Renal elimination of electrolytes in the newborn

  • Chapter
Die Physiologische Entwicklung des Kindes

Abstract

In the infant the regulation of the urinary elimination of electrolytes depends on renal and extrarenal factors. The anatomical structure of the kidney is in full evolution, the supply of energy and enzymes is still developing, and circulatory, nervous and hormonal influences play a part in this regulation.
