Full write-up
What is it
Kidney Basic is a basic checkup panel that brings core kidney-related markers together in one concise overview. It is intended to organize the panel’s measurements as a group, so the results can be considered together rather than viewed as isolated findings.
What's included
Kidney Basic brings together three serum markers in one panel: Creatinine, Estimated GFR, and Blood Urea Nitrogen. Viewed together, they provide a combined kidney-focused picture rather than relying on a single measurement.
Creatinine and Blood Urea Nitrogen are included as measured blood markers, while Estimated GFR is included as an estimate related to kidney assessment. Keeping these markers together makes it possible to consider their results side by side and interpret the overall pattern in context.
How to prepare
Fasting is not required before the Kidney Basic checkup. A serum sample is used for the test.
If you have a medical condition or questions about preparing for the checkup, consult a clinician for guidance.
