What is Kidney diseases about?

## BACKGROUND-AIM Introduction: Parathyroid hormone provides important information in chronic renal failure, especially in hemodialysis patients. Objectives: It is known that parathyroid hormone (PTH) results obtained by Centaur and Liaison technologies are different due to the lack of international standardization. We intend to demonstrate that these differences are consistent through the measuring range of the assays and that both methods can be used to follow hemodialysis patients as they provide similar responses to physicians, as long as the dosing of PTH is based on the same method. Based on the results of this study and in the guidelines of the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI), Euromedic Portugal aims to standardize the response of all the group's laboratories to requests by physicians for the determination of PTH in hemodialysis patients.
