During the Kidney Function Test (KFT)

For a kidney blood test, an experienced phlebotomist will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small needle. The vein will be located using a vein finder. The blood is stored in a small collection tube. It is made sure that proper hygiene is maintained throughout the test to avoid any contamination.

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.
