Salt detective: new quiz tracks hidden sodium in hospital patients
NCT ID NCT05533645
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new food questionnaire called EvalSel to see how well it measures salt intake in hospitalized patients with high blood pressure or kidney problems. Researchers will compare the questionnaire results with a 24-hour urine test, which is the gold standard for measuring sodium. If accurate, the tool could help doctors quickly spot dietary mistakes and refer patients to dietitians for better care.

What this could lead to
If successful, this questionnaire could help doctors quickly assess patients' salt intake and guide them to better dietary care.
What could go wrong
