Overview of the Kidney Function/Renal Function Test
The Renal Function Test (RFT), also called the Kidney Function Test (KFT), is a comprehensive series of tests designed to assess kidney health and performance. These tests evaluate how effectively the kidneys are filtering waste, balancing electrolytes, and supporting overall renal function.
The RFT includes measurements of glucose, electrolytes, minerals, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), proteins, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Through these measurements, doctors can diagnose kidney conditions, monitor kidney function, and guide treatment for patients with renal concerns.
Price of the Kidney Function/Renal Function Test
The kidney function test price in Mumbai can vary based on factors like the healthcare provider, the specific tests included, and any additional services offered. Typically, the KFT test price in Mumbai ranges from Rs. 550 to Rs. 900. Comparing prices and services from various providers is essential to find the option that best suits your needs and budget.

Tests Included in Kidney Function/Renal Function Test
The test consists of several individual tests that collectively provide a comprehensive assessment of kidney health. Here are the key tests included in the kidney profile test in Mumbai:
- Creatinine - Serum: Measures the level of creatinine, a waste product from muscle metabolism. Elevated levels indicate impaired kidney function.
- Urea: Measures the level of urea, a waste product from protein metabolism. Elevated levels can indicate kidney dysfunction, but can also be influenced by other factors.
- Blood Urea Nitrogen: Similar to urea, the nitrogen content in urea is measured to assess kidney function. It is affected by factors such as dehydration and certain medications.
- Uric Acid - Serum: Measures the level of uric acid, a waste product from the breakdown of purines. Elevated levels can indicate kidney dysfunction or gout.
- Calcium - Serum: Measures the level of calcium in the blood to assess its balance, which is regulated by the kidneys. Abnormal levels can indicate kidney disease or other metabolic disorders.
- Phosphorus, Inorganic - Serum: Measures the level of phosphorus in the blood, which is crucial for bone health and cellular functions. Kidneys regulate phosphorus balance by controlling its excretion in urine.
- Sodium - Serum: Measures the level of sodium in the blood, an electrolyte crucial for fluid balance and nerve function. Kidneys adjust sodium excretion to maintain balance.
- Potassium - Serum/Plasma: Measures the level of potassium in the blood, an electrolyte vital for muscle and nerve function.
- Chloride - Serum: Measures the level of chloride in the blood, an electrolyte important for maintaining fluid balance.
- Protein, Total - Serum: Measures the total level of proteins in the blood, including albumin and globulin. Abnormal levels can indicate kidney or liver disorders.
- Albumin - Serum: Measures the level of albumin, a key protein that the kidneys should retain. Decreased levels can indicate kidney damage or malnutrition.
- Globulin: Measures the level of globulins, a group of proteins that includes antibodies and enzymes. Abnormal levels can indicate liver or kidney disorders.
- A/G Ratio: Calculates the ratio of albumin to globulin in the blood. An abnormal ratio can suggest liver or kidney problems.
Optional Test Include:
- Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): Estimates the glomerular filtration rate using serum creatinine levels along with demographic factors. It indicates how well the kidneys are filtering waste.
What Conditions Can be Diagnosed with the Kidney Function/Renal Function Test?
Some of the most common conditions that can be detected or assessed using the kidney profile test include:
- Acute Kidney Injury (AKI): Sudden decrease in kidney function, typically caused by illness, injury, or certain medications.
- Glomerulonephritis: Inflammation of the kidney's filtering units (glomeruli), which can lead to kidney damage and failure.
- Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD): Progressive loss of kidney function over time, often due to diabetes or high blood pressure.
- Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD): An inherited disorder that causes fluid-filled cysts to develop in the kidneys, leading to enlargement and damage.
- Kidney Stones: Hard deposits of minerals and salts that can form inside the kidneys, causing pain and obstruction.
Kidney Function/Renal Function Test Requirements
To undergo a kidney profile test in Mumbai, you will need to provide a blood sample. The sample collection process is simple and typically involves the following steps:
- Fasting: You may be asked to fast for 8-12 hours before the test to ensure accurate results.
- Blood Sample Collection: A trained phlebotomist will clean the area on your arm and insert a needle to draw a small amount of blood into a tube. The process is simple and quick with minimal pain. The collected blood sample will be labelled and sent to a laboratory for analysis.
It is important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications you are taking, as some may affect the test results.
Reports of the Kidney Function/Renal Function Test
The following table shows the typical components of a renal function test report, along with their normal ranges:
Test | Normal Range |
Creatinine- Serum | 0.66-1.25 mg/dL |
Urea | 19-43 mg/dL |
Blood Urea Nitrogen | 8-23 mg/dL |
Uric Acid - Serum | 3.5-8.5 mg/dL |
Calcium, Serum | 8.5-10.2 mg/dL |
Phosphorus, Inorganic - Serum | 2.5-4.5 mg/dL |
Sodium - Serum | 135-145 mEq/L |
Potassium - Serum / Plasma | 3.5-5.1 mEq/L |
Chloride - Serum | 98-107 mEq/L |
Protein, Total - Serum | 6.0-8.3 g/dL |
Albumin - Serum | 3.5-5.0 g/dL |
Globulin | 2.0-3.5 g/dL |
A/G Ratio | 1-2 |
eGFR* | >60 mL/min/1.73m² |
Note: The values of these tests can vary depending on the laboratory, age, sex, and underlying conditions.
Lifestyle Changes to Reach a Normal Range on the Kidney Function/Renal Function Test
If your kidney profile test results are outside the normal range, your healthcare provider may recommend certain lifestyle changes to help improve your kidney health. These may include:
- Maintaining a healthy diet low in sodium, phosphorus, and protein.
- Hydrating by drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day.
- Exercising regularly to maintain a healthy weight and blood pressure.
- Quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption.
- Managing underlying conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
- Taking medications as prescribed by your doctor.

When Should I Get a Kidney Function Test Done?
You should consider getting a Kidney Function Test if you experience symptoms like persistent fatigue, swelling in your legs or ankles, changes in urination, high blood pressure, or unexplained back pain. Consult your doctor for guidance and recommendations.
Can a Renal Function Test detect kidney stones?
Although a kidney profile test doesn't directly detect kidney stones, it can reveal kidney function issues related to them. Confirming kidney stones typically requires additional imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scans.
How often should I get a Renal Function Test?
The frequency of kidney function test in Mumbai depends on your individual health status and risk factors. Your doctor will recommend the appropriate testing schedule based on your age, medical history, and any existing kidney-related conditions.
Do I need to fast before a Renal Function Test?
Yes, you may be asked to fast for 8-12 hours before your renal function test. This ensures that the test results are not affected by any recent food or drink intake. Your healthcare provider will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for the test.
