![Acute renal failure (ARF) is defined as an abrupt or rapid decline in renal filtration function. This condition is usually marked by a rise in serum creatinine concentration or azotemia (a rise in blood urea nitrogen [BUN] concentration). Creatinine is a breakdown product of creatine, which is an important constituent of muscle. A serum creatinine test measures the amount of creatinine in the blood. BUN (blood urea nitrogen) is a test that measures the amount of urea nitrogen (a breakdown product of protein metabolism) in the blood. The normal value of serum (blood) creatinine is 0.6- 1.5 mg/dL, and for BUN is 10-20 mg/dL.

The normal value of serum (blood) creatinine is 0.6- 1.5 mg/dL, and for BUN is 10-20 mg/dL.
