does subarachnoid hemorrhage have an effect in the increase of creatinine level? if so, how?my client has a chief complaint of an elevated creatinine and has a diagnosis of chronic kidney disease stage 2 and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) stage 2. i was just wondering why was arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation was done considering that the chief complaint is the elevated creatinine level? are they related to each other?
if anyone of u knows.. pls help me.. i need to make a pathophysiology of this...
thanks in advance! =)

If he has kidney disease, then they most likely are planning to have him start dialysis.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage has nothing to do with the creatinine level. It has everything to do with kidney disease. Once his creatinine level gets too high then they do a AVF so that he will be ready for dialysis when he needs it. Once the AVF is created it takes several months for the AVF to mature before it can be used.
