How Can We Prevent Increase of Serum Creatinine Level

Increase of serum creatinine level is a very bad sign as it means large amounts of toxins are accumulating in blood. Dialysis is usually required when serum creatinine level goes up to a certain level, so preventing increase of serum creatinine level means preventing dialysis. Well, how can we prevent increase of serum creatinine level?

To understand well about what to do to prevent further elevation of serum creatinine level, it is necessary to firstly learn the real cause of creatinine level.

Creatinine is one of the metabolic wastes of our body, which can pass through kidney freely. While they flow through kidney with blood, they removed out of the body with urine. However, when kidneys fail to function properly, only less blood can be filtered in united time. Under such a condition, creatinine in blood can not be removed timely, leading to increase of serum creatinine level.

How can we prevent increase of serum creatinine level?

For kidney disease patients, to prevent increase of serum creatinine level, we need to:

-Increase renal filtration function

Damaged kidneys can not filter blood as well as they did before. However, if we can repair injured kidney tissues on the precondition of protecting residual kidney tissues, kidneys can filter blood better. This helps to remove excess creatinine in blood and reduce serum creatinine level.

-Increase bloodstream in kidney

Kidneys filter blood and during this process, creatinine in blood is removed, so by promoting renal blood circulation and increasing bloodstream in kidney, creatinine in blood can be reduced and as a result, serum creatinine level is lowered down naturally.

In kidney disease, serum creatinine level increases as kidneys can not filter blood as well as they did before, so by increasing renal filtration function and increasing bloodstream in kidney, not only further increase of serum creatinine level can be prevented, high creatinine level also can be reduced to the normal range.
