Kidney Profile Blood & Urine Test London

The Kidney Profile (SP41) is a comprehensive kidney function test that evaluates how effectively your kidneys filter waste products, regulate fluid balance, and maintain healthy electrolyte levels. Using both blood and urine samples, this profile assesses key markers of renal health and can help detect early signs of kidney disease, impaired kidney function, dehydration, or electrolyte imbalances. Available at Medical Diagnosis Victoria (MDX Victoria) in London, with results typically available within 5 days.

Sample Collection Guide

Sample Collection Guide

For the urine component of this panel, a first-morning urine sample is recommended to measure the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) most accurately; alternatively, a 24-hour collection can be used. Upon arrival, please check in at reception. A qualified professional will guide you through the collection process for both your blood and urine samples.

How To Read Your Laboratory Results

Your results will list your values alongside standard reference ranges. If a result falls outside the range, it is noted for review. Important: A single out-of-range value does not automatically indicate a medical problem. Results must be assessed in conjunction with your medical history and clinical examination.

Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within 5 days. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a first-morning urine sample recommended for ACR?
A first-morning sample is more concentrated and provides a more accurate assessment of albumin leakage, which helps in detecting early signs of kidney damage.

What does eGFR tell me about my kidney function?
eGFR provides a standardized estimate of your filtration rate. It is one of the most important metrics doctors use to classify kidney function stages.

Can hydration affect my kidney blood results?
Yes, your hydration status can influence markers like sodium and creatinine levels. It is helpful to remain well-hydrated leading up to your visit.

What should I do if my microalbumin levels are elevated?
Elevated microalbumin can be an early indicator of kidney stress. We recommend scheduling a Private GP consultation to discuss the results and any necessary management.

Is the phlebotomy fee included in the price?
No, the £21 phlebotomy service fee is separate and payable directly at the clinic.

Will my results be sent securely?
Yes, your laboratory results will be delivered securely and privately to the email address provided.

Most Searched Online Questions About Kidney Health

What are early signs of kidney issues?
Early signs are often subtle and may include changes in urination, fatigue, swelling in the legs or ankles, and persistent itching.

Why is diabetes a risk factor for kidney disease?
High blood sugar levels over time can damage the delicate filtration units in the kidneys, leading to decreased function.

How does blood pressure affect my kidneys?
Uncontrolled high blood pressure puts extra strain on the blood vessels in the kidneys, eventually reducing their ability to filter waste efficiently.

Can kidney disease be reversed?
While damage is often permanent, early management of conditions like diabetes and hypertension can significantly slow progression and maintain function.
