Effective Renal Plasma Flow (ERPF)
[[Effective Renal Plasma Flow]] (ERPF)


The clearance of PAH, which is extracted almost completely from the plasma during its passage through the renal circulation, constitutes a measure of ERPF. Hence:
* The clearance of [[PAH]], which is extracted almost completely from the plasma during its passage through the renal circulation, constitutes a measure of ERPF. * Hence:


ERPF = UPAHV/PPAH
: ERPF = [[UPAHV]]/[[PPAH]]


Where UPAH = concentration of PAH (mg/mL) in the urine
: Where [[UPAH]] = concentration of [[PAH]] (mg/mL) in the urine


V = rate of urine excretion (mL/min), and
: V = rate of urine excretion (mL/min), and


PPAH = plasma concentration of PAH (mg/mL).
: PPAH = plasma concentration of [[PAH]] (mg/mL).


Example:
* Example:

: [[UPAH]] = 8.0 mg/mL


V = 1.5 mL/min
: V = 1.5 mL/min


PPAH = 0.02 mg/mL
: [[PPAH]] = 0.02 mg/mL


ERPF = 8.0 x 1.5/0.02 = 600 mL/min
: ERPF = 8.0 x 1.5/0.02 = 600 mL/min


Based on PAH clearance studies, the normal values for ERPF are:

The quantity of PAH secreted by the tubules (TmPAH) is given by the difference between the total rate of excretion (UPAHV) and the quantity filtered by the glomeruli (GFR x PPAH). Hence:
* The quantity of [[PAH]] secreted by the tubules (TmPAH) is given by the difference between the total rate of excretion (UPAHV) and the quantity filtered by the glomeruli (GFR x PPAH). Hence:


TmPAH = UPAHV – (GFR x PPAH x 0.83)
: TmPAH = UPAHV – (GFR x PPAH x 0.83)


The factor, 0.83, corrects for that portion of PAH which is bound to plasma protein and hence is unfilterable.

Calculations

Effective Renal Plasma Flow (ERPF)

  • The clearance of PAH, which is extracted almost completely from the plasma during its passage through the renal circulation, constitutes a measure of ERPF. * Hence:
ERPF = UPAHV/PPAH
Where UPAH = concentration of PAH (mg/mL) in the urine
V = rate of urine excretion (mL/min), and
PPAH = plasma concentration of PAH (mg/mL).
  • Example:
UPAH = 8.0 mg/mL
V = 1.5 mL/min
PPAH = 0.02 mg/mL
ERPF = 8.0 x 1.5/0.02 = 600 mL/min
  • Based on PAH clearance studies, the normal values for ERPF are:
men 675 ± 150 mL/min
women 595 ± 125 mL/min
  • Maximum Tubular Secretory
(TmPAH ) Mechanism
  • The quantity of PAH secreted by the tubules (TmPAH) is given by the difference between the total rate of excretion (UPAHV) and the quantity filtered by the glomeruli (GFR x PPAH). Hence:
TmPAH = UPAHV – (GFR x PPAH x 0.83)
  • The factor, 0.83, corrects for that portion of PAH which is bound to plasma protein and hence is unfilterable.
  • Example:
UPAH = 9.55 mg/mL
V = 16.68 mL/min
GFR = 120 mL/min
PPAH = 0.60 mg/mL
Then TmPAH = 9.55 x 16.68 – (120 x 0.60 x 0.83) = 100 mg/min.
  • Average normal values of TmPAH are 80-90 mg/min.
  • The value of the expression UPAHV, used in calculations of ERPF and TmPAH, may be found by determining the amount of PAH in a measured volume of urine excreted within a specific period of time.
  • These calculations are based on a body surface area of 1.73 m2. Corrections for variations in surface area are made by multiplying the values obtained for ERPF and TmPAH by 1.73/A, where A is the subject surface area.

General
  • For measurement of ERPF, small doses of PAH are used. However, in research procedures to measure TmPAH, high plasma levels are required to saturate the capacity of the tubular cells. During these procedures, the intravenous administration of PAH solutions should be carried out slowly and with caution. The patient should be continuously observed for any adverse reactions.

Adverse Reactions

Clinical Trials Experience

  • Patients may have a sensation of warmth or the desire to defecate or urinate during or shortly following initiation of infusion.

Postmarketing Experience

There is limited information regarding Postmarketing Experience of Aminohippurate in the drug label.

Drug Interactions

  • Probenecid depresses tubular secretion of certain weak acids such as PAH. Therefore, patients receiving probenecid will have erroneously low ERPF and TmPAH values.

Use in Specific Populations

Pregnancy

Pregnancy Category (FDA): C

  • Animal reproduction studies have not been done with PAH. It is also not known whether PAH can cause fetal harm when given to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. PAH should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.


Pregnancy Category (AUS):

  • Australian Drug Evaluation Committee (ADEC) Pregnancy Category

There is no Australian Drug Evaluation Committee (ADEC) guidance on usage of Aminohippurate in women who are pregnant.

Labor and Delivery

There is no FDA guidance on use of Aminohippurate during labor and delivery.

Nursing Mothers

  • It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when PAH is administered to a nursing woman.

Pediatric Use

  • Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.

Geriatic Use

  • Clinical studies of PAH did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients.

Gender
