What is 24 hrs Urinary Microalbumin?

24-Hour Urinary Microalbumin is a test that measures the amount of microalbumin (a small protein) in the urine over a 24-hour period. It is used to assess kidney function, particularly in individuals at risk for diabetic nephropathy or hypertensive kidney damage.

Elevated microalbumin levels indicate early kidney damage and can be a sign of kidney disease before more significant symptoms or changes in kidney function occur. The test involves collecting all urine for 24 hours, with no special preparation needed, though patients may be asked to avoid strenuous exercise or certain medications before the test.

What to expect & how to prepare

24 hrs Urinary Microalbumin is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your 24 hrs Urinary Microalbumin result rather than self-diagnosing.
