Creatinine Test Overview
Creatinine is a chemical byproduct formed naturally in your muscles during energy production. Healthy kidneys act as filters, constantly removing creatinine and other waste products from your blood. A creatinine test measures the amount of creatinine present in your bloodstream. This test serves as a key indicator of kidney function. Since healthy kidneys effectively remove creatinine, abnormally high levels in your blood can signal reduced kidney function or potential kidney damage. It is often used alongside other kidney function tests to diagnose and monitor kidney health.
Frequently Asked Questions
Creatinine is performed in combination with other tests like BUN (Blood Urea Nitrogen) and is used largely as a screening test. Your doctor can recommend this test in case of Kidney disorders and other kidney dysfunction.
Your doctor would recommend creatinine test if you show signs of kidney disease that include:
- Insomnia
- Appetite loss
- Face, ankle and wrist swelling
- Lower back pain
- Lesser urine frequency
- Nausea
Creatine is found in the muscles and is produced as a waste product of muscle activity. Kidneys eliminate creatinine from the blood and hence any abnormality recorded in the test result is indicative of a Kidney disorder.
