PAH clearance
text:
Para-aminohippurate (PAH) clearance is a method used in renal physiology to measure renal plasma flow, which is a measure of renal function. PAH is completely removed from blood that passes through the kidneys, and therefore the rate at which the kidneys can clear PAH from the blood reflects total renal plasma flow. The concentration of PAH is measured in one arterial blood sample (PPAH) and one urine sample(UPAH). The urine flow (V) is also measured. Renal perfusion flow is then calculated by:
