A member asked:
What is the most common cause of the creatinine and bun to be in the normal range and the gfr to be a low 51?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inconsistent: By definition, creatinine is not normal if the GFR is 51. GFR is calculated from serum creatinine value and if the GFR is below 90, that equates to higher creatinine than would be normal for that person.
