Creatinine 180μmol/L suggests that blood creatinine is elevated, which can be divided into physiological and pathological conditions. Physiological cases include strenuous exercise, consuming a lot of meat, etc., which can be normalized after removing related factors; pathological cases include acute kidney injury and chronic glomerulonephritis, etc. Acute kidney injury can be reversed in some patients, while chronic glomerulonephritis is difficult to be reversed.
1. Physiological: blood creatinine may rise after strenuous exercise or eating a large amount of meat, and will usually return to normal after rest and diet control.
2. Pathologic: including acute kidney injury and chronic glomerulonephritis. Acute kidney injury includes pre-renal, renal and post-renal. Pre-renal, such as insufficient effective circulating blood volume, and post-renal, such as stones, can be reversed after rehydration, stone removal and other treatments. Chronic glomerulonephritis is characterized by proteinuria, hematuria, edema, and hypertension, and it is difficult to reverse the elevated blood creatinine.
If you find elevated blood creatinine, you should go to the hospital in time to consult the doctor, clarify the cause and standardize the treatment under the guidance of professional doctors.
