What can a low creatinine level in the body cause?
Creatinine is a substance that is produced during the body's natural activity (metabolism), and the body gets rid of this substance with the kidneys. A low creatinine level in the body means that one is healthy and their kidneys are very healthy and efficient.
What is the creatinine clearance test?
Creatinine clearance test. This test evaluates how efficiently the kidneys clear a substance called creatinine from the blood.
Is 0.9 a normal creatinine level?
0.9 a normal creatinine level
Is 73 a normal creatinine level?
is 73 normal creatinine level
Can creatinine levels go and and down?
can creatinine level go up and down
What do low clearance values for creatinine indicate?
Low clearance values for creatinine and urea indicate a diminished ability of the kidneys to filter these waste products from the blood and to excrete them in the urine.

What should the creatinine level be for dialysis?
Creatinine clearance is a measure of kidney function. Patients are on dialysis because their kidneys do not function properly thus their creatinine clearance would be very, very low. Some patients may have some residual kidney function but their creatinine clearance would be less than probably 10 ml/min.
Result being Statistically Significant or not statistically significant?
"Statistically significant" means that the result is beyond the element of chance.
Can over hydration cause creatinine levels to be low for a drug test?
Yes, absolutely. That's why they check creatinine levels. The drug tests rely on certain cutoff concentration levels to provide a positive result and therefore overhydrating is an easy way to test negative. Though you may test negative AND dilute, in which case they may make you test again (or not, or fire you, or not).
What cause low kidney enzymes?
If you have a low bun level, you may be on a very low protein diet or are overhydrated. If your creatinine is low, you may have very little muscle mass or be over-hydrated.
What is a statistically significant result?
A result is statistically significant if:it is unlikely to have occurred by chance
What is creatinine clearance?
In general, creatinine clearance is the removal of creatinine from the body. In renal physiology, creatinine clearance is the volume of blood plasma that is cleared of creatinine per unit time. Clinically, creatinine clearance is a useful measure for estimating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of the kidneys.1Creatinine is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate in muscle, and is usually produced at a fairly constant rate by the body (depending on muscle mass).2The result of this test is an important gauge used in assessing excretory function of the kidneys.11. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creatinine_clearance2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creatinine
What causes low kidney enzyme count?
If you have a low bun level, you may be on a very low protein diet or are overhydrated. If your creatinine is low, you may have very little muscle mass or be over-hydrated.
What health conditions cause abnormal urine creatinine?
Higher than normal creatinine levels mean kidney disease. Too low means muscle wasting due to a disease like muscular dystrophy.
What is the differential diagnosis of elevated creatinine phosphokinase?
increased cpk may result to myocardial infarction, Dystrophies, myocardits and the likes
How do you say creatinine in the Hindi language?
