Test Description & Overview
URINE MICROALBUMIN: A renal panel, urinalysis parameter, or urine microalbumin index used to evaluate kidney filtration capacity, urinary tract health, or solute output.
Varies by laboratory. Typically defined within reference intervals.
Elevated (High) Values
- Early glomerular filtration damage (high microalbumin)
- Active bacterial urinary tract infection (high WBC & positive culture)
- Hematuria indicating stones or trauma (high RBC)
Decreased (Low) Values
- Normal renal filtration state
- Absence of active infection
Clinical Alignment & Significance
URINE MICROALBUMIN evaluation: Elevated microalbuminuria (>30 mg/g) is a marker of early diabetic or hypertensive nephropathy. Positive nitrites and high WBC counts in urinalysis confirm UTI, needing culture confirmation.
