Patris Health – Nierenfunktions-Selbsttest (Albumin)

Patris Health – Kidney Function Self-Test (Albumin)

The Patris Health Kidney Function Self-Test is a certified self-diagnostic test for detecting albumin (microalbumin) in urine.

Albumin should not be present in urine. Albumin in urine or albuminuria is a clinical sign of kidney disease.

The test is at least 88% accurate and has been used in hospitals and laboratories for over 10 years. It is manufactured in France according to ISO13485 and is approved by the European authorities for self-testing.

Even more significant is a very high correlation with positive and negative laboratory results. This test only showed a false-positive result in 1.7% of cases and no false negative results.

The test kit contains:

• a test strip,
• A plastic cup for urine sample removal,
• Detailed instructions (English language not guaranteed) with clear step-by-step instructions.

Important: Intensive physical activity, fever, severe infections or pregnancy can increase the concentration of albumin in urine.

When should you test for albumin in in the urine?

Experts recommend measuring the concentration of albumin in in urine, especially those with an increased risk of developing kidney disease.

Patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, and known hereditary kidney diseases in the family are at the highest risk of developing chronic kidney disease. Smokers and obese people also have a higher risk.

You do it yourself: you perform the analysis yourself at home. People with diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and known hereditary kidney diseases in the family have the highest risk of developing chronic kidney disease. Smokers and obesity people also have a higher risk.
Semi-quantity: allows the assessment of the physiological status of the kidneys by determining the albumin concentration in the urine. The test detects the album concentration of 10 μg/ml (detection limit).
The test takes 7 minutes of your time: 1-2 minutes for analysis and 5 minutes waiting for the result.
Simple, user-friendly test protocol: no special training required. The test kits are designed for non-professionals. Even if you have no experience with self-testing, you can perform the analysis perfectly. Explanatory step-by-step instructions guide you through the test procedure.
Accurate and reliable: the test is clinically validated and has been used worldwide for over 10 years. CERTIFIED BY THE EUROPEAN HOME USE: ISO13485, CE0483, European Directive 98/79/EC on In-vitro diagnostics.
