Maximum urine osmolality was measured during a 24-hour control period in normal ambulant and working subjects and hospital inpatients and compared with that achieved after intramuscular injection of 4 microgram desamino-cys-1-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP). Most of the normal subjects passed maximally concentrated urine at some time during the control period. The results suggest that in less active subjects or hospital inpatients the DDAVP test is a suitable method of assessing renal concentrating ability.
在正常可走动及工作的受试者以及住院患者的24小时对照期内测量最大尿渗透压，并将其与肌肉注射4微克去氨基-半胱氨酸-1-8-D-精氨酸加压素（DDAVP）后所达到的最大尿渗透压进行比较。大多数正常受试者在对照期的某个时间排出了最大浓缩尿。结果表明，对于活动较少的受试者或住院患者，DDAVP试验是评估肾脏浓缩能力的一种合适方法。
