Creatinine - Serum Overview

What is a Creatinine Serum Blood Test?

This test is widely used to assess the kidney function by checking the Creatinine level in the blood. Creatinine is described as a waste product that is continuously produced in the body from breakdown of muscle tissue. Later the Kidneys filter the Creatinine from the blood and flush it from the body through urine.

    precautions before creatinine serum blood test

What are precautions that need to be taken before the Creatinine Serum Blood Test?

Unlike many other blood tests that require strict fasting or certain other stringent conditions for a perfect evaluation, this test is a bit different.

It does not involve any fasting restrictions however it requires certain dietary restrictions such as avoiding certain foods that can become a reason for increased Creatinine in the blood, foods such as cooked meat and high-protein diets must be avoided.

Apart from this, there are certain other basic precautions, mentioned below -

  • Inform the doctor/physician about any medications that you have been taking recently.
  • Dehydration as well as overhydration can become a concern to the accuracy of the test, hence drinking a nominal amount of water or as asked by your doctor must be followed.
  • Any sort of exercise that can cause strain to the body as it can result in temporary fluctuation in the Creatinine level, affecting the accuracy of the test.
  • If you have had any other test done recently ie., within 24 to 48 hours then do inform your doctor/physician about the same.
  • In case the test is a part of routine monitoring then diligently follow the timing of the test as told by your doctor.
  • In short, Creatinine levels can regularly fluctuate in the blood due to certain foods, medications, or activities. To receive an accurate result of your Creatinine Serum Blood Test all you need to do is to follow these basic precautions and listen to your doctor.

What to expect during a Creatinine - Serum Blood Test?

During a Creatinine - Serum blood test, a healthcare professional takes a blood sample from your arm, which is also known as venipuncture. A lab expert known as a phlebotomist conducts this process using a needle. He locates a vein on your arm and inserts the needle to draw blood. The blood sample will be transferred into a test tube and will be taken safely to the labs for the test.

The lab technicians will test the sample by following established standards, to ensure correct reports. Thyrocare Labs has a team of professionals who are skilled and experienced. After the testing is done, your reports are sent to your email within 1-2 days. On the other hand, if you need a hard copy of the report, expect the delivery of the same within 3-5 business days.
