The Protein/Creatinine Ratio Random Urine Test is a diagnostic test used to measure the ratio of protein to creatinine in a random urine sample. This test helps evaluate kidney function by detecting proteinuria, which can be an early sign of kidney damage or disease. This test is preferred over 24-hour urine collection as it provides a reliable estimate of protein levels in a single sample. It is commonly used to monitor kidney health, especially in individuals with conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or chronic kidney disease (CKD).

he test is vital in assessing conditions such as: Elevated Protein/Creatinine Ratio: Kidney damage or disease Diabetes-related nephropathy Hypertension-related kidney issues Autoimmune diseases affecting kidneys, such as lupus nephritis Low Protein/Creatinine Ratio: Indicates normal kidney function or no significant protein loss Early detection and monitoring of abnormal protein levels can prevent complications like chronic kidney failure or cardiovascular diseases.
