    What is Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test?

    The Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio Urine test assesses the presence of albumin in your urine compared to creatinine. Albumin is a protein found in the blood while creatinine is a waste product from muscle metabolism. Healthy kidneys filter out waste products from the blood, preventing larger molecules, such as albumin, from passing in the urine. Normally, only minimal or no albumin is present in urine. However, higher amounts of albumin may leak into the urine when kidney function is compromised. Referred to as albuminuria or proteinuria, this can signal potential kidney impairment that requires further evaluation and management, especially in people with risk factors such as diabetes or hypertension. This test therefore helps in the early detection of kidney damage or disease and allows for timely intervention to prevent their progression.

    If you’re worried about your kidney health, getting a Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio Urine test in Bangalore can be a quick and easy solution to detect signs of early damage.

    Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test Parameters

    The Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test measures only one parameter, the level of albumin in the urine compared to the creatinine concentration in it. Albumin levels are normally low or undetectable in the urine of healthy individuals. High amounts of albumin into the urine when the kidneys are not functioning properly. Creatinine, on the other hand, is consistently present in urine. The microalbumin creatinine ratio compares the levels of albumin to creatinine, providing a more specific measurement of albumin excretion.

    Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test Preparation

    • Prerequisites: Fasting is not required for the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested : This test can be taken at any time of the day unless your doctor provides specific instructions regarding timing or sample collection.

    • Who Should Get a Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio Urine Test: This test is recommended for people with diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of kidney disease to detect early kidney damage.

    • Cautions Before Taking a Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio Urine Test: Before taking the test, it is recommended to avoid intense exercise, as it may temporarily raise albumin levels. Additionally, hold back from eating meat for at least one day prior, as it can affect creatinine levels. Consult your doctor for any other specific instructions to ensure accurate results.

    Why Take the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test?

    The Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test is very useful in the diagnosis and management of kidney diseases and serves the following purposes:

    • Early detection : Identifies the presence of albumin in urine, indicating potential kidney damage before severe symptoms appear.

    • Risk assessment : Helps to monitor kidney health in high-risk individuals such as those who:

    • Have high blood pressure

    • Have diabetes

    • Have obesity

    • Have heart disease

    • Have a family history of diabetes, high blood pressure or kidney disease

    • Are over 50 years old

    • Smoke

    • Are pregnant and have signs of preeclampsia (high blood pressure)

    • Monitoring treatment : If you have been diagnosed with kidney disease, a Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test may be used to monitor your condition and assess the effectiveness of your treatment.

    Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test Results and Interpretation

    Normal levels of the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test should be below 30 milligrams per gram (mg/g). This indicates that there is minimal to no albumin leakage into the urine, signifying healthy kidney function. Here’s what abnormal levels can indicate:

    • Elevated levels: If your test results fall between 30-300 mg/g it may be a sign of microalbuminuria. This condition refers to the presence of a small amount of albumin in the urine, indicating early signs of kidney damage.

    • Extremely elevated levels: If your test results are more than 300 mg/g, you may have a condition called macroalbuminuria. This indicates a higher level of albumin in the urine, which may signify more advanced kidney damage.

    Your test results can be influenced by factors such as age, race, muscle mass and diet. If your results are abnormal, your doctor will recommend additional kidney function tests, including a blood test known as the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) test. Discuss your results with your doctor to understand them better and the measures you can take to lower albumin levels in your urine.
