About kidney function tests

A kidney function panel measures creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), eGFR, uric acid and electrolytes. eGFR, the estimated glomerular filtration rate, is calculated from creatinine and estimates how well the kidneys are filtering. A uric acid test is also used to assess the risk of gout and kidney stones.

Who these tests are commonly ordered for

Doctors commonly order these tests for people with diabetes or high blood pressure, for people with a family history of kidney disease, for people taking medicines that can affect the kidneys, and for people with symptoms such as swelling in the legs or face, reduced urine output, foamy urine or blood in the urine. A doctor can advise whether and how often to test.
