About the kidney function test
A kidney function test measures the waste products your kidneys are supposed to be clearing. Creatinine and urea rise when filtration falls, and the estimated GFR calculated from creatinine is the number nephrologists actually use to stage chronic kidney disease. Diabetes and high blood pressure together account for the large majority of kidney failure in India, and early kidney damage produces no symptoms at all — which is why every diabetic and every hypertensive should have this panel at least once a year, whether or not they feel unwell. For dialysis patients and elderly people with reduced mobility, home collection removes a genuinely difficult trip.
What the KFT test measures
Who usually needs a KFT test
- Every diabetic — at least once a year
- Every hypertensive patient on long-term medication
- Swelling of feet, ankles or around the eyes
- Reduced urine output, or frothy urine
- Known chronic kidney disease — periodic staging
- Dialysis patients between sessions
- Before starting medication that needs renal dose adjustment
- Long-term painkiller (NSAID) users
Preparation: no fasting needed
Fasting is not mandatory, but an 8-hour fasting sample is often preferred when the KFT is part of a wider health check. Stay normally hydrated — dehydration itself raises urea and creatinine.

How we collect your KFT sample at home

KFT normal range — indicative values
What a typical adult reference range looks like for this test.
| Parameter | Indicative adult range |
|---|---|
| Creatinine (men) | 0.7 – 1.3 mg/dL |
| Creatinine (women) | 0.6 – 1.1 mg/dL |
| Blood urea | 15 – 40 mg/dL |
| BUN | 7 – 20 mg/dL |
| eGFR | Above 90 mL/min/1.73m² considered normal |
| Sodium / Potassium | 135 – 145 / 3.5 – 5.1 mmol/L |
Indicative adult reference ranges only. Every laboratory publishes its own reference interval, and values shift with age, sex, pregnancy and medication. These figures are for orientation — never for self-diagnosis. Your report must be interpreted by your treating doctor.
