🔥What are causes of Foamy urine in absence of Proteinuria⁉️
#Tweetorial

💡Any surfactant in urine can cause frothuria‼️
👉Surfactant has amphiphilic properties which helps trap pocket of gas in liquid and produce foam

Ref-CJASN
#NephroNotes #FOAMed #MedTwitter #MedEd Image
🔥How do you define foamy urine⁉️

💡Not everything bubbly in urine pot is Frothuria‼️

☄Definition-
Appearance & "persistence" of "multiple" layers of small to medium bubbles in voided urine

🚫Single layer of large bubbles- Neglect‼️

🔥Have you ever wondered why beer is frothy⁉️
