Can urine microalbumin levels be used to diagnose renal disease?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Based on your laboratory test results, your creatinine level is within the normal range, which is between 0.6 and 1.2 mg/dL for adults. Your urea level is also within the normal range, which is between 20 and 40 mg/dL. Your spot urine microalbumin level is elevated at 42.9 mg/L, which is higher than the normal range of less than 30 mg/L. Microalbumin is a protein that is normally present in low amounts in urine, and an elevated level may be a sign of kidney damage or disease. Your spot urine creatinine level is also elevated at 104.2 mg/dL, which is higher than the normal range of 44 to 133 mg/dL for adults. Creatinine is a waste product that is produced by the muscles and eliminated by the kidneys. An elevated creatinine level may be a sign of kidney disease or impaired kidney function. Your ratio, which is calculated by dividing your spot urine microalbumin level by your spot urine creatinine level, is also elevated at 41.1 mg/dL. This ratio can help determine whether your microalbuminuria is due to kidney disease or other factors, such as high blood pressure or diabetes. Based on these test results, it is possible that you may have kidney damage or disease. Your healthcare provider may recommend additional tests or monitoring to confirm the diagnosis and develop a treatment plan that meets your individual needs and circumstances. They may also recommend lifestyle changes, such as dietary modifications and exercise, to help manage your condition and prevent further damage to your kidneys.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
