Extended Kidney Health

Your kidneys work hard every day – filtering waste, balancing fluids, and supporting overall health.

Our extended kidney health test checks important markers of kidney function, helping to spot any early signs of poor filtration, with additional Cystatin C and Uric Acid health markers.

  • Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
  • Creatinine
  • Calcium (Adjusted)
  • Electrolytes
  • Urea

    A way of measuring the calcium in our blood more accurately by taking your albumin level into account of how much usable calcium is in your blood.

  • Chloride

    A type of salt in the body that works with other minerals to keep things balanced.

  • Creatinine

    A waste product left over from the breakdown of creatine, creatine is used to supply energy mainly to the muscles.

  • Cystatin-C

    A protein produced by all cells and filtered out by the kidneys, Cystatin C levels in your blood can be used to assess kidney function.

  • Magnesium

    A mineral in the body that is needed hundreds of processes to keep the body healthy.

  • Phosphate

    A mineral that helps build strong bones and teeth, produce energy, and repair cells and tissues.

  • Potassium

    A mineral that helps your heart, muscle and nerves function properly.

  • Sodium

    A mineral needed by the body to keep body fluids in homeostasis (balance).

  • Urea

    A waste product formed by the breakdown of amino acids from protein in the liver.

  • Uric Acid

    A waste product left over from normal chemical processes in the body and found in the urine and blood.

  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)

    eGFR (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) is a calculated measure of how efficiently your kidneys are filtering waste from your blood, helping to assess overall kidney function and detect early signs of kidney impairment.
