A member asked:
My lab test results says. bun/ creatinine ratio results 28, units h , reference interval lab 8-20. can someone please tell me what this means.

What are the results: Of BUN and creatinine? Ratios often distort the meaning of raw values. 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 one needs to know the actual values to provide an opinion.
