What is a Aldosterone Test in Visit Clinic?

What is Aldosterone?

Aldosterone evaluates renal health by measuring specific waste products or electrolytes in the blood or urine. It helps nephrologists detect kidney disease early , often before symptoms appear , and track progression in patients with existing renal conditions.

What does Aldosterone measure?

The aldosterone test measures the amount of the hormone aldosterone in your blood. Aldosterone is made by the adrenal glands. It helps control sodium and potassium levels and keeps blood pressure stable. The test quantifies a specific biological marker using techniques such as immunoassay, colorimetric analysis, or microscopy. Results are reported with the measured value, unit, and reference range, allowing your doctor to interpret findings in the context of your health profile.

What do the results of Aldosterone mean?

Reference ranges represent values within which 95% of healthy people fall. A result just outside this range does not automatically mean disease is present , clinical context matters. Your doctor combines the test result with your symptoms, age, risk factors, and medical history to make the right clinical decision.
