Your kidneys contain filtering units called glomeruli. When your blood moves
through your kidneys, the glomeruli are responsible for filtering out waste
products and excess fluids from the blood and leaving important nutrients in the
blood. The amount of blood that your kidneys filter every minute is referred to
as the glomerular filtration rate, or GFR. Renal failure is characterized by
damaged or destroyed glomeruli. If your kidneys fail, your GFR decreases. This
also lowers the amount of waste products, like creatinine, that are removed from
the blood.
Before the kidney several reasons
The elevation in serum creatinine is produced by a decrease in GFR, which is
produced in turn by decreased renal perfusion.
Hypotension
Volume depletion
Renal artery stenosis
Renal artery thrombosis
Renal vein thrombosis
Traumatic renal infarction
Multiple cholesterol emboli syndrome
Congestive heart failure
Hepatorenal syndrome
Cardiac surgery
Know the reason, we will have to think of a way to reduce serum creatinine,
so reduce the most important is to repair serum creatinine kidney basement
membrane.Traditional treatment for high serum creatinine focuses on purely lower
the level of creatinine in the blood. As basement membrane isn’t repaired, so
the level of serum creatinine is lowered temporarily and can rise again easily.
In order to really treat high serum creatinine, glomerular filtration has to be
improved. Traditional Chinese medicine can repair the damaged basement membrane,
which need a relatively long time.
