There are many methods in diagnosing Chronic Kidney Disease.
1. Urine test. It is the easiest method to check up the disease in urinary Immunotherapy. The test includes examines of urine protein, glucose, erythrocyte and leukocyte.
2. Urine erythrocyte form test. If urine poikilocyte is more than 80% of all, it may be the damage of glomerulus.
3. Serum creatinine concentration test. The normal value of serum creatinine concentration is 43—133 umol/l. If your serum creatinine is higher(High Creatinine Levels), you should pay attention to it.
4. Creatine clearance rate test. The normal value for adults is 80—120ml/min, and for the new-born babies is 40—65ml/min. If your creatine clearance rate is lower than 80% of the normal value, it means that your glomerular filtration rate decresed.
5. 24h urine protein ration test. The normal value is less than 0.2g/24h. If glomerulus or kidney tubules are damaged, it would increase. This test is more accurate than normal protein test.
7. Urine osmotic pressure test. The decrease of osmotic pressure means that concentrating ability of kidney tubules has slowed down.
8. Type-B supersonic inspection. Sizes of kidneys, forms of kidneys, tumours, cysts, hydronephrosis, congenital malformation and some others can shown in this test.
There are also some other methods in diagnosing Chronic Kidney Disease like intraveneous pyelography, kidney CT and MRI and so on. If you have got Chronic Kidney Disease, you must be diagnosed carefully and then take effective treatment.
