What We Test
Kidneys
Kidney-function markers that matter for metabolic and cardiovascular health.
Prelaunch — early-access waitlist open
The health areaWhy kidney health matters
The kidneys filter waste and help regulate blood pressure and fluid balance. Kidney-function markers matter for metabolic and cardiovascular health.
Early kidney changes often cause no symptoms, making monitoring valuable where a clinician considers it appropriate.
The gapWhat routine testing may not cover
Kidney function can decline silently, particularly alongside diabetes or high blood pressure.
Kidney markers are interpreted alongside blood pressure, glucose and your broader health.
Educational examplesRepresentative markers, explained
These are representative examples of the kinds of markers a clinician may consider in this health area. They are educational illustrations — not a confirmed catalogue, and not labelled as included, available or part of any package. Until Saathya's diagnostic catalogue is confirmed, exact tests and inclusions will be published once finalised.
Creatinine
A waste product used to estimate how well your kidneys are filtering.
- May help assess:
- Helps a clinician assess kidney function over time.
- Cannot alone:
- It is interpreted with age, sex, muscle mass and other factors.
eGFR
An estimate of kidney-filtering capacity derived from creatinine.
- May help assess:
- Gives a clearer picture of kidney function than creatinine alone.
- Cannot alone:
- It is an estimate and is interpreted in clinical context.
Urine protein
Protein in the urine, which can signal kidney strain.
- May help assess:
- Can flag early kidney changes, especially with diabetes or high blood pressure.
- Cannot alone:
- A single result is interpreted alongside other kidney markers.
Any result is interpreted by a qualified professional in the context of your symptoms, history and other findings — never in isolation.
