Bedtime reading: What do I need to know about proteinuria? Information for patients

The Department of Health have produced a leaflet for the public to explain proteinuria.

The leaflet aimed at patients explains the meaning of proteinuria, cases, signs and tests to determine proteinuria. It also covers how to manage diabetes and blood pressure with proteinuria. This is part of a pack of information on proteinuria testing. Information sheets for GPs and labs have been published on the Department of Health website.
