Know Your Kidney Numbers

Understand your kidney function, urine albumin, and blood pressure—together, not in isolation.

1. Enter your most recent results

Use values from your laboratory report. Leave optional fields blank if you don't have them.

Urine ACR must be in mg/g. If your lab reports mg/mmol, convert the value before entering it (mg/mmol × 8.84 ≈ mg/g).

2. Compare with an earlier test (optional)

Your Kidney Health Summary

KDIGO GFR–Albuminuria Risk Grid

Important: These categories describe laboratory findings and population-level risk—not a diagnosis or an individual prediction. CKD generally requires abnormalities lasting at least three months or other evidence of chronic kidney damage. Acute illness, hydration, medications, muscle mass, and other factors can affect results.

Looking Beyond the Numbers

Questions for your kidney care team

    An integrative kidney assessment may also consider nutrition, lifestyle, inherited risk, environmental exposures, gut health, and medication or supplement effects, according to your circumstances and the available evidence.

    What these measurements mean

    eGFR: An estimate of how efficiently your kidneys filter blood. A trend over time is often more informative than one result.

    Urine ACR: Measures albumin leaking into urine. Elevated levels can be a sign of kidney damage even when eGFR is preserved.

    Blood pressure: High blood pressure can both contribute to and result from kidney disease. Targets depend on your health and how blood pressure is measured.

    Educational tool based on KDIGO GFR (G1–G5) and albuminuria (A1–A3) categories. The combined risk classification applies to people with CKD and reflects relative risk of adverse outcomes; it is not a personal kidney-failure probability. For clinical decisions, consult your healthcare professional.
