Q: what's the normal level of serum creatinine?

Any < 1.5 mg/dL. : The standard reference ranges for serum creatinine are 0.5 to 1.0 mg/dl (about 45-90 μmol/l) for women and 0.7 to 1.2 mg/dl (60-110 μmol/l) for men. These can vary. For example, a bodybuilder can have a creatinine level of 2.0 and be healthy, while an elderly female can have a value of 1.2 and have severe renal disease.

Q: how is the serum creatinine in blood brought to normal?

Depends.: It would depend on what was the cause of its elevation.

Q: how can a patient with 1335 umol/l range of serum creatinine be helped?

High creatinine: It may not be able to be reduced. See a nephrologist (n) and have a 24 hour urine collection, with protein, to assess your kidney function. You will also need some blood work and a renal ultrasound. Once the n has the results of all of your tests, you can get diagnosis of your problem along with a prognosis of how it will affect you. Good luck.

Q: serum creatinine 0.49mg/dl, 24h urine cr 22.1mg/dl & cr excretion 884mg, cr clearance 125.4ml/min, random urine cr 109,7mg/dl. normal? if low, why?

Normal: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, your results are normal. Serum creatinine levels depends, in part, on muscle mass and women have lower levels than men.

Q: high value of creatinine clearance.serum creatinine 0, 8mg/dl.creat. clearance 165ml/min.normal value from 80 to130.what's the relevance of high value?

Don't worry: A high estimated GFR means nothing whateve except that the estimate has little to do with reality. The fad for estimating glomerular filtration rates in healthy people based on a correlation with serum creatinine is unscientific and has many pathologists and nephrologists unhappy. Ignore it.

Q: what results in an elevated bun level with a normal serum creatinine?

See below: An elevated BUN with normal creatinine occurs most commonly in dehydrated individuals and is not a sign of kidney damage.It may also occur in in certain other conditions like bleeding in the intestines, artificial nutrition intravenously of Amino Acids and use of steroids.
