  1. KIDNEY FUNCTION TEST LABS IN DELHI The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs that extract waste from blood, balance body fluids, form urine, and aid in other important functions of the body. Then it comes to components of the urinary system, the kidneys are multi-functional powerhouses of activity. Some of the core actions of the kidneys Waste excretion Water level balancing Blood pressure regulation Red blood cell regulation Acid regulation

  2. If your doctor thinks your kidneys may not be working properly, you may need kidney function tests. These are simple blood and urine tests that can identify problems with your kidneys. You may also need kidney function testing done if you have other conditions that can harm the kidneys, such as diabetes or high blood pressure. They can help doctors monitor these conditions. KIDNEY FUNCTION TEST Creatinine — Spot A creatinine urine test measures the amount of creatine in your urine. The test can help you doctor evaluate how well your kidneys are functioning. This is useful for diagnosing or ruling out kidney disease and other conditions affecting the kidneys. Rs 200- Rs 600

  3. Serum Creatinine Serum Creatinine which is also known as creatinine blood test is done to measure the creatinine levels in the blood. Creatinine is the waste product. If high levels of creatinine are found in the body then that can mean your kidneys are either damaged or not working properly. Rs80- Rs500 Kidney Function Test (6)    You have two kidneys on either side of your spine that are each  approximately the size of a human fist. They’re located posterior to your  abdomen and below your rib cage. Your kidneys play several vital roles in  maintaining your health. One of their most important jobs is to filter waste  materials from the blood and expel them from the body as urine. The  kidneys also help control the levels of water and various essential minerals  in the body.     

  4.   USES  Symptoms that may indicate a problem with your kidneys include: high  blood pressure blood in the urine frequent urges to urinate difficulty  beginning urination painful urination swelling of the hands and feet due  to a buildup of fluids in the body Your doctor will focus on treating the  underlying condition if the tests show early kidney disease. Your doctor  will prescribe medications to control the blood pressure if the tests  indicate hypertension. They’ll also suggest lifestyle and dietary  modifications.      Kidney Function (5)  Kidney function or renal function is vital to good health. The pair of kidneys  filters the toxins from our blood through urine and helps cleanse the body.  It’s recommended to conduct routine kidney function tests to rule out any  abnormalities. Blood/urine tests help to monitor any kidney problems.  Broadly, kidney function test comprises of many blood/urine tests which  monitor various parameters related to the kidney function. The kidney ACR  and GFR values are considered to be of great importance. The GFR  (Glomerular Filtration Rate) test result determines how well the toxins or  waste materials are being filtered by the kidneys.      

  5. USES  If GFR value is below 60, it indicates kidney disease. The GFR number  depends on the creatinine level in the blood. A damaged kidney is unable to  filter creatinine produced by the muscle tissue well enough from the blood.  Usually, a low GFR test result is followed by a repeated test to be doubly  sure. Continued very low GFR value for 3 months indicate kidney disease.  If ACR value is high or positive, it indicates kidney disease. Presence of  albumin or protein in the urine means that the kidney is not filtering the  blood well enough. Protein is meant to be present in the blood and not  in the urine. Usually, a positive ACR test result is followed by a repeated  test to be doubly sure     ​Kidney Function Test in Delhi Metropolis — Connaught Place DelhiCAP NABL SANAS AccreditedConnaught Place, Delhi Thyrocare — Connaught Place DelhiCAP NABL ISO 9001 AccreditedConnaught Place, Delhi
