]
Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift (1946)
|November 30, 1984
Abstract:
25 patients with a malign neoplasia were treated with cytostatics. The endogenous creatinine clearance as a parameter of the kidney function was checked. Patients who had no side-effects, did not show important changes in kidney function immediately and 10 days after the treatment. Patients who had hyperemesis and diarrhoea showed an impairment, patients with a hyperkinetic reaction improvement of kidney function. General hyperhydration during a cytostatic treatment is not necessary, it can even be dangerous for patients with a hyperkinetic reaction.
