Analyses of creatinema in the cases of global respiratory failure was performed in this paper. The patients with global respiratory failure treated in General Hospital in TeSanj have been followed. For all patients laboratory analyses have been performed on the admimtion and in the time of clinical status improvement, including creatinin level, K, Na, Hb, Htc, and blood gas analyses with mesurement of pO2 pCO2 pH, BE, saturation of the blood with oxgen, BE and HCO3-. Creatinine level have been considered in coleration of body mass index, and general nutritional status. The dinamic source of creatinine level in the blood have been followed, in relation of parameters of respiratory status. The statistical significance in relation of creatinine level with the respiratory status was registrated. With the improvement of respiratory status and laboratory analyses related to respiratory status, decrease of creatinin level was registrated. Because of that the therapy given to the patients with respiratory failure could influence on potassium level, the relation of creatinnemia and potassium level in the blood wasn't considered. The high creatinin level couldn't be explained with the initial renal failure, but as the sign of metbolic adaptation to hypoxemic and hypoxyc situation on the body. The registration of high creatinine level in the situations of global respiratory failure could be the guidelines for the choice of the antibiotics for these patients, mostly for potentially nephrotoxic antibiotics, like aminoglicosides, and theirs combinations. The decision and evaluation of benefit and toxicity of antibiotics for these situations could be easier.
