Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of serum creatinine(SCr) to monitor the renal function of patients with spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods1298 SCI patients were investigated in Beijing Charity Hospital from January 2004 to May 2009. 249 healthy people were involved as control. The data of SCr were analysed.ResultsThe level of SCr for the SCI patients was (56.81±14.33) μmol/L with normal distribution, 95% CI was 28.73~84.89 μmol/L; The level of SCr for the healthy people was (75.98±11.34) μmol/L, 95% CI was 57.36~101.80 μmol/L. The level of SCr was significantly lower in the SCI patients comparing to the healthy people (P<0.01). Among the SCI patients, the level of SCr was (59.59±13.76) μmol/L for male while (46.41±11.31) μmol/L for female(P<0.05). There was no difference in level of SCr among different ages of the SCI patients(P>0.05). The characteristics were likely in the two groups. There was no difference in level of SCr between paraplegic (55.54±14.96) μmol/L and quadriplegic (57.67±13.83) μmol/L (P>0.05).ConclusionThe characteristics of level of SCr were likely in SCI patients and healthy people with normal distribution. The level of SCr was lower in SCI patients comparing to healthy people, which was higher for male SCI patients comparing to female SCI patients.
