Microalbuminuria can be diagnosed from a 24-hour urine collection (between 30â300 mg/24 hours) or, more commonly, from elevated concentration in a spot sample (20 to 200 mg/L). Both must be measured on at least two of three measurements over a two- to three-month period.
Microalbuminuria occurs when trace amounts of a protein called albumin begin to leak through the damaged filtering structures of the kidneys. The presence of microalbumin in the urine is often an early warning of kidney disease, but can also be present for other reasons. Normal values on this test are less than 15 to 30 mg/l. The important microalbumin test should be done at least yearly in those who have had diabetes for five years or longer.
