Service Providers for Urine for Albumin
The Urine for Albumin test measures the level of albumin, a protein, in the urine. It helps detect kidney damage, especially in conditions like diabetes or hypertension. The test is usually performed on a random urine sample, although a 24-hour collection may be required in some cases. No special preparation is needed. Elevated levels of albumin in the urine, a condition known as albuminuria, can indicate kidney dysfunction. Results may be influenced by factors like dehydration or urinary tract infections. Normal activities can be resumed after the test.
