SPOT PROTEIN/CREATININE RATIO
₹300.00
Test Description: Spot Protein/Creatinine Ratio
The Spot Protein/Creatinine Ratio test is a urine test used to assess protein levels in the urine, which can indicate kidney damage or disease. It measures the ratio of protein to creatinine in a single urine sample, providing an estimate of protein excretion over 24 hours without the need for a full 24-hour urine collection. An elevated protein/creatinine ratio may suggest conditions such as glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, or preeclampsia, indicating kidney stress or damage. This test is commonly used for monitoring kidney function, particularly in patients with conditions like diabetes or hypertension.
