to evaluate kidney function
Muscle enzyme measuring tissue damage in heart, skeletal muscle, or brain.
measures a heart-specific enzyme to diagnose heart damage
When a muscle is damaged, CPK leaks into the bloodstream.
Creatinine values are measured to correct results for urine dilution
represents the actual creatinine concentration in the specimen that was submitted.
Creatine breakdown
used as a laboratory standardization when evaluating urinary analyte

Urinary Creatinine
The evaluation of the creatinine concentration in the urine does only serve as an admeasurement of the individual efficiency of the kidney. High values point to an urine concentration, low values to a strong dilution. Only the consideration of these circumstances allowes to evaluate the requested analyte correctly
