INTRODUCTION
We will begin this report by providing a brief definition of the topic to be addressed.
Creatinine is a waste molecule that is generated from metabolism.
muscular. It comes from creatine, which is very important for energy production.
muscular. Approximately 2% of the body's creatine is converted into
creatinine every day. Creatinine is transported from the muscles through the
blood towards the kidney. The kidneys filter most of the creatinine and eliminate it in
urine. Although it is a waste substance, creatinine is a test
essential diagnosis, as it has been observed that its concentration in blood indicates
with a good reliability the status of renal function. If the kidneys do not function
Well, they do not eliminate creatinine properly and therefore it accumulates in the blood.
this creatinine can indicate a possible dysfunction or renal insufficiency,
even before symptoms appear. That's why creatinine is often listed in
the blood tests that are commonly performed. The determination of creatinine
it is a useful indicator for evaluating renal glomerular function, taking into account the
Prerequisite that the production of creatinine and its excretion are equal. This is
it occurs in healthy individuals with a normal diet. We can say that the elimination of
creatinine over a 24-hour period is a constant value, dependent
mainly of the individual's muscle mass, and on the other hand the calculation of
creatinine clearance will be a direct parameter of renal function.
OBJECTIVES
1. Determine the concentration of creatinine in plasma and urine using a
spectrophotometric method
.
2. Determine the creatinine clearance with the values in plasma and urine.

First of all, we must take into account that the debugging of insulin is
that commonly accepted method to evaluate the filtration rate
glomerular (GFR), however, due to its difficulty, it is not carried out
frequently in clinical practice. Consequently, the need has arisen
to seek other markets that provide greater ease both as
precision for determining TGF.
Where those serum creatinine levels are not taken into account as
a unique average for estimating renal function, particularly for the detection of
early periods of chronic kidney failure as in cases of disease
advanced renal.
Therefore, certain exogenous markers have been proposed as options, such
such as radioactive contrast agents, such as in the case of
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), Iothalamate, and Technetium-99m-acid
diethylenetriaminepentaaceticTc99-DTPA).
On the other hand, different formulas have also been developed to assess the
renal clearance, with one of the most used being the Cockcroft proposal
Gault, and lately the one developed by Levey as part of the MDRD study.
(2).
Taking that into account, we can now determine if the creatinine clearance
is within the normal ranges using the following formula:
With the results already obtained, we can say that the creatinine clearance
is normal in Case 1 (95.79 ml/min) and altered in Case 2 (48.67)
ml/min).
2. Why despite having equal plasma creatinine values the

4. According to the tests performed, the patient in case 2 will require
of renal dialysis?
No, because their creatinine levels are within the normal ranges.
except for urine creatinine, but that value is not sufficient reason to
to perform dialysis on him, not without first conducting other clinical analyses.
5. If the urine volume were 900 ml in case 1, how would it alter the
creatinine clearance values?
If the urine volume were 900 ml, the patient would have a result of 47.8 ml/min.
that is to say, that their results would be very low, which would not be within
the normal.
