The kidneys are included in the genitourinary system. You have two kidneys on either side of your spine. They are positioned just below the ribcage, at the back of your abdomen.

The kidneys play several crucial roles in the body to maintain your health. One of the most important functions of the kidneys is to filter waste materials from the blood and remove them through urine excretion. In addition, the kidneys are essential  for the production of:

• Hormones that maintain blood pressure
• Oxygen carrying red blood cells
• Vitamin D, that keeps the bones and muscles healthy

The kidneys also help to maintain the levels of water and various essential minerals in the body. If your doctor suspects that your kidneys are not working properly, you may need a kidney function test. If you're looking to get a kidney function test done at PharmEasy, here's what tests they offer:

• Uric Acid
• Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)/Serum Urea
• Calcium (Ca)
• Creatinine
• EGFR
• BUN/Creatinine Ratio
• Urea/Creatinine Ratio
• Urea (Calculated)

Certain factors can increase your risk of kidney damage, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, smoking habits, or a family history of kidney disease. If you have any of these, a kidney function test is more crucial to monitor your health.

Doctors recommend a KFT to get a proper evaluation of your kidney's current health. A KFT test helps to detect any kidney-related health conditions that you might have. The symptoms that may prompt your doctor to prescribe a kidney function test are as follows:

• Frequent urges to urinate
• Pain while urinating
• Difficulty starting to urinate
• Blood in urine or dark coloured urine
• Increasing blood pressure
• Buildup of fluids in the body leading to swelling in the hands and feet

A KFT does not require fasting or any preparation before the test. You can eat or drink according to your daily routine.

During the Kidney Function Test

KFT is a blood test, so the phlebotomist will come to the address provided by the user to collect a blood sample. Blood is drawn from a vein in your arm which will be located with the help of a vein finder. The phlebotomist will use clean needles and syringes and after the blood drawing is done, the sample will be sealed in a fresh container.
