What is Urine Microalbumin Creatinine ratio
The urine microalbumin creatinine ratio (UMACR) is a test that measures the amount of albumin (a protein) in the urine. The test is performed by collecting a urine sample and measuring the levels of albumin and creatinine in the sample. The UMACR is used to detect early signs of kidney damage in patients with diabetes or high blood pressure. A UMACR value of less than 30 mgg is considered normal.
