Tested parameters
Urea
Urea is a waste product resulting from the breakdown of proteins. Urea is then excreted from the body in urine. A high level of urea may indicate that the kidneys are not functioning properly or may be a sign of dehydration. It is important to note that even if one of your kidneys is failing, the results obtained may still be within normal values, since only one kidney is fully functional for proper functioning.
Creatinine
Creatinine is a waste product that is generated by muscle breakdown. Creatinine passes into the bloodstream and is excreted through urine. Creatinine levels may be higher in athletes than in people who do little exercise, and is a marker of kidney function and can therefore help in the diagnosis of kidney disease.
GFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate)
GFR assesses how well the kidneys are working as it allows us to estimate the amount of blood filtered through the kidneys.
Reference values
Urea < 50 mg/dL
Creatinine < 1.11 mg/dL
GFR >0.60 mL/min/1.73 m2
