Creatinine increase in elderly means increased renal disease, mortality
Date:4/15/2008

ture studies we will want to determine if this relationship exists in patients admitted to the hospital for other conditions.

With these findings, the study calls for clinicians to closely monitor and aggressively treat patients experiencing increases in creatinine levels.

The study also shows that giving patients beta blockers and aspirin can help treat these patients and possibly prevent death in the long term, regardless of creatinine change during hospitalization, Newsome said.
