Creatinine and Creatinine Clearance | 合法醫療器材資訊網

Test Overview

Creatinine and creatinine clearance tests measure the level of the waste product creatinine[1] (say "kree-AT-uh-neen") in your blood and urine. These tests tell how well your kidneys are working.

Another substance, creatine (say "KREE-uh-teen"), is formed when food is changed into energy through a process called metabolism[2]. Creatine is broken down into creatinine. Your kidneys[3] take creatinine out of your blood and pass it out of your body in urine.

If your kidneys are damaged and cant work as they should, the amount of creatinine in your urine goes down while its level in your blood goes up.

Three types of tests can be done.
