What is 24 Hrs Urinary Creatinine?

This test measures the amount of creatinine, a waste product from muscle metabolism, excreted in your urine over a 24-hour period. It helps assess kidney function and is often used to calculate other urinary substance levels accurately.

Why is this test important?

A 24-hour urinary creatinine test is crucial for evaluating kidney health, diagnosing kidney disease, and monitoring its progression. It can also help assess muscle mass and hydration status.

How to Prepare

You will need to collect all your urine over a 24-hour period. Specific instructions will be provided on how to collect and store the sample.
