Is blood uric acid 370 μmol/L considered high?

The normal range of adult blood uric acid level is 89~357μmol/L for females and 150~416μmol/L for males. 370μmol/L blood uric acid is higher than the normal level for female patients, while 370μmol/L blood uric acid is still at the normal level for male patients.
Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purines, and persistently elevated levels of blood uric acid concentration may cause gout in patients. The normal range of blood uric acid for men is 150-416 μmol/L, and the reference range of blood uric acid for women is 89-357 μmol/L. If this patient is a woman, blood uric acid 370 μmol/L is already above the upper limit of the normal reference range.
Patients whose blood uric acid is higher than the upper limit of the normal reference range can try to avoid foods with high purine content, such as shrimp, crab, shellfish, animal offal, etc., avoid smoking, drinking, do not stay up all night, do not exercise strenuously, and drink plenty of water on a daily basis.
It is recommended that patients with blood uric acid 370μmol/L go to the endocrinology department and rheumatology and immunology department of regular hospitals for detailed consultation.
