Kidney Home Scan -
2 TEST, (Testmedica Diagnostic)
Kidney Home Scan
This test checks for protein in the urine. A positive protein test may indicate a kidney not functioning properly. If protein is present in the urine more testing is required because the normal construction of the kidney prevents protein from being lost in the urine.
A urine protein test is used to detect the presence of protein in a person's urine. Normally, protein is not excreted in urine because the protein molecules are too large to pass through the filtering membranes in the kidneys. If these filtering structures are damaged, protein escapes.
The presence of protein in the urine is an important indicator of kidney disease. The presence of protein may indicate:- Kidney disease, such as chronic renal failure, a form of kidney failure.
- Diabetic nephropathy, a complication of diabetes in which the kidney cells are damaged.
- Kidney injury
- Macroglobulinemia -a serious disease of the plasma causing bleeding tendencies, weight loss, blurred vision, and disease of the lymph nodes
- Multiple myeloma, or abnormal cell growth in the bone marrow
- Amyloidosis, a disease in which starch-like substances are deposited in the tissues and organs of the body
- Congestive heart failure, a condition in which the heart does not pump enough blood to the body tissues.
- Severe muscle exertion.
- Renal vein thrombosis, which is a blood clot in the vein carrying blood away from the kidney.
- Abnormal cell growth of the bladder .
- Pregnant women are routinely tested for protein in the urine during prenatal visits to the healthcare provider. Protein in the urine during pregnancy can indicate preeclampsia, a serious condition that can cause high blood pressure in the mother.
