BUN/Creatinine Ratio

  • Digital Report

The BUN/Creatinine Ratio test measures the ratio of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) to creatinine in the blood. This test provides valuable information about kidney function and overall health.

  • Sample Type: Blood
  • Results: 1-4 days
  • Age: 18+

The BUN/Creatinine ratio is useful in the differential diagnosis of acute or chronic renal disease. Reduced renal perfusion, e.g., congestive heart failure, or recent onset of urinary tract obstruction will result in an increase in BUN/Creatinine ratio. Increased urea formation also results in an increase in the ratio, e.g., gastrointestinal bleeding, trauma, etc. When there is decreased formation of urea as seen in liver disease, there is a decrease in the BUN/Creatinine ratio. In most cases of chronic renal disease the ratio remains relatively normal.

No preparation required.
