我们收集了24名非多饮精神病患者和8名多饮精神分裂症患者的每日尿量（DUV）。分别于上午7点和下午4点采集尿液标本，测定尿肌酐浓度（UCr）。使用早晨体重和UCr测量值，我们比较了实际DUV与使用3种方法估计DUV的估计DUV。与非多饮患者相比，多饮患者DUV的每种估计方法均具有上级优势。我们讨论的优点和缺点，试图估计DUV在精神病患者。一种方法简单，但不太准确。剩下的两种方法给出了类似的结果，但其中一种方法比另一种方法更容易使用。(C)1997年Elsevier Science B.V.
We collected daily urine volumes (DUV) from 24 nonpolydipsic psychiatric patients and eight polydipsic schizophrenic patients. At 7AM and 4PM, we collected spot urine samples and measured urine creatinine concentration (UCr). Using morning weight and the UCr measurements, we compared actual DUV with estimated DUV using 3 methods to estimate DUV currently available in the literature. Each method of estimating DUV was superior among the polydipsic patients compared with the nonpolydipsic patients. We discuss the strengths and weaknesses of trying to estimate DUV in psychiatric patients. One method was simple but less accurate. The two remaining methods gave similar results but one method was substantially easier to use than the other. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
