Understanding Serum Creatinine in Howrah

What is Serum Creatinine in Howrah?

The Serum Creatinine test measures the level of creatinine in the blood and is available at an affordable price in Howrah with Tata 1mg labs. Creatinine is a natural waste product in the blood and urine and is removed via the kidneys. Your doctor may advise this test to evaluate your kidneys' health or to detect kidney diseases. It also serves as a valuable tool to monitor ongoing treatment response for known kidney disease.

Abnormally high levels of creatinine warn of a possible malfunction, damage, or failure of the kidneys. Creatinine levels can be naturally decreased by changing diet and lifestyle and reducing protein intake. If the creatinine levels are still high, your doctor will recommend a treatment plan.

What does Serum Creatinine measure?

The Serum Creatinine test measures the creatinine level, a byproduct produced by the wear and tear of muscles during energy production. Since kidneys help filter creatinine, this test helps determine how well your kidneys work. Usually, high levels of creatinine in the blood signal diminished kidney function. At the same time, low levels may indicate decreased muscle mass.
