Short Description

Albumin creatinine ratio (ACR) in urine is a sensitive and specific measure of kidney damage. Urinalysis for albuminuria has been accepted as a useful way of identifying patients at risk of progressive Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and its classification. Increased urinary albumin excretion is highly predictive of Diabetic Nephropathy, End-stage renal disease, Cardiovascular mortality, and total mortality in patients with Diabetes Mellitus.

A MICROALBUMIN/ALBUMIN 1ST MORNING / RANDOM URINE test is a simple urine test that measures the levels of two proteins - albumin and microalbumin - in your urine. These proteins are normally present in your blood, but when your kidneys are not functioning properly, they can leak into your urine.

A high level of albumin or microalbumin in your urine can be a sign of kidney damage or disease. It can also be an early warning sign of other health issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
