Diagnosis of renal-associated encephalopathy is based on signs of cerebral (mainly forebrain) dysfunction in an animal with renal failure or soon after haemodialysis or renal transplantation and no other cause of brain disease. Serum biochemistry shows very severe azotaemia, hyperkalaemia, and hyperphosphataemia with or without hypocalcaemia. Urinalysis performed before fluid therapy shows isosthenuria.
