Is creatinine 116 high?

Creatinine 116μmol/L is indicative of high creatinine if it exceeds the upper limit of the test. Creatinine, like urea, is an indicator of kidney function and is often encountered in clinical practice. The normal value of creatinine is between 30 and 110 μmol/L, and if it exceeds 110 μmol/L, it is called elevated. A creatinine level of 116 μmol/L is not high compared to 110 μmol/L, but it is indicative of possible damage to the kidney. If the creatinine is elevated, it indicates renal failure. If it is acute renal failure, most of them are tubular necrosis type, and generally speaking, the prognosis is better and the problem is not that serious. If it is chronic renal failure, the problem is more serious, because chronic renal failure is gradually developed from chronic kidney disease, such as chronic glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy and so on, and once diagnosed with chronic renal failure is incurable, renal failure gradually in the development, and finally sooner or later have to develop into uremic syndrome. Therefore, if you find that the creatinine is 116μmol/L, you must improve the urological ultrasound or CT examination to confirm the diagnosis of acute or chronic renal failure according to the morphological changes in the kidneys, and then decide on the next treatment plan to prevent the occurrence of uremia.
