    What is Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test?

    This urine test, known as the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, measures albumin levels relative to creatinine in your urine. Albumin is a protein that typically remains in the bloodstream, while creatinine is a waste product eliminated by the kidneys. In a healthy kidney, only minimal amounts of albumin pass into the urine. When higher levels of albumin are present, a condition called albuminuria or proteinuria, it could be an indication of kidney dysfunction. This test is particularly useful for detecting early kidney damage, especially in individuals at risk due to conditions like hypertension or diabetes.

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

    Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test Parameters

    This test, known as the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, measures the amount of albumin in your urine compared to the creatinine concentration. Normally, albumin is barely detectable in the urine of healthy individuals. However, when kidney function declines, albumin levels can increase. Creatinine is always present in urine, and by comparing the two, this test offers a more accurate gauge of albumin excretion.

    Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test Preparation

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

    • Best Time to Get Tested : This test can be taken at any point during the day unless your doctor gives specific instructions about timing or sample collection.

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

    • Cautions Before Taking a Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio Urine Test: You should avoid heavy exercise before the test, as it can temporarily raise albumin levels. In addition, refrain from eating meat at least 24 hours before, as it may alter creatinine levels. Consult your doctor for any additional precautions to ensure accurate results.

    Why Take the Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine Test?

    The Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio test is highly beneficial for diagnosing and managing kidney disease, offering several key functions:

    • Early detection : It detects albumin in urine, an early sign of kidney damage that often appears before major symptoms develop.

    • Risk assessment : This test helps monitor kidney function in people at higher risk, such as those who:

    • Have hypertension

    • Have diabetes

    • Are overweight or obese

    • Have heart disease

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

    • Are over 50 years old

    • Smoke

    • Are pregnant and experiencing preeclampsia symptoms (high blood pressure)

    • Monitoring treatment : For patients with kidney disease, the test is useful in tracking disease progression and evaluating the response to 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.

    Highest Rated Diagnostic Lab

    • Good service .Instant visits. Only thing is the TAT(time) for some test is like too high, e.g CBC by other labs comes in 2 hrs whereas here with orange lab it is set for 6 hrs. An achievable & relaistic value here would be TAT max 4 hrs from time of collection of sample for the result of CBC to arrive. They should revise their TAT accordingly on app and website.
