Interactive FENa (Fractional Excretion of Sodium) calculator. Requires the calculator gadget.
Usage: {{FENa Calculator}}
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Serum Sodium (mEq/L) | |
| Serum Creatinine (mg/dL) | |
| Urine Sodium (mEq/L) | |
| Urine Creatinine (mg/dL) | |
| FENa (%) | % |
| Interpretation (in setting of oliguria/AKI) | |
|---|---|
| <1% | Pre-renal azotemia — Kidneys are sodium-avid (hypoperfusion, hypovolemia, heart failure, cirrhosis). Consider volume resuscitation. |
| >2% | Intrinsic renal disease — ATN, AIN, or glomerulonephritis. Kidneys unable to concentrate urine. |
| 1–2% | Indeterminate — May be seen in early ATN or with mixed etiologies. Clinical correlation required. |
| Important Caveats | |
