Kidney Health Self Test - Pack of 1

The Kidney Health Test detects the qualitative levels of albuminuria in urine through an in vitro diagnostic test. It is used as a supplementary method in the diagnosis of chronic kidney injury (CKI). Microalbuminuria (MAU) is a term to describe a moderate increase in the level of urine albumin. It is also named urine microalbuminuria (UMA or mALB). Albumin is a normal protein in the blood, but under physiological conditions it can be detected in small amounts in the urine. MAU occurs when the kidney leaks small amounts of albumin into the urine, which means that increased excretion of albumin (microalbuminuria) is an early indicator of glomerular disease. Research shows that MAU can be caused by diabetic nephropathy, hypertension, and cardiac insufficiency.
