Can a high BUN level cause one to be incoherent?
yes
Why would BUN be high?
A high blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level can indicate kidney dysfunction, dehydration, excessive protein intake, or certain medications like corticosteroids. Kidney disease, heart failure, and gastrointestinal bleeding can also lead to high BUN levels.
Is high bun in blood acidic or alkaline?
A high level of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) typically indicates kidney dysfunction and is associated with metabolic acidosis, leading to an acidic pH in the blood. Monitoring BUN levels can help assess kidney function and acid-base balance in the body.
What if a BUN blood level is 78?
My son has end stage renal failure and his bun level is 78
What is normal bun creatinine level?
Bun > 100 creatinine >15
What does the medical abbreviation BUN mean?
Blood Urea NitrogenBlood Urea Nitrogen, a high level usually means impaired kidney function.it is the blood urea nitrogen. Elevated in dehydration, kidney problems and others things.BUN = Blood Urea NitrogenA blood urea nitrogen (BUN) test measures the amount of nitrogen in your blood that comes from the waste product urea. Urea is made when protein is broken down in your body. Urea is made in the liver and passed out of your body in the urine.A BUN test is done to see how well your kidneys are working. If your kidneys are not able to remove urea from the blood normally, your BUN level rises. Heart failure, dehydration or a diet high in protein can also make your BUN level higher. Liver disease or damage can lower your BUN level. A low BUN level can occur normally in the second or third trimester of pregnancy.
What condition does a high creatinine level indicate?
An elevated creatinine level indicates renal insufficiency or renal failure.

Does Gender affect a standard BUN level?
Yes. Typically BUN will be higher in men than it is in women.
How could your bun and creatinine level be high and your ratio be normal?
It is possible for both BUN (blood urea nitrogen) and creatinine levels to be elevated independently due to different conditions affecting kidney function or other factors. The BUN-to-creatinine ratio can be normal if the increase in BUN is proportional to the increase in creatinine, which can happen in certain conditions like dehydration or high protein diet. This can result in a normal ratio despite elevated individual levels.
