This BUN Creatinine ratio calculator counts the ratio of blood urea nitrogen to creatinine to differentiate between causes of acute renal failure.
A high BUN creatinine ratio may result from high BUN and normal creatinine, a normal BUN and low creatinine, or both BUN and creatinine elevated, with BUN disproportionately higher. The individual values of BUN and creatinine, as well as the ratio are important for a correct diagnosis.
BUN to creatinine ratio. The ideal ratio of BUN to creatinine falls between 10-to-1 and 20-to-1.
In medicine, the urea-to-creatinine ratio (UCR[1]), known in the United States as BUN-to-creatinine ratio, is the ratio of the blood levels of urea (BUN) (mmol/L) and creatinine (Cr) (μmol/L).
BUN creatinine ratio calculator counts the ratio of a patient's blood urea nitrogen to their creatinine levels. Read on to find out how to calculate the BUN creatinine ratio, why we measure it, and what it means if the BUN creatinine ratio is high or low.
A high BUN/Creatinine ratio indicates an underlying disease/disorder and will usually be accompanied by the symptoms of this underlying disorder. The causes shown here are commonly associated with high BUN/creatinine. Work with your doctor or other health care professional for an accurate diagnosis. A BUN/Creatinine ratio above the normal range ...
