Overview

Laboratory findings in HIV-associated nephropathy include: proteinuria, elevated serum creatinine levels, decreased GFR, dyslipidemia, and CD4 counts below 200 cells/mm3 .[1][2]

Laboratory Findings

HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) can not be diagnosed clinically or with noninvasive measures such as laboratory findings or ultrasound.[3][4][5]

Laboratory findings in HIV-associated nephropathy include:[1][2]

  • Proteinuria
  • Elevated serum creatinine levels
  • Decreased GFR
  • Dyslipidemia
  • CD4 counts below 200 cells/mm3

Routine laboratory tests that may be ordered to help in identify HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) may include:

Blood Work-up

Supplemental Test

Urinalysis
