Creatinine Test & GFR

Hans Hospital Agra

Serum Creatinine Test

Accurate kidney function assessment with GFR calculation.

The Serum Creatinine test measures creatinine levels in your blood, which is the most reliable indicator of kidney function. At Hans Hospital Agra, we use advanced testing methods to provide accurate results and calculate your Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) for comprehensive kidney health assessment.

Creatinine is a waste product produced by muscle metabolism and is normally filtered out by healthy kidneys. Elevated levels indicate potential kidney problems.

Creatinine Reference Ranges

Understanding your creatinine test results

Serum Creatinine Levels (mg/dL)
Normal Range (Men) 0.7 - 1.3 mg/dL
Normal Range (Women) 0.6 - 1.1 mg/dL
Borderline High 1.3 - 1.5 mg/dL
High (Stage 2-3 CKD) 1.5 - 3.0 mg/dL
Very High (Stage 4-5 CKD) Above 3.0 mg/dL
Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)

GFR measures how well your kidneys filter waste from your blood. Normal GFR is above 90 mL/min. GFR below 60 mL/min indicates kidney disease.

Normal GFR:
≥ 90 mL/min
Stage 3 CKD:
30-59 mL/min
What is Creatinine?

Creatinine is a waste product from muscle metabolism. Healthy kidneys filter it from blood and excrete it in urine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about creatinine testing

Creatinine is a more specific marker of kidney function than BUN. Creatinine levels are less affected by diet and dehydration, making it more reliable for assessing kidney damage.
GFR measures how well your kidneys are working. It helps determine the stage of kidney disease and guides treatment decisions. GFR is more accurate than creatinine alone for assessing kidney function.
Yes, intense exercise can temporarily increase creatinine levels due to muscle breakdown. However, levels usually return to normal within 24-48 hours. Chronic high levels indicate kidney problems.
For healthy individuals, annual testing is sufficient. Kidney patients may need testing every 3-6 months. Diabetics and hypertensives should have it checked regularly as recommended by their doctor.
