Serum Creatinine
The main marker of kidney function, used to calculate eGFR.
Creatinine comes from muscle activity and healthy kidneys remove it. The level depends on muscle mass, so it is slightly higher in men and athletes.
It is ordered before contrast scans, with medicines that affect the kidneys, and to follow blood pressure and diabetes.
Preparation before the test
- No fasting needed; it can be done any time.
- Drink water before the test so the vein is easy to find.
