Creatinine clearance

Creatinine clearance


The Creatinine Clearance test measures how effectively your kidneys remove creatinine, a waste product produced by normal muscle activity. By analysing creatinine levels in both blood and urine, along with urine volume, this test provides a detailed understanding of kidney filtration efficiency. It is often recommended for individuals with kidney concerns, diabetes, high blood pressure, or those monitoring ongoing kidney conditions.

What the Test Measures

This test measures how efficiently your kidneys filter creatinine from your blood and remove it through urine. It helps assess your kidney filtration rate and detect reduced kidney function. It also supports the diagnosis and monitoring of kidney disease and overall renal health.
