How to read your pet's blood work

1/5/2015

So you went to the vet for 'blood work" so what does all those numbers mean??

Kidney function
BUN is a common test of kidney function. Unfortunately, it’s also affected by other factors

Creatinine is a much more sensitive test of kidney dysfunction. Even small elevations of this enzyme can indicate significant kidney problems

Urinalysis
Many different pieces of information can be derived from a urinalysis. One of the most important deals with kidney function – it’s called the urine specific gravity.  If kidney function deteriorates, they are less able to produce dilute or concentrated urine, resulting in an abnormal specific gravity.

Liver function
The best test for diagnosing liver disease is the ALT (alanine transaminase) test (formerly called SGPT).

NOTE: normal may not be normal for your pet.  While vets are trained and most are very contentious, never hesitate to ask questions
