CertifiedLabsWhat is Protein Total, 24 hours Urine Test?
This test measures the total amount of protein your body loses in urine over a 24 hour period. Healthy kidneys keep most protein in the blood, so a high amount in urine can signal kidney damage. The 24 hour urine total protein test collects urine for one full day to measure how much protein the kidneys are leaking. It gives a complete picture of protein loss over time.
