This test is intended to detect the presence of Creatinine, Specific gravity and Protein in the urine. These are indicators of the presence of kidney disease.
Kidney infection or pyelonephritis as it is medically known is an infection of one or both kidneys. Kidney infections can develop at any age and are usually more common in women.
Kidney infections develop when bacteria from the bladder travels up the kidneys, this can happen when you have cystitis, although most people who have cystitis will not get a kidney infection.
A kidney infection that develops without a bladder infection can be caused by kidney stones or a blockage in one of the ureters. Occasionally bacteria can reach the kidneys from the bloodstream
It is recommended that you take this test if you are suffering from fluid retention, high blood pressure, blood in the urine, frequent urination, difficulty urinating or a reduced volume of urine during urination, fatigue, lack of appetite, nausea, or soreness in the waist or lower back area, as these are signs of kidney disease.
