    What Is the Protein Total, Random Urine Test?

    The Protein Total Random Urine test checks the protein levels in a urine sample collected at a random time during the day. Healthy kidneys typically allow only small amounts of protein in the urine, as they filter waste and retain essential proteins in the blood. Proteinuria, or raised protein levels, may indicate kidney damage and is an important marker for assessing kidney function and related health problems.

    This test aids in the early detection of kidney conditions and helps track the effectiveness of therapies for pre-existing kidney disorders. It is beneficial for those with a family history of kidney disease or who are at increased risk due to conditions like diabetes or heart disease. Timely identification of kidney damage through this test allows doctors to recommend appropriate protective actions to prevent further damage.

    Those seeking to monitor their kidney function can conveniently book a Protein Total Random Urine test at home. Orange Health Labs offers a hassle-free, at-home testing service for the Protein Total Random Urine test in Mumbai.

    Protein Total, Random Urine Test Parameters

    The Protein Total Random Urine test evaluates the level of protein in urine, an important marker of kidney health. Proteins like albumin, globulin, and Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein (THG) are essential for bodily functions like repair, immunity, and energy production. Normally, kidneys filter these proteins, keeping them in the blood. When kidney function is impaired, proteins can leak into the urine, a condition known as proteinuria. Proteinuria is not only a sign of kidney damage but is also associated with other conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease.
