Actual (reported)In clinical practice the 24-hour creatinine clearance is often used to obtain an impression of renal function. However, the glomerular filtration rate is considered to be the best indicator of renal function. For practical and financial purposes, GFR is often estimated by means of serum creatinine based equations. These equations are also used in internation guidelines to define and classify chronic kidney disease. Therefore, accurate creatinine measurements are important to make reliable estimates of renal function. However, previous research has revealed a large variability in creatinine measurements using different measuring methods. In this study the investigators aim to establish the degree of variability in different methods to measure creatinine in a heterogenous group of Caucasian people with and without renal function loss and the influence of this variability on renal function estimating equations and the 24-hour creatinine clearance.

Actual (reported)To investigate the bias and precision between routine laboratory techniques to measure creatinine in plasma, urine and dialysate when compared to the gold standard to measure creatinine.
Creatinine concentrations of plasma, urine and/or dialysate samples will be measured using different techniques applied in daily clinical practice (jaffe, enzymatic and HPLC). For each participant creatinine will also be measured using the gold standard measure LC-MS. LCMS values will be used as reference method against which routine methods will be compared by means of absolute bias and precision per method group. Absolute bias is the mean difference between SCr values measured by individual laboratories and SCr target values; precision is defined as the SD of the absolute bias.
6 months (plasma, urine and dialysate samples are collected only once during the running of the study)
For this single group study, all patients presenting at the laboratory facility for a 24-hour creatinine clearance and patients in the dialysis population of the Isala Clinics who came for their periodical KT/V control, were informed about the study and asked to participate. Moreover, 20 'healthy' volunteers (including the investigators of this study and staff working at the clinical chemistry department of the Isala clinics) participated in this study.

All patients presenting at the laboratory facility for a 24-hour creatinine clearance and patients in the dialysis population of the Isala Clinics who came for their periodical KT/V control, were informed about the study and asked to participate. From the 24-hour urine (and for peritoneal dialysis population also from the 24-hour peritoneal dialysate fluid) 4 samples of 4 ml were collected. Moreover, extra blood samples (16 ml in total) were drawn on top of the samples that were necessary for the (routine) 24-hour creatinine clearance.
