About this test
The Microalbumin/Creatinine Ratio (Random Urine) test measures albumin and creatinine levels in a single urine sample to detect early kidney damage.
The Microalbumin/Creatinine Ratio (Random Urine) test is a diagnostic test used to measure small amounts of albumin in urine and compare it with creatinine levels in a single (random) urine sample. This ratio helps in accurately assessing kidney function without the need for a 24-hour urine collection.
Albumin is a protein that is normally present in very small amounts in urine. Increased levels may indicate early kidney damage, especially in individuals with diabetes or hypertension.
The purpose of the Microalbumin / Creatinine Ratio (Random Urine) Test is to
- To measure microalbumin and creatinine levels in urine
- To detect early signs of kidney damage
- To monitor kidney function in diabetic patients
- To assess risk of chronic kidney disease
- To evaluate protein leakage in urine
