To convert the values for creatinine to micromoles per liter, multiply by 88.4. To convert the values for triglycerides to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.01129.

Reference values are affected by many variables, including the patient population and the laboratory methods used. The ranges used at Massachusetts General Hospital are for adults who are not pregnant and do not have medical conditions that could affect the results. They may therefore not be appropriate for all patients.
