1. Use of serum creatinine concentration to assess -edited–
• Serum creatinine alone should not be used as a measure of kidney function as it is particularly insensitive for identifying chronic kidney disease (CKD) in its early-to-middle stages and in certain patient groups (e.g. small body size, females, elderly) when populationbased decision points are used. (Level III evidence, multiple large cohort studies in community and institutional settings, cl...
متن کاملEstimation of glomerular filtration rate from the serum creatinine concentration.
In patients with renal failure the dose of renally excreted drugs should be reduced in proportion with the degree of impairment of glomerular filtration: in this situation it is appropriate to measure the glomerular filtration rate in order to determine accurately the correct dose. However, as 24 hour urine based creatinine clearance measurements are time consuming and inaccurate, the parameter...
متن کاملElevations in serum creatinine concentration: concerning or reassuring?
The use of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) has significantly reduced morbidity and mortality across the continuum of vascular disease. The utilization of these agents, however, remains suboptimal. The drugs are not prescribed in many patients because of concerns regarding their effects on renal function. Despite overwhelming evidence in fa...
متن کاملFalsely high serum creatinine concentration associated with severe methanol intoxication.
A case of severe methanol intoxication (1300 mg/L) was associated with markedly increased serum creatinine (490 mg/L) despite normal urea values and the absence of any other signs of renal disease. These values declined progressively to normal, and the patient recovered with no visual impairment. Additional laboratory experimentation suggested that the high creatinine value was probably ascriba...
متن کاملPronounced increase in serum creatinine concentration after eating cooked meat.
and conclusions A localised outbreak of trichinosis occurred in January 1976 in the southern suburbs of Paris. A total of 125 cases was recorded including 30 children. The prominent symptoms were oedema of the face or eyelids, fever, and myalgia; diarrhoea was unusual and constipation common. An increased blood eosinophil count and raised serum concentrations of muscular enzymes strongly indica...
