Overview

Diminished Urine Output, often referred to as oliguria, is a condition characterized by the production of less than 400 milliliters of urine per day in adults. This condition can indicate various underlying health issues, ranging from dehydration to severe kidney dysfunction.

Symptoms

The primary symptom of diminished urine output is a noticeable decrease in the volume of urine produced. Additional symptoms may include:

  • Swelling in the ankles, feet, or abdomen
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Confusion or altered mental status
  • Dry mouth and skin

Causes

There are several potential causes of diminished urine output, including:

  • Dehydration due to excessive fluid loss (vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating)
  • Kidney disorders (acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease)
  • Blockages in the urinary tract (kidney stones, tumors)
  • Medications that affect kidney function (diuretics, NSAIDs)
  • Heart failure or other conditions that impair blood flow to the kidneys

Diagnosis

Diagnosing diminished urine output typically involves a comprehensive assessment, including:

  • Review of medical history and symptoms
  • Physical examination
  • Urinalysis to evaluate kidney function and rule out infections
  • Blood tests to measure creatinine and electrolytes
  • Imaging studies such as ultrasound or CT scan to detect blockages
