Renal Function Test something wrong with GF Test

- Testing substances, cleared away

- “CCT” Creatinine Clearance Test – nagkakaroon ng poor on GFR. It
muscle metabolism means eto yung mga clinical
2. Tubular Reabsorption Test significance.
- Ability to concentrate the blood
- Adjust, check the amount • Not give reliable estimates of GFR
- Concentration test (Approximately 40% of filtered urea is
3. Tubular Secretion and Renal Blood reabsorbed)
Flow Test • It is about 50% of creatinine
clearance.
Glomerular Filtration Rate

First function that we have to measure is all


about GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE.

Clearance Test
• The standard tests used to measure
the filtering capacity of the glomeruli
• Measures the rate at which the
kidneys are able to remove (to clear)
a filterable substance from the blood
✓ Kasi eto yung primary function of
kidney

• The substance analyzed must be one


that is neither reabsorbed nor
secreted by the tubules
✓ Example is creatine, BUN and so on

• Stability of substance in urine during


24- hour urine collection
• Consistency of plasma level
✓ Kaya titingnan natin ang mga
advantages, disadvantages or some
of interfering substances

• Substances availability to the body


• Availability of tests for analysis of the
substance
• Reported in mL/min

GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE:


CLEARANCE TEST

UREA CLEARANCE TEST CREATININE CLEARANCE


• Urea – 1st subs
The earliest or oldest GF Test that time is UREA • Inulin
CLEARANCE TEST
• Normal part of the body
✓ Kung sobrang mataas sya there’s
• Stable amount
• Everyday stable
• Ideal subs for clearance test
• Only filtered, clear away ng
glomerulus
• Reabsorbed or secretion is not
significant

• Affected by the diet, height/weight,


surface area

• Most commonly used; screening


method of GFR
• Excellent measurement of renal
function
✓ Creatinine is freely filtered by the
glomerulus but not reabsorbed.

• A measure of the completeness of a


24-hour urine collection

✓ Part of preparation for the test of this


creatine clearance is collection of 24-
hour urine
✓ measure of the completeness of a 24-
hour urine collection is considered as
reliable to achieve the accuracy of the
result
✓ ibig sabihin nagkakaroon ng problem
when we are not following the
guidelines on 24 hour urine collection
pwedeng kulang kasi sobrang
importante ng exact volume in 24hour
collection
