KFT and RFT are commonly used names for kidney function testing. The exact tests included in a panel can vary between laboratories.
What Is a Kidney Function Test?
Your kidneys filter waste products and excess substances from the blood and help maintain the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance.
A KFT/RFT panel typically includes tests that help assess kidney function, such as:
- Creatinine
- Blood urea
- Uric acid
- Electrolytes such as sodium and potassium
- Other kidney-related measurements, depending on the laboratory panel
Why Is a KFT Test Important?
Kidney problems may not always cause noticeable symptoms in the early stages. Kidney function testing can therefore be useful when a doctor wants to assess kidney health or monitor an existing condition.
A doctor may recommend a KFT when there is concern about:
- Abnormal kidney function
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes
- Dehydration
- Changes in urination
- Swelling in the legs or feet
- Certain medication effects
- A known kidney condition
Common Tests Included in KFT/RFT
Creatinine
Creatinine is a waste product produced by muscles and removed from the blood by the kidneys. Blood creatinine is commonly used when evaluating kidney function.
Blood Urea
Urea is produced when the body breaks down proteins. The kidneys normally remove urea from the blood through urine.
Uric Acid
Uric acid is produced when the body breaks down purines. Abnormal levels may be associated with several conditions and are sometimes assessed as part of kidney-related testing.
Sodium and Potassium
These electrolytes are important for maintaining fluid balance, nerve function and muscle function. Kidney problems can affect electrolyte levels.
Symptoms That May Lead to Kidney Testing
A doctor may suggest kidney function testing if you experience symptoms such as:
- Swelling around the feet or ankles
- Changes in urination
- Unusual tiredness
- Nausea
- Loss of appetite
- Persistent weakness
- High blood pressure
However, these symptoms can have many causes and do not necessarily indicate kidney disease.
Who Should Consider a KFT/RFT Test?
KFT may be recommended for people who are being evaluated for kidney problems or are at increased risk of kidney disease.
People with conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure may need periodic kidney function monitoring based on their doctor’s advice.
Is Fasting Required for KFT?
Fasting requirements depend on the specific KFT panel and whether other blood tests are being performed at the same time.
Follow the preparation instructions provided by your doctor or diagnostic laboratory. If your KFT is part of a larger health package, other tests may require fasting.
How Is the KFT Test Done?
A small blood sample is usually collected from a vein in the arm. Depending on the specific tests included, urine testing may also be recommended.
The laboratory analyses the sample and provides the results along with the relevant reference ranges.
KFT vs RFT – Are They the Same?
KFT stands for Kidney Function Test, while RFT stands for Renal Function Test.
Both terms are commonly used for testing kidney function. However, the exact tests included in a KFT or RFT panel can differ between laboratories.
