résultat contrôlé

French to English Medical Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) biologie sanguine du patient
Biochimie générale: Créatinine: 1.74mg/dL (v.n. 0.8 - 1.5). Créatinine: résultat contrôlé.

Among all the different results(urea, total bilirubin etc) only creatinine has the result values then "résultat contrôlé". I therefore doubt it simply means " results monitored". Any ideas?
Thanks for your help

urea Regarding Michael's note, I checked urea and it was normal (Ur�e: 40mg/dl (n.v. 15 � 50). Thanks for being so thorough Michael!
Julia Maitland (asker) Oct 18, 2005:
Maybe, David, but the problem is that the creatine is among a long list of other results, most of which are also outside the normal range. But only creatine is followed by "resultat contr�l�"

agree Helen Genevier : it's possible they only bothered repeating the abnormal CrCl - eg often used to calculate a dose

Serum creatinine is usually reported along with serum BUN (azote). They usually rise or fall in concert since they are both measuring renal function. The elevation of creatinine reported is relatively minor and would not normally provoke a recheck. It may be that the BUN was normal, causing the lab to question the abnormal creatinine.

"Result checked" is also perfectly correct. I add this simply for clarification.

Alternatively, there may have been a grossly elevated BUN with only a modest elevation of creatinine. This can occur with high protein diets. The lab would want to check that the creatinine was not indeed higher.

"Urea" is synonymous with BUN (blood urea nitrogen).
