What Is The Normal Creatinine Clearance Level For Men?
Question: What would a normal creatinine clearance level be for a male weighing 150lbs?
Brief Answer:
0.8 to 1.3
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Creatinine clearance is used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) which is essentially how much blood is passing through the kidneys.
Decreased creatinine clearance indicates decreased glomerular filtration rate and decreased function of the kidneys.
The normal range of creatinine clearance is approximately 0.8- 1.3 mg/dl. Different labs can have slight variation on their normal ranges.
There is a medical equation that can also be used to give an idea of the creatinine clearance for a specific person but it requires the creatinine blood result.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
