Assess your kidney function with this comprehensive health panel. We measure eGFR, creatinine, potassium, and additional biomarkers to evaluate how well your kidneys filter waste and maintain electrolyte balance. Early detection matters—kidney disease often develops without symptoms. This test is especially valuable if you have diabetes, hypertension, or family history of kidney issues. Results guide conversations with your healthcare provider and support proactive management of your renal and cardiovascular health.

What we measure
The biomarkers in this panel.
eGFR
An estimate of how well your kidneys are filtering.
Why it matters
A simple summary score for kidney function.
Calcium
A mineral important for bones, muscles and nerves.
Why it matters
Useful for understanding bone health and overall nutrition.
Chloride
An electrolyte that keeps your body's fluids balanced.
Why it matters
Useful alongside sodium and potassium for hydration and kidney insight.
Magnesium
A mineral involved in energy, sleep and muscle function.
Why it matters
Low levels are linked to fatigue, cramps and poor sleep.
Phosphate
A mineral that works with calcium for bones and energy.
Why it matters
Levels can shift with diet, kidney function or bone activity.
Potassium
An electrolyte your heart and muscles rely on.
Why it matters
Both low and high levels can affect how you feel.
Sodium
Your main fluid-balance electrolyte.
Why it matters
Linked to hydration, blood pressure and kidney health.
Urea
A waste product from breaking down protein.
Why it matters
Another check on kidney filtering and hydration.
Is this panel right for me?
Who this panel is built for.
Who this is for
- Adults wanting to monitor kidney function markers as part of an annual check.
- People with a family history of kidney disease or diabetes who want to track their own data.
- Anyone on long-term medication where periodic monitoring is sensible.
- Those reviewing the impact of hydration, training load or dietary protein on kidney markers.
Consider speaking to a clinician first
- Anyone with reduced urine output, blood in the urine or new flank pain. Contact your GP.
- People already under the care of a renal team.
- Those needing a urine albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) test, which is a different sample type.
- Children under 18.
This panel reports biomarker data. It does not diagnose any condition. Your results should be reviewed alongside the advice of your GP or another qualified healthcare professional.

FAQs
Common questions.
How long do Kidney Health results take?
Kidney Health results are typically delivered within 2 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample. You receive a plain English PDF report with each biomarker, the lab reference range, and a short explanation.
How is the sample collected for the Kidney Health panel?
The Kidney Health panel requires a venous blood draw at a Chxhealth or partner clinic. The phlebotomy fee is included in the price. Choose our Lanchester clinic or one of our 50+ UK partner and pop-up clinics when you book.
Who should consider the Kidney Health panel?
The Kidney Health panel suits anyone with high blood pressure, diabetes or a family history of kidney disease. It is also a sensible baseline before starting any medication that can affect kidney function. Athletes and people with high muscle mass sometimes test kidney markers to put creatinine in context.
Will the test calculate my eGFR?
Yes. eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is automatically calculated from your creatinine result, age and biological sex. It is the standard UK marker of kidney filtration.
Does muscle mass affect kidney markers?
Yes. Creatinine is produced by muscle, so people with high muscle mass typically run a slightly higher creatinine even with completely healthy kidneys. This is why eGFR is interpreted alongside creatinine. Avoid strenuous exercise and creatine supplements for 48 hours before testing for the most accurate reading.
