₹150.00
Description
- Definition: The Creatinine – Random Urine test measures the concentration of creatinine in a single urine sample collected at any time. It helps assess kidney function and the body’s muscle metabolism.
- Purpose: This test is often used to evaluate kidney health and function, especially in conjunction with other urine tests. It can help detect renal impairment and is commonly used in situations where a 24-hour urine collection is impractical.
- Clinical Relevance: Random urine creatinine levels can be indicative of hydration status and kidney function. It is frequently used in the context of urine drug screening and to assess protein levels in urine, which can signal kidney damage.
- Interpretation: Normal urine creatinine levels vary based on factors such as age, sex, and muscle mass. Abnormal results may suggest conditions like kidney disease or issues with muscle metabolism.
- Testing Method: The test involves collecting a random urine sample, which is then analyzed in a laboratory for creatinine concentration. Results can be expressed in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and may be interpreted alongside other urinary tests for a comprehensive assessment.
