The Electrolytes, Urea & Creatinine (EUC) Blood Test measures salts, minerals, and waste products in your blood to check kidney and metabolic health. Abnormal results may be linked to dehydration, kidney disease, or imbalances affecting your heart, muscles, and overall energy.
Think of your kidneys as your body's master filtration system – they're constantly working behind the scenes to clean your blood, balance your body's fluids, and keep essential minerals like sodium and potassium at just the right levels. The EUC (Electrolytes, Urea, and Creatinine) test gives you a comprehensive snapshot of how well this vital system is performing by measuring waste products your kidneys should be filtering out, along with the key electrolytes they help regulate.
This test is particularly valuable because kidney problems often develop silently, without obvious symptoms until they're quite advanced. If your results show elevated waste products like creatinine or urea, or if your electrolytes are out of balance, it could signal that your kidneys are struggling to keep up with their filtering duties. Since your kidneys also play crucial roles in controlling blood pressure and supporting bone health, catching any issues early through EUC testing can help prevent more serious complications down the road and keep your entire body functioning at its best.

How to prepare
No special preparation required. Inform healthcare provider of all medications, especially those affecting kidney function, and any recent changes in diet or fluid intake.
Understanding results
Results show kidney function markers compared to normal ranges. Abnormal results may indicate kidney dysfunction requiring further evaluation, treatment, or specialist referral.
After the test
Address abnormal kidney function through blood pressure control, diabetes management, medication adjustments, and lifestyle modifications. Work with nephrologists for kidney disease management.
Frequently Asked Questions
It measures electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride), waste products (urea, creatinine), and calculates kidney filtration rate (eGFR).
Abnormal results may indicate kidney disease, dehydration, medication effects, or other conditions affecting kidney function and require further evaluation.
Symptoms may include swelling, changes in urination, fatigue, nausea, high blood pressure, and in advanced cases, shortness of breath.
Common causes include diabetes, high blood pressure, autoimmune diseases, infections, genetic conditions, and certain medications or toxins.
Through blood pressure and diabetes control, staying hydrated, limiting salt intake, avoiding nephrotoxic medications, and regular monitoring.

Having seen the GP regularly, I thought I had everything covered. I had no idea I had Type II diabetes as I was symptomless. Now I can manage it before it gets really bad. I never would have caught it this early if I hadn't used Bloody Good.
