What is URINE ALBUMIN 24 HOURS?
This test measures how much albumin, a main blood protein, is lost in urine over 24 hours. Albumin normally stays in the blood and small amounts in urine are expected. It is particularly important for people with diabetes or hypertension, the two leading causes of chronic kidney disease in India, responsible for over 60% of cases requiring dialysis.

What do URINE ALBUMIN 24 HOURS results mean?
Higher or positive results: A high 24‑hour urine protein indicates significant proteinuria, suggesting kidney damage or increased glomerular permeability from diabetes, hypertension, infections, autoimmune disease, or drugs. Your doctor reads the value against the reference range on your report and your symptoms, and may repeat a borderline result to confirm it.
How often should URINE ALBUMIN 24 HOURS be repeated?
Adults with no risk factors and a normal result: annually from age 30. Diabetics and hypertensives: at least once a year, often every 6 months. Patients with known kidney disease: at the interval set by their nephrologist. Anyone starting a drug cleared by the kidneys: at baseline and periodically thereafter.
What happens after your URINE ALBUMIN 24 HOURS results are ready?
Once your results appear in your GetVisit profile, discuss them with your doctor or a GetVisit-verified specialist. Your doctor will interpret each value in the context of your full health history, current medications, and symptoms, and advise on the next step: lifestyle change, repeat testing, medication adjustment, or specialist referral.
