In a healthy person, the presence of albumin is rarely found in the urine (less than 30 mg/day) because it is normally retained in the bloodstream by the kidneys. Albuminuria could lead to diabetic nephropathy, damaging the nerves in the body due to high blood sugar levels, as well as cause cardiac complications. To prevent vascular damage, constant monitoring is necessary to check for microalbuminaruia."],"Page image":["File:Uristik2.jpg"],"Page language":["en"],"Page license":["CC-BY-SA-3.0"],"Page parent":["Global Health Medical Device Compendium"],"Page root":["Global Health Medical Device Compendium"],"Page title":["Global Health Medical Device Compendium/Uristik"],"Page views":[406],"Page year":["Sunday, 01-Jan-12 00:00:00 UTC"],"Modification date":["Thursday, 10-Sep-26 14:09:01 UTC"]}
