Renal Function/Kidney Function Test
What the Kidney Function blood test checks
The Renal Function/Kidney Function Test measures waste products and electrolytes that are filtered or regulated by the kidneys. These markers can help assess kidney function, hydration, and salt balance.
This test may be useful for routine health screening, monitoring kidney-related concerns, or checking kidney markers if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or take medicines that can affect kidney function.
Biomarkers included
Creatinine
Potassium
Sodium
Urea
