What Do These Creatinine Values Indicate?
Question: My creatinine clearance is 66ml/per minute and serum creatinine 1.5
Brief Answer:
Poor kidney function
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
You seem to have a lower than normal creatinine clearance along with elevation of blood creatinine. This may indicate:
- Kidney problems, such as damage to the tubule cells
- Kidney failure
- Too little blood flow to the kidneys
- Damage to the filtering units of the kidneys
You need to consult a nephrologist. Dialysis might be needed.
