My Serum Creatinine level came 1.10 mg/dl (lab reference range 0.6 - 1.30) from one lab & 1.18 mg/dl (lab reference range upto 1.4) from another lab
There is a variation of 0.08 mg/dl between the test results done from two different labs on the same day
Need to know whether Serum Creatinine test results depends on the respective lab's references ranges & could vary from lab to lab due to difference in the reference ranges

Hello
Thank you for sharing your concern regarding the variation in your serum creatinine levels. Here’s what you need to know:
1. Lab Variations: Serum creatinine levels can show slight variations between labs due to differences in testing methods, equipment, and reference ranges. The difference of 0.08 mg/dl in your results is minor and falls within the acceptable margin of error. Both values are well within the normal range for your age and gender.
2. Reference Ranges: Labs may use slightly different reference ranges based on their calibration standards, but this does not necessarily indicate a problem. Your results are consistent and do not suggest kidney dysfunction.
3. When to Worry: Significant fluctuations (e.g., >0.3 mg/dl) or values outside the normal range would warrant further investigation. Your current results do not raise any red flags.
For personalized advice and to address any underlying concerns, I recommend scheduling a consultation with me. This will allow us to review your medical history, lifestyle factors, and any other relevant tests if needed.
