Abstract

The kidney is a vital organ that performs a number of essential metabolic functions. In renal failure, the kidneys are no longer able to function normally. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of urea, creatinine, and potassium test results on chronic kidney disease ents with kidney failure whose medical records serve as the sample. Test employing the Pearson correlation test. This study's correlation analysis revealed a correlation between urea and potassium with a significance level of 0.000. The correlation between creatinine and potassium has a sig value of 0.004 as well. The coefficient of correlation between urea and potassium is 0.592, while the coefficient of correlation between creatinine and potassium is 0.366. Accordingly, there is a strong correlation between urea and potassium levels and creatinine and potassium levels in patients with chronic kidney failure and the direction of the test. With these results, it is possible to conclude that there is a correlation between urea, creatinine, and potassium levels.
