Kidney health home test kit is an innovative and convenient solution for monitoring the health of your kidneys. With early detection of microalbuminuria, you can take control of your kidney health and prevent any further complications.

Diagnostics kidney health at-home test kit is an innovative solution that makes monitoring the health of your kidneys more accessible and convenient than ever before. Our kit is specifically designed to detect microalbuminuria, an important indicator of kidney damage, so that you can take proactive steps to maintain your kidney health.

Microalbuminuria is a condition where small amounts of a protein called albumin leak into the urine. This leakage can be a sign of early kidney damage, which if left untreated, can lead to chronic kidney disease or even kidney failure. Our test kit enables you to detect microalbuminuria early, which is crucial in preventing further kidney problems and maintaining your overall health.

The test is quick and easy to use, and can be performed from the comfort of your own home. You simply collect a urine sample and use the test kit to detect levels of microalbuminuria. If the test results indicate a positive result, it is important that you follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and testing.

Early detection of microalbuminuria can lead to early treatment and management of kidney problems. This can include lifestyle changes, such as reducing salt and protein intake, as well as medication to control blood pressure and blood sugar levels. By taking steps to manage your kidney health, you can prevent further damage and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Instructions

To ensure accurate and reliable results, it is important to follow the instructions carefully when using the kidney test kit. Here are the steps to use the kit correctly:

1. Allow the test kit to reach room temperature before use. This can take approximately 30 minutes.
2. Collect a urine specimen in a clean plastic or glass container. Ensure the container has been thoroughly cleaned and dried beforehand.
3. Remove the test strip from the foil pouch. Use the strip as soon as possible after opening the pouch.
4. Dip the test strip in the urine sample up to the maximum line for at least 10-15 seconds. It’s important not to exceed the maximum line.
5. Remove the strip from the specimen container and place it on a non-absorbent, flat surface. Alternatively, you can take the urine sample by urinating directly onto the strip for at least 10-15 seconds. Avoid immersing the plastic part of the strip into the midstream.
6. Wait for the coloured line(s) to appear. The result should be read at 3-5 minutes. It’s important not to read the result after 10 minutes, as this could result in inaccurate readings.

By following these steps, you can ensure that you obtain reliable and accurate results from the kidney test kit. It’s important to note that the test kit is not a substitute for a medical diagnosis or professional medical advice. If you receive a positive result, it’s important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and testing.

Reading the Results

Interpreting the results of the kidney test kit accurately is important for ensuring proper diagnosis and treatment. Here is a detailed explanation of the different results you may obtain:

1. Negative Result: A negative result is indicated by the appearance of two red lines. One line appears in the test line region (T), and the other in the control line region (C). This indicates that the level of albumin in urine is below the cut-off value. A negative result is a good sign, but it’s important to keep in mind that it doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t have any kidney problems. If you’re experiencing symptoms, it’s still important to seek medical advice.

2. Positive Result: A positive result is indicated by the appearance of only one coloured line in the control line region (C) and no line in the test line region (T). This indicates that the level of albumin in urine is above the cut-off value. It’s important to note that a faint line in the T line region, like G3-G4 shown in the colour card included, is still considered a positive result. This indicates that the concentration of albumin present in the urine is around the cut-off value. A positive result suggests that further testing and medical attention are needed to diagnose and treat any underlying kidney problems.

3. Invalid Result: An invalid result is indicated by the absence of a red line in the control line region (C). This may occur if the instructions were not followed correctly, or if the product has been damaged. If you obtain an invalid result, it’s important to repeat the test with a new cassette, following the instructions carefully. If the problem still persists, refrain from using this batch of product immediately and contact the supplier for further guidance.

By following the instructions carefully and interpreting the results accurately, you can obtain reliable and accurate results from the kidney test kit. Remember that the test kit is not a substitute for professional medical advice or diagnosis. If you have any concerns or questions about your results, it’s important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and testing.
