Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio, Urine test is used to measure the amount of albumin in urine. Albumin level keeps fluctuating throughout the day, hence this test helps to measure the albumin level more accurately, as it gives a ratio of albumin to creatinine. Albumin is a protein found in the blood and is filtered by the kidneys. It is excreted in the urine in very low amount. The presence of high level of albumin in the urine is usually an indication of a kidney disease. This test is crucial as it helps to detect a kidney problem at an early stage even before the onset of any symptoms. Values above normal indicate albuminuria. Sometimes a very low amount of albumin can also be due to urinary tract infection. This test is recommended on a regular basis to the patients suffering from diabetes and hypertension as they are more prone to kidney problems.
It is primarily used to assess kidney function and detect the presence of proteinuria.
Albumin is a protein that is normally present in the blood, but only in small amounts in the urine. An increased level of albumin in the urine, known as albuminuria, can be indicative of kidney damage or dysfunction. Creatinine, on the other hand, is a waste product produced by the muscles that is excreted in the urine. It serves as a marker of kidney function.
The 24-hour urinary ACR test involves collecting all urine passed over a 24-hour period. The urine sample is sent to a laboratory, where the albumin and creatinine concentrations are measured. The ratio of albumin to creatinine is then calculated based on these measurements.
High levels of urinary ACR indicate the presence of albuminuria, which can be a sign of kidney damage or dysfunction. It is commonly used to detect and monitor conditions such as diabetic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, and hypertension-related kidney damage.
Depending on the results of the test, healthcare providers may recommend further evaluation, lifestyle modifications, medications, or interventions to manage kidney health and prevent further damage. Regular monitoring of the urinary ACR may be necessary to assess treatment effectiveness and make necessary adjustments to protect kidney function.
