Terms You Should Know
Creatinine: Blood urea nitrogen (BUN):
• Breakdown product of creatine • Urea nitrogen formed from protein
phosphate in muscle catabolism by the liver
• Filtered by the kidney and used to • Filtered by the kidney and used as an
estimate kidney function/filtration additional measure of kidney function
• Inversely proportional to function: • High BUN generally reflects lower
the higher the creatinine, the lower the filtration
filtration
• Caveat: BUN can increase independent
of kidney function
< 500 mL urine output/24 h • Steroids, tetracycline antibiotics, or
Oliguria:
<0.5 ml/kg/h reabsorption of blood in GI tract

other than clopidogrel which he started 5 weeks ago following
coronary angiography with stent placement to his left

Labs: Serum creatinine is 3.9 mg/dL (normal 0.5 1.0 mg/dL).
CBC has an increased number of eosinophils on the differential.
