The normal range for the BUN:creatinine ratio (BCR) has not been determined for infants and children. The objectives of this study were to: (1) test the hypothesis that the BCR is higher in young children; and (2) establish normal BCR ranges for children of various ages. In this ...
Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level is another indicator of kidney function. Urea is a metabolic byproduct that can also build up if kidney function is impaired. The BUN-to-creatinine ratio generally provides more precise information about kidney function and its possible underlying cause compared with...

Creatinine levels are checked to assess kidney function.They are usually checked with another kidney function marker called BUN, or blood urea nitrogen. These tests used together give an indication of overall kidney function, but the best way to know if your kidneys are working properly is to me...
Acreatininetest is another blood test that checks your kidney health. You'd get it because the BUN level by itself doesn’t always reveal much. When your BUN levels are compared to your creatinine levels, it gives a fuller picture of what’s happening with your kidneys. This is known as...
BUN Correct Answer A. Renal Clearance/Creatinine Clearance ExplanationRenal clearance/creatinine clearance is considered the #1 renal function test because it provides an accurate measure of the kidney's ability to remove waste and toxins from the blood. This test involves measuring the amount of ...
BUN 128 mg/dL, creatinine 28.3 mg/dL, and glucose 240 mg/dL. ECG showed that peaked T-waves and widening of the QRS complex. The patient was treated intravenously with calcium gluconate, sodium bicarbonate, and insulin (glucose 50% solution) and ECG became normal. The most likely reason ...
Urea nitrogen (BUN) Yes Yes Yes No No No No * Includes calculations of risk ratios and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). AHP = acute hepatitis panel; BMP = basic metabolic panel; CMP = comprehensive metabolic panel; ELEC = electrolyte panel; HDL = high-density lipoprotein; HFPA = hepatic...
