Comprehensive assessment of kidney health.
- Serum Uric Acid
- BUN
- Serum Creatinine
- Serum Electrolyte
- Urine Routine Examination (Urine R/E)
The Renal Function Test (RFT) is a collection of blood tests designed to evaluate the efficiency of kidney function by measuring the waste products that kidneys filter. This particular panel is instrumental in identifying both acute and chronic kidney diseases, monitoring the renal health of individuals at elevated risk(such as those with diabetes or hypertension), and generally assessing the overall condition of the kidneys.

How our test process works!
Overview:
Renal Function Tests evaluate how well the kidneys are filtering waste and maintaining homeostasis. This panel typically includes:
- Serum Creatinine
- Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
- Urea
- Serum Uric Acid
- Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
Risk Assessment:
- Screen or monitor kidney diseases
- Evaluate hypertension, diabetes, or cardiovascular risk
- Detect drug nephrotoxicity (e.g., NSAIDs, aminoglycosides)
- Assess fluid/electrolyte imbalances
Serum Creatinine:
- Men: 0.7–1.3 mg/dL
- Women: 0.6–1.1 mg/dL
Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): 7–20 mg/dL
Urea: 10–40 mg/dL (may vary)
Serum Uric Acid:
- Men: 3.5–7.0 mg/dL
- Women: 2.5–6.0 mg/dL
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m²
Interpretation:
Urea
-
Elevated in: Kidney dysfunction, dehydration, high protein diet, GI bleeding
-
Decreased in: Liver failure, malnutrition, overhydration
Serum Creatinine
-
Elevated in: Renal impairment, muscle breakdown
-
Decreased in: Low muscle mass
Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
- High in kidney dysfunction, dehydration; low in liver disease
Serum Uric Acid
-
Elevated in: Gout, CKD, high cell turnover
-
Decreased in: Liver disease, SIADH, certain medications
Estimated GFR (eGFR)
- < 60: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) suspicion
-
< 15: Kidney failure
Sample Type:
Serum (venous blood sample)
No fasting required (optional in some labs)
