Why This Test Is Important:
The Spot Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio (UPCR) test is a quick and reliable method to assess protein loss in the urine, which can be an early sign of kidney dysfunction or disease.
Normally, the kidneys prevent proteins from leaking into the urine. But if the kidneys are damaged—due to diabetes, hypertension, or other conditions—protein (especially albumin) may leak into urine in large amounts. The UPCR test helps measure this loss accurately without requiring a 24-hour urine collection.
Who Should Take This Test?
✅ People with diabetes
✅ Individuals with high blood pressure
✅ Those with chronic kidney disease or at risk
✅ Anyone experiencing swelling in legs, face, or abdomen
✅ Patients on medications affecting kidney function
