Description
A 24-hour urine microprotein test measures the amount of protein, specifically albumin, in your urine over a 24-hour period. This test is often used to detect early kidney damage, especially in individuals with diabetes or high blood pressure. Abnormal results, indicating increased protein in the urine (proteinuria), can suggest kidney problems or other underlying medical conditions.
Generally, a normal 24-hour urine protein level is less than 150 mg, according to WebMD.
