Complete 10-parameter renal profile measuring Serum Creatinine, Blood Urea, Uric Acid, Calcium, and Electrolytes at Booth No. 8, Sector 69/70 Mohali. Same-day verified digital reports.
The Kidney Function Test (KFT), also known as the Renal Function Test (RFT), is an essential diagnostic blood screening panel that checks how effectively your kidneys filter metabolic wastes and fluid from your bloodstream. Healthy kidneys filter out creatinine, urea, and excess salts while keeping essential proteins in the body. An imbalance in these blood markers is the earliest indicator of kidney dysfunction, chronic kidney disease (CKD), high blood pressure strain, or diabetic nephropathy.
Standardized clinical parameters reported with automated accuracy:
| Parameter | Diagnostic Importance | Normal Reference Range |
|---|---|---|
| Serum Creatinine | Key waste product of muscle metabolism; primary benchmark of kidney filtration | 0.7 – 1.3 mg/dL (M) / 0.5 – 1.1 mg/dL (F) |
| Blood Urea | End product of protein breakdown produced in liver and cleared by kidneys | 15 – 40 mg/dL |
| Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) | Specific nitrogen component of urea; assesses hydration & kidney clearance | 7 – 20 mg/dL |
| BUN / Creatinine Ratio | Distinguishes between pre-renal dehydration and intrinsic kidney disease | 10:1 to 20:1 |
| Serum Uric Acid | Byproduct of purine breakdown; elevated levels trigger Gout and kidney stones | 3.5 – 7.2 mg/dL (M) / 2.6 – 6.0 mg/dL (F) |
| Serum Calcium | Monitors mineral metabolism governed by kidney vitamin D activation | 8.8 – 10.2 mg/dL |
| Serum Phosphorus | Evaluates calcium-phosphate balance and parathyroid/renal health | 2.5 – 4.5 mg/dL |
| Sodium (Na+) | Maintains fluid balance, blood volume, and osmotic pressure | 136 – 145 mEq/L |
| Potassium (K+) | Critical electrolyte regulating heartbeat; accumulates when kidneys fail | 3.5 – 5.1 mEq/L |
| Chloride (Cl-) | Assists in maintaining proper acid-base and fluid equilibrium | 98 – 107 mEq/L |
If you are having a KFT as part of a Full Body Health Checkup or combined with Fasting Blood Sugar/Lipids, 10-12 hours fasting is required.
