Blood urea nitrogen and in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with cardiogenic shock: analysis of the MIMIC-III database. BioMed Res Int. (2021) 2021:5948636. doi: 10.1155/2021/5948636 ...

Background/context Unnecessary laboratory testing leads to considerable healthcare costs. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), commonly ordered with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and blood urea nitrogen ...

Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) is an indicator of dehydration in patients at risk of developing acute stroke-in-evolution, and BUN level detection in such patients can help prevent such a diagnosis. This ...

In azotemia, the BUN test result will be greater than 21 milligrams per deciliter. High blood urea nitrogen can also be due to several other reasons, including: ...

Background: Although blood urea nitrogen and albumin alone are well-known clinical indicators, combining them as the blood urea nitrogen-to-albumin ratio (BAR) may provide additional prognostic ...

Blood Urea Nitrogen Test Normal Lab Value: 7-20 milligrams per decaliter (mg/dl) The BUN, or blood urea nitrogen test, is another way to determine if the kidneys are successfully filtering the blood.

A low blood urea nitrogen is not a rare finding, values of 5 mg. per 100 ml. or less being found in approximately 1 per cent of this series of 16,000 determinations.

A blood urea nitrogen (BUN) test measures the amount of urea nitrogen in the blood. The result can indicate how well a person’s kidneys are working. A higher than normal level of BUN may point ...

Urea is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys. If all is going well, there is a continuous amount of urea being produced and being excreted by the kidneys into the urine. The BUN level in the blood ...

Hicks remained unconcerned about his kidney function, citing his blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels as being within normal limits, which further alleviated his worries.

Maximum blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels, and sodium abnormalities predict adverse outcomes in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) or hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) among children.
