Spanish term

función renal muy alta

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Medicina Funcional
Aunque rara vez se hace chequeos completos,
el último mostraba que su hemoglobina A1C, que se relaciona con el nivel de
azúcar en la sangre, estaba en 8.2, cuando lo ideal es 6.5. Su función renal estaba
muy alta y, de vez en cuando, tomaba otros medicamentos, a veces para la
presión sanguínea, a veces para el colesterol, etc. Cuando se operó de la próstata,
se examinó el corazón y se hizo una prueba de estrés, y todo aparecía normal.

A qué se refiere con función renal muy alta?

extremely high renal function

Even though the writer of this particular report has employed the term renal function, I believe, given the context and the partial clinical scenario (High A1C), that he is trying to describe not a renal function per se but the state of polyuria that together with polydipsia and polyphagia characterizes a clinical scenario of diabetes.

very high kidney function

"The amount of blood the kidneys can make creatinine-free each minute is called the creatinine clearance. Creatinine clearance in a healthy young person is about 95 milliliters per minute for women/120 milliliters per minute for men. This means that each minute, that person's kidneys clear 95-120 mL of blood free of creatinine. The GFR can vary depending on age, sex, and size. Generally, the creatinine clearance is a good estimation of the glomerular filtration rate."

So, for instance, 150 mL would indicate high kidney function.

Peer comments on this reference comment:

disagree Joseph Tein : It seems to me that high creatinine equals low (poor, inadequate) kidney function. I don't see how this applies to 'funcion renal muy alta'

agree Anne Schulz : I did wonder about that, as the text may well be a quote from the patient's own report, and 'elevated renal function parameters' = elevated creatinine might have been the intended meaning (would fit with diabetes). Not enough context to tell, as usual...
