URINE TEST CRUCIAL DETECTION OF KIDNEY DISEASE

HOW URINE REVEALS KIDNEY HEALTH

Healthy kidneys filter waste into urine. Changes in urine composition, like proteins or blood cells, can indicate kidney disease early.

PROTEINURIA: PROTEINS IN URINE

Proteinuria occurs when damaged kidneys leak protein into urine. Early detection helps prevent further kidney damage and manage disease effectively.

HEMATURIA: BLOOD IN URINE

Hematuria is the presence of blood cells in urine. It can signal kidney disease or urinary problems, requiring further tests for accurate diagnosis.

ALBUMIN TO CREATININE RATIO

The ACR test measures albumin in urine compared to creatinine. Detecting microalbuminuria early allows timely intervention to slow kidney disease.

TYPES OF URINE TESTS

Standard urinalysis, microalbuminuria tests, and 24-hour urine collection detect kidney issues at different stages, helping doctors assess kidney function.

ADVANCED HOME TESTING

Smartphone-enabled home tests and Minuteful Kidney Test detect kidney disease with high sensitivity. Home testing makes early detection easier.

WHO SHOULD GET TESTED

People with diabetes, high blood pressure, family history of kidney disease, or symptoms like swelling should get regular urine tests for early detection.

WHY URINE TESTING MATTERS

Regular urine tests help catch kidney disease early, improve treatment outcomes, and prevent complications, empowering people to protect their kidney health.
