BUN and creat. values can fluctuate a bit normally. yours are within normal limits. there are no implications. just follow the docs advice on follow up tests. Good luck

This indicates prerenal azotemia. The most common causes are dehydration, or obstruction, in the urinary system that prevents the drainage of urine.
