ALB and chronic kidney disease: It is important to conduct a full Kidney Health Check for all patients who are at increased risk of CKD every 1–2 years.2 This includes a blood test to assess estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a urine albumin-creatinine ratio (uACR) to check for albuminuria, and a blood pressure check (Figure 1).2 Unfortunately, the uACR is often missed in Australian general practice, which can lead to missed diagnoses and underestimation of CKD risk.
