Early Detection for Kidney Protection
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You should have a urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio
(UACR) test once a year to help detect any signs of kidney damage
or CKD. Don’t be afraid to ask your doctor for a UACR test if
you’re not sure if you’ve had one. The UACR is not the same as a
typical urine test.
