Kidneys play an important role in the removal of waste products and maintenance of water and electrolyte balance in the body. Kidney Function Test (KFT) includes a group of blood tests to determine how well the kidneys are working. It is advised in case of symptoms suggestive of kidney problems such as puffiness around eyes, bloody or foamy urine, frequent urge to urinate etc.
This test is usually a part of routine health checkups. It helps to diagnose kidney related disorders as well as monitor the treatment efficacy of kidney diseases.

What are renal/kidney function tests?
Renal or kidney function tests are a series of blood and urine tests that assess the functioning of the kidneys. These tests help evaluate how well the kidneys are working, detect any potential kidney disorders or diseases, and monitor the response to treatment.

Why are renal/kidney function tests performed?
Renal/kidney function tests are performed to assess the overall health and functioning of the kidneys. These tests can help diagnose various kidney conditions, such as kidney disease, kidney infections, kidney stones, and evaluate the effectiveness of treatments for these conditions. They are also used to monitor the progression of chronic kidney disease and the side effects of certain medications.

What components are tested in renal/kidney function tests?
Renal/kidney function tests typically measure the levels of certain substances in the blood and urine. Common components tested include blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine protein, and urine albumin. Additional tests may be ordered depending on the specific needs of the patient and the suspected kidney condition.
-
How are renal/kidney function tests conducted?
Renal/kidney function tests involve both blood and urine samples. Blood samples are collected by taking a blood draw from a vein, usually in the arm. The urine sample is typically collected in a clean container during a specific time period or through a 24-hour urine collection. The samples are then sent to a laboratory for analysis.

These results, along with other clinical findings, help healthcare providers diagnose and manage kidney conditions.
