What is creatinine clearance?
May 21, 2014
Creatinine clearance rate is the volume of blood plasma that is cleared of creatinine per unit time. So it measures how much creatinine the kidney can clear.
This is used to estimate the renal function. If the kidney cannot clear the creatinine well, this means that it does not function well.
