A member asked:
What are the sources of error for creatinine clearance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Creatinine clearance: The most common cause is improper urine collection which means all the urine is not collected in the container. The other reason could be not collecting blood specimen for serum creatinine once you finished the urine collection. Another reason could be not collecting urine in proper container and the last reason can be not writing the correct total volume of the urine.
