Risks and Limitations
Risks / Possible Complications
A Kidney function test is a very standard blood test with very rare chances of complications. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience:
- Prolonged bleeding from the puncture site
- Pain or swelling at the collection site
Limitations
- Interference with test results due to machine or human errors
- Misinterpretation of the markers
Test Result Interpretation
If the values of the RFT tests are higher or lower than the normal range, it means that there is an underlying renal disease condition. The results of each test help the doctor to get a better picture of the overall health of the kidneys. Having an abnormal RFT value in just one of the components of the renal function test may not confirm a kidney disease. The test results of RFT are to be matched with the patient's medical history and health status.
