What is Total Daily Osmolar Output?

Total daily osmolar output is a measure of the total amount of solutes excreted in the urine and other losses over a 24-hour period. It is an important parameter in assessing kidney function and fluid balance in the body. This calculation can help healthcare providers understand a patient’s hydration status and guide treatment decisions, especially in critical care settings.

Example Calculation

Example 1:

Step 1: Calculate the total daily osmolar output:

\[ TDO = 2 \times 500 + 100 = 1000 + 100 = 1100 \text{ mOsm} \]

Example 2:

Step 1: Calculate the total daily osmolar output:

\[ TDO = 1.5 \times 600 + 150 = 900 + 150 = 1050 \text{ mOsm} \]
