Male gender, diabetes, COPD, anemia, and creatinine clearance less than 30 mL/min predicted hospitalization after heart failure diagnosis.HeartfailureThe article presents information on the research study conducted to find the frequency and hospitalization after diagnosis of heart failure. 1077 patients ...
Hemodialysis, which removes about half of dabigatran in 4 hours, is a suitable option in acute kidney injury or in patients with a creatinine clearance under 30 mL/min. Use of non vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants Because the hormone FGF23 increases phosphate excretion per nephron, it is...
Higher than normal levels of creatinine in your blood may indicate problems with your urinary tract or kidneys. Lower levels may indicate conditions that lead to lowered muscle mass. A GFR score under 60 may mean kidney disease. A creatinine clearance test measures GFR by examining creatinine leve...
Creatinine clearance (CrCl) is an estimate of glomerular filtration rate (GFR); however, CrCl is slightly higher than true GFR because creatinine is secreted by the proximal tubule (in addition to being filtered by the glomerulus). The additional proximal tubule secretion falsely elevates the CrCl...
In spite of this, creatinine clearance correlates well with inulin clearance when the GFR is normal. This agreement results from the balance of two factors: (1) the excretion rate of creatinine is higher than the filtered rate because of the occurrence of tubular secretion of creatinine, and (...

It should be underlined that serum creatinine was on average below 1.5 mg/dl, while the value of the calculated creatinine clearance was almost 30 ml/min, using the Cockcroft-Gault formula. The levels of creatinine clearance found in centenarians, although quite low, were not correlated with an...
Modified and total creatinine clearances were not significantly different in patients with a total creatinine clearance less than 60 L/week/1.73 m2 body surface area (BSA), but a significantly lower modified total creatinine clearance was seen with patients having greater than 60 L/week/1.73 m2 ...
with creatmme clearance less than 80 ml/min are omitted from the data of Table II. Increased urinary volume in the patients is attributed to the practice of encouraging a high fluid intake. Reduced sodium, potassium, magnesium, chloride and phosphate in the patients was probably related to ...
Therefore, with prerenal azotemia, the ratio of the clearance of sodium to the clearance of creatinine, which is also called the fractional excretion of sodium (FENa) (FENa = [Urinary sodium]/[Urinary creatinine] × [Plasma creatinine]/[Plasma sodium] × 100), is typically less than 1.0, ...
