Creatinine women | 0.5 - 1.1 |
In renal failure, creatinine will | increase |
BUN | 10 - 20 |
In renal failure, BUN will | Increase, so control protein intake |
Sodium | 136 - 145 |
In renal failure, sodium will | be normal or decreased |
Potassium | 3.5 - 5.0 |
In renal failure, potassium will | increase, so avoid salt substitutes |
pH | 7.35-7.45 |
In renal failure, pH will | decrease (in met. acidosis) |

CO2 | 35 - 45 |
In renal failure, CO2 will | decrease |
Hemoglobin Men | 14-18 |

Hematocrit Women | 37-47% |
In renal failure, hematocrit will | decrease to 20%, |
Phosphorus | 3.0 - 4.5 |
In renal failure, phosphorus will | increase, which can cause decreased calcium levels |
Calcium | 9 - 10.5 |
