Interpretive Summry Test: Symmetric dimethylrginine A more relible kidney function test Introduction to New Kidney Test: SDMA (pdf) Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf) Description: Test is more relible indictor of kidney function thn cretinine becuse SDMA detects declining kidney function erlier nd is not impcted by muscle mss. Cretinine cn miss erly function loss nd be flsely decresed in ptients with reduced muscle mss. SDMA increses in cute nd ctive injury s well s chronic kidney disese. When SDMA is incresed, ction should be tken. For informtion on recommended ctions, refer to the Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf) which provides informtion on how to Investigte, Mnge nd Monitor kidney disese. For dditionl informtion bout SDMA, plese visit www.idexx.com/sdma Norml ( 14 µg/dl) Common Cuses Norml SDMA with norml or low cretinine Norml kidney function is likely If SDMA nd/or cretinine is t the upper limit of the reference intervl, erly kidney disese cnnot be ruled out. Evlute complete urinlysis to confirm there is no other evidence of kidney disese. Norml SDMA with high cretinine This combintion of results is rre. If severe hemolysis is present, SDMA results my be decresed by 10-25% in dogs nd 10-20% in cts. SDMA nd cretinine cn both be ffected by biologic nd ssy vribility resulting in fluctutions round the upper end of the reference intervl. This cn be seen with well-mnged stble chronic kidney disese (CKD) nd results will likely lign s disese progresses. Musculr dogs with norml kidney function my hve norml SDMA nd cretinine just exceeding the reference intervl. Assess body condition nd complete urinlysis to help determine significnce of these results. Certin breeds, including greyhounds nd Gret Pyrenees, hve higher cretinine concentrtions thn other breeds nd cretinine results often fll bove the reference intervl while their SDMA concentrtions remin norml. If kidney disese is still suspected, the pet should be evluted for other evidence of kidney disese. A complete urinlysis should be performed to evlute for inpproprite specific grvity, proteinuri or other evidence of kidney disese. Determine if there is supportive history, physicl exmintion findings, bnorml renl imging or other lbortory evidence of kidney disese. Generted by VetConnect PLUS My 19, 2017 11:26 AM Pge 1 of 5
Incresed (>14 µg/dl) Common Cuses High SDMA with norml or low cretinine Renl disese SDMA is more relible indictor of kidney function thn cretinine. SDMA detects declining kidney function erlier. Cretinine cn miss erly function loss. SDMA is not impcted by muscle mss. Cretinine cn be flsely decresed in ptients with poor muscle mss. SDMA increses in cute nd ctive kidney injury s well s CKD. Erly detection with SDMA provides the opportunity to investigte for ctive or cute cuses of kidney injury which might be reversible if identified nd treted promptly. Exmples would include pyelonephritis, cute kidney injury secondry to infectious cuses (e.g. leptospirosis) or drug therpy (e.g. nonsteroidl nti-inflmmtory drugs). Erly identifiction of CKD llows for stging ccording to the Interntionl Renl Interest Society (IRIS) CKD stging guidelines (once determined it is stble), nd erly tretment for the pproprite stge of disese ccording to the IRIS CKD tretment guidelines. For more informtion bout SDMA nd the IRIS CKD guidelines, visit www.idexx.com/sdma-iris. For informtion on ctions to be tken when SDMA is incresed, refer to the Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf) which provides informtion on how to Investigte, Mnge nd Monitor the probble kidney disese. If SDMA is 15-19 µ g/dl, follow the guidelines below: If there is other evidence of kidney disese, ction should be tken. For informtion on ctions to be tken, refer to the Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf). Other evidence of kidney disese includes supportive history (weight loss, decresed ppetite, polydipsi, polyuri), supportive physicl exmintion findings (plpble kidney bnormlities), nemi, incresed BUN or phosphorus, cretinine incresing within the reference intervl, inpproprite urine specific grvity (<1.030 in dog or <1.035 in ct), proteinuri, ctive urinry sediment, unexplined hypertension nd/or bnorml imging. If there is no other evidence of disese, recheck in 2-4 weeks. If SDMA is persistently 15-19 µg/dl, regrdless of whether there is other evidence of kidney disese, ction should be tken. For informtion on ctions to be tken, refer to the IDEXX SDMA Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf). If SDMA 20 µg/dl, regrdless of whether there is other evidence of kidney disese, ction should be tken. For informtion on ctions to be tken, refer to the Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf). In puppies, the SDMA reference intervl is 0-16 µg/dl. SDMA reference intervl studies re underwy for kittens nd greyhounds, nd results my lso be slightly higher nd should be interpreted in light of other findings. High SDMA with high cretinine Renl disese Kidney disese is probble nd ction should be tken. For informtion on ctions to be tken, refer to the Test dignostic lgorithm (pdf). Confirm tht there is other evidence of kidney disese such s supportive history, bnorml kidney plption, inpproprite urine specific grvity, proteinuri, nd/or bnorml imging. Infectious, inflmmtory, toxic nd ischemic renl diseses re most common. Uncommon Cuses High SDMA with high cretinine Renl disese Congenitl kidney disese, myloidosis, nd renl neoplsi re less common. Dehydrtion If dehydrtion results in reduction in glomerulr filtrtion rte (GFR) nd prerenl zotemi, then SDMA should increse long with cretinine. Assess hydrtion sttus nd urine specific grvity for evidence of dehydrtion. Generted by VetConnect PLUS My 19, 2017 11:26 AM Pge 2 of 5
Postrenl If ureterl or urethrl obstruction results in decrese in GFR, then SDMA will increse long with cretinine. Relted Findings Renl disese Incresed BUN, cretinine nd phosphorus SDMA cn be incresed prior to development of zotemi Electrolyte bnormlities, metbolic cidosis, hypo- or hyperclcemi Mild to moderte nonregenertive nemi Inpproprite urine specific grvity Urinry csts, pyuri, hemturi, proteinuri, microlbuminuri, glucosuri, bcteriuri Positive urine culture Incresed blood pressure Protein-losing nephropthy (glomerulonephritis or myloidosis) Decresed lbumin Incresed urine protein:cretinine rtio High cholesterol in nephrotic syndrome Positive PCR or serology for leptospirosis, Lyme disese, ehrlichiosis, or other infections Abnorml kidney imging findings such s bnorml renl size nd/or structure History of kidney toxin exposure Additionl Informtion Physiology SDMA is molecule formed by posttrnsltionl methyltion of the mino cid L-rginine in the nucleus of cells by the protein-rginine methyltrnsferse enzymes. During protein degrdtion these methylted rginine molecules re relesed. Biologiclly, SDMA is considered n inert molecule. SDMA is eliminted by renl excretion; therefore, blood concentrtions re ffected by chnges in GFR, mking SDMA good mrker for kidney disese. SDMA is biomrker for kidney function nd hs been shown to rise in proportion to cretinine nd is inversely relted to GFR (mesured by iohexol clernce) in dogs nd cts with kidney disese. SDMA increses erlier thn cretinine in dogs nd cts with kidney disese. SDMA increse in cute nd ctive kidney disese s well s chronic kidney disese. SDMA increses on verge with 40% loss of kidney function versus cretinine, which does not increse until up to 75% of kidney function is lost. In cts with CKD, SDMA increses on verge of 17 months before cretinine. In dogs with CKD, SDMA increses on verge of 9.8 months before cretinine. SDMA is not impcted by len body mss. Reductions in len body mss occur with ging, nd chronic disese cn lower cretinine concentrtions, but SDMA increses s kidney function declines with no correltion to len body mss. SDMA is more relible indictor of kidney function in cts with hyperthyroidism becuse SDMA is not impcted by len muscle mss nd ppers to be less impcted by hyperfiltrtion. SDMA is specific for kidney function. It is not impcted by vrious diseses including liver disese, Cushing's disese nd hert disese, unless there is concurrent kidney disese. It does not chnge postprndilly unlike cretinine which cn be rtificilly incresed postprndilly especilly fter ingestion of met. Week-to-week vribility of iohexol clernce, serum cretinine nd SDMA re similr in dogs with stble renl disese. In puppies, SDMA reference intervl is 0-16 µg/dl. SDMA reference intervl studies re underwy for kittens nd greyhounds, nd results my lso be slightly higher nd should lwys be interpreted in light of other findings.

Dignostic Methodology The Test is vlidted for veterinry use for both cts nd dogs per Clinicl Lbortory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) guidelines. The test uses ptented nd proprietry ntibody tht requires no chemicl pretretment of specimens nd specificlly binds to SDMA for consistent nd ccurte mesurement. Over the lst five yers, IDEXX hs invested over $400 million in reserch nd development in order to bring you innovtions like the Test. is mesured t IDEXX Reference Lbortories using high throughput immunossy. No informtion is currently vilble on how to interpret SDMA in species other thn dogs nd cts. SDMA cn be performed on serum or lithium heprin or EDTA plsm. SDMA is stble for 4 dys t room temperture nd 14 dys refrigerted. It is lso stble for yers in specimens tht remin frozen nd do not undergo freeze-thw cycles. Lipemi nd icterus do not ffect SDMA results. Severe hemolysis my slightly decrese SDMA (10-25% in dogs; 10-20% in cts). Rrely in specimens with severe hemolysis nd lipemi, SDMA cnnot be mesured.
