An essential part of health heart diagnostics (HHD) is the Microalbumin (24-Hour Urinary) test, especially when assessing kidney function and how it affects cardiovascular health. This test quantifies the trace amount of protein called albumin that is eliminated in the urine over the course of a day. Particularly when combined with diabetes and hypertension, two major risk factors for cardiovascular disease, albuminuria—the presence of albumin in the urine—is an early signal of kidney impairment.
Healthcare professionals can identify the early stages of kidney disease before more serious symptoms appear by keeping an eye on microalbumin levels. This is especially crucial since renal disease can result in abnormalities of fluid and salt balance, elevated blood pressure, and eventually an increased risk of
