    What Is the Sodium, Urine Test?

    A Urine Sodium test evaluates the quantity of sodium in your urine. Sodium is a vital mineral and electrolyte responsible for maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance in the body and supporting muscle and nerve functions. Approximately 85% of sodium in the body is found in the blood and lymph fluid. The adrenal glands secrete aldosterone, a hormone that helps control sodium levels by prompting the kidneys to retain sodium instead of excreting it in urine. Sodium is also lost through perspiration, but only in small amounts.

    An imbalance in the body's sodium-water levels can lead to changes in sodium concentrations in both blood and urine. The Urine Sodium test in Noida helps identify if sodium levels in the urine are excessively high or low, which may suggest that the kidneys are not filtering sodium properly due to underlying health issues. The test is useful for evaluating the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance and offers insights into overall health.

    Sodium, Urine Test Parameters

    The Urine Sodium test measures only one aspect: the sodium level in the urine. To identify possible imbalances due to health issues or medications, it is important to check both blood and urine sodium levels. Typically, low blood sodium corresponds to high urine sodium, and high blood sodium to low urine sodium. Conditions such as heart failure, malnutrition, and diarrhoea may also result in low sodium levels in the urine.
