Kidney Function Tests

Kidney Function Tests (KFTs) are a comprehensive set of blood and urine investigations used to evaluate how effectively the kidneys filter waste products, regulate fluids, and maintain electrolyte balance in the body. Healthy kidney function is essential for overall metabolic and cardiovascular health.

These tests are commonly recommended for individuals with diabetes, hypertension, recurrent urinary infections, or symptoms such as swelling, fatigue, or changes in urine output.

• Measurement of serum creatinine, blood urea, and electrolytes
• Estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)
• Urine analysis to detect protein, blood, or infection
• Early detection of acute and chronic kidney disease
• Monitoring kidney health in diabetes and high blood pressure
• Assessment before surgery, contrast scans, or long-term medication use

Kidney Function Tests help doctors identify kidney problems at an early stage, monitor disease progression, and adjust treatment plans to prevent further kidney damage.

Regular kidney monitoring enables timely intervention, improves treatment outcomes, and supports long-term kidney health and overall well-being.
