What is CREATININE, SERUM?

This test measures the level of creatinine in your blood, a waste product produced from normal muscle metabolism. Creatinine is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys and excreted in urine.

Why is this test important?

Creatinine levels are a key indicator of kidney function. High levels can suggest that your kidneys are not filtering waste effectively, which may point to kidney disease or impaired kidney function.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
