I am interested to know whether any labs in the UK are routinely using urine myoglobin assays (qualitative or quantitative) for the diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis and in particular
the decision as to whether or not to use forced alkaline diuresis.
I am happy to collate any responses and post back on the mail base.
Many thanks to you all.
