Urine Albumin-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) Calculator
This calculator helps assess kidney function by calculating the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). It’s a standard test for detecting early kidney damage, especially in individuals with diabetes or hypertension.
Urinary ACR Estimator for Kidney Health
UACR Calculation Formula
Where:
- $$UA$$ = Urine Albumin concentration (mg/dL)
- $$UC$$ = Urine Creatinine concentration (g/dL or mg/dL depending on unit matching)
- $$UACR$$ is usually expressed in mg/g or mg/mmol
The Urine Albumin to Creatinine Ratio (UACR) is a vital indicator of kidney health. It allows clinicians to estimate how much albumin is being lost in the urine relative to creatinine concentration, helping to detect microalbuminuria or more severe proteinuria. Early detection is especially important for patients with diabetes, hypertension, or chronic kidney disease. A UACR value above 30 mg/g typically indicates abnormal protein excretion.

What do these numbers mean for me? Are there signs of protein in my urine?
Excellent to grade. Ckd
Would like to have more details like its clinical significance & diagnosis & its usefulness
Awesome online calculator
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN NOT SURE
Thank you. A practical and useful online health calculator.
