Microalbumin test. Overview. A urine microalbumin test is a test to detect very small levels of a blood protein (albumin) in your urine. A microalbumin test is used to detect early signs of kidney damage in people who are at risk of developing kidney disease. Healthy kidneys filter waste from your blood and hang on to the healthy components, including proteins such as albumin.
High levels of microalbumin in urine may indicate kidney disease, but it may also be caused by medications, urinary tract infection and fever, according to Mayo Clinic. High levels of creatinine in a urine clearance test may indicate kidney disease, pregnancy, hypothyroidism or carbon monoxide poisoning, according to WebMD. Keep Learning.
