Building a healthier future, together.
Normal values for proteinuria vary from population to population.
Proteinuria refers to protein found in urine. Under normal circumstances, human urine contains no protein or only trace protein. If it is a child, the normal value should be 100 mg/24h, healthy adults should not exceed 150 mg/24h; while the value of adolescents may be slightly higher, with an upper limit of 300 mg/24h. If the examination shows that the value of proteinuria is significantly higher than the normal value, and the continuous increase is mostly caused by diseases, such as acute glomerulonephritis, membranous nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, acute renal tubular necrosis, hemolytic anemia, etc. It is
recommended to pay attention to observation. If the proteinuria level is increased, further examination is required, and active treatment is accepted after diagnosis.
