Description
The concept of nitrogen balance dictates that the difference between nitrogen intake and loss reflects gain or loss of total body protein respectively. If more nitrogen (protein) is given to the patient than is lost, the patient is considered to be anabolic or “in positive nitrogen balance."[2]
Nitrogen Balance = Nitrogen intake - Nitrogen loss
Blood urea nitrogen can be used in estimating nitrogen balance, as the urea concentration in urine.
