High serum creatinine levels

1 ANSWERS

   *  Adult males: 0.8 - 1.4 mg/dl: values are slightly higher in males due to larger muscle mass
       * Adult females: 0.6 - 1.1 mg/dl: creatinine clearance is increased in pregnancy, resulting in lower serum levels
       * Children: 0.2 - 1.0 mg/dl: slight increases with age because values are proportional to body mass
       * A panic value for creatinine is 10 mg/dl in nondialysis patients.
   
   Hope that helps,
