About the test
Urine chloride excretion approximates the dietary intake. The chloride content of most foods parallels that of sodium. An increase in urine chloride may result from water-deficient dehydration, diabetic acidosis, Addison's Disease, and salt-losing renal disease. Decreased urine levels are seen in congestive heart failure, severe diaphoresis, and in hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis due to prolonged vomiting.
