Creatinine Random Urine

Creatinine Random Urine measures the amount of creatinine excreted in a randomly collected urine sample. Creatinine is a waste product generated from normal muscle metabolism and is filtered by the kidneys. Measuring urine creatinine helps evaluate renal function, assess urine concentration, and is commonly used to normalize other urine analytes (such as protein, albumin, or microalbumin) by calculating ratios like the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR). This test is useful when 24-hour urine collection is impractical and provides quick insight into kidney health when interpreted with blood creatinine and clinical findings.
