Valores referenciales de proteínas totales y albúminas séricas en pacientes adultos para evitar problemas nutricionales y enfermedades metabólicas, machala, 2019.

Abstract

The objective of the research was to establish reference values of total serum proteins and albumin in adult patients, through the analysis of results of a clinical laboratory, to apply it as a standard in nutritional problems and metabolic diseases. In order to verify biological reference intervals of biochemical indicators of total proteins and serum albumin, a descriptive, analytical study was carried out. The data obtained from the Solidarity Clinical Laboratory corresponded to 194 patients aged between 18 and 35 years, of which 165 were female and 29 were male. We found that, of 194 patients who were analyzed for total protein analysis, 180 patients were within normal parameters, the results of 12 patients were below the normal parameter limit, and 2 patients maintained values above the normal limit. . Similarly, of 194 patients who were once analyzed serum albumin, 185 patients remained within normal parameters and results of 9 patients were below the lower limit of the normal parameter. Total protein studies, 180 patients corresponding to 92.78% were within normal values, 12 patients equivalent to 6.18% results are under the normal parameter, and 2 patients corresponding to 1.03% Their results were found over the normal parameter. The serum albumin analyzes, 185 patients corresponding to 95.36% of patients with normal values and 9 patients equivalent to 4.63% of the results affected under the normal parameter.
