Normal serum creatinine ranges from 53 to 106 μmol/L in men and 44 to 97 μmol/L in women. 160 μmol/L suggests that blood creatinine is elevated, which can be divided into physiologic and pathologic conditions. Physiological includes strenuous exercise, consuming large amount of meat, etc. Pathological includes acute kidney injury, chronic glomerulonephritis, etc.
1. Physiological: blood creatinine may increase after strenuous exercise or consuming a large amount of meat, and will usually return to normal after rest and diet control.
2. Pathologic: seen in acute kidney injury, chronic glomerulonephritis and so on. Acute kidney injury is divided into three kinds: pre-renal, renal and post-renal, which need to be clarified as soon as possible and treated in time. Chronic glomerulonephritis is mainly manifested by proteinuria, hematuria, edema and hypertension, mostly accompanied by renal insufficiency, and the treatment includes antihypertensive and urinary protein lowering and immunosuppressant therapy.
If you find that your blood creatinine is 160μmol/L, you should go to the hospital in time, clarify the cause under the guidance of professional physicians, and standardize the treatment in time.
