If you are diagnosed with conditions that affect the functioning of your kidneys, your healthcare provider will use the kidney function test to monitor them. Your healthcare provider might also ask you to get a kidney function test done if you are exhibiting symptoms of kidney problems. Some common symptoms of kidney issues include:-

• Blood in urine
• Painful urination
• Frequent urge to pee
• Troubles when starting to pee

The kidney function test is a simple test that requires your blood samples to check for the different components. No special preparation or fasting is required for the kidney function test.

During The Kidney Function Test (KFT)

After you book your kidney function test via PharmEasy, a vaccinated and expert phlebotomist will visit your house at the scheduled time slot. They will use the vein finder to accurately locate your veins and use sealed sterilized needles to collect blood samples.

The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the tests may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.

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.
