Physician misconception of «adequate phosphatemia» may be a determinant factor for hyperphosphatemia [Importancia del concepto «fosfatemia adecuada» como factor de riesgo de hiperfosfatemia]
Hyperphosphatemia is an important risk factor of secondary hyperparathyroidism and extraosseous calcifications in chronic renal failure patients. In this study our hypothesis is that physicians misconception of adequate phosphatemia is a risk factor for hyperphosphatemia. In 1999 GEMOR sent a renal...

Those centers that aimed for phosphatemia between 5.5 and 6.5 mg/dl, had a higher percentage of patients with phosphatemia above 6 mg/dl than those aiming for between 4.5 and 5.5 mg/dl (42.8 ± 16.7 vs 27.1 ± 15.2% respectively, p = 0.007), and had higher mean of phosphatemia (6.4 ± 0.7 vs 5.3 ± 0.7 mg/dl respectively, p = 0.0001), than the last group.
