ALBUMIN, FLUID (BI005)

Description

The Albumin, Fluid test is a specialized clinical biochemistry investigation used to measure albumin levels in body fluids such as ascitic fluid, pleural fluid, peritoneal fluid, and pericardial fluid. Albumin is a vital protein produced by the liver that helps maintain fluid balance and transport essential substances throughout the body. Measuring albumin concentration in body fluids assists healthcare providers in determining the underlying cause of abnormal fluid accumulation, including liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension, heart failure, kidney disease, infections, tuberculosis, and malignancies. The test is particularly useful in calculating the Serum-Ascites Albumin Gradient (SAAG), an important diagnostic tool for evaluating ascites. By providing valuable information about fluid characteristics and disease processes, the Fluid Albumin test supports accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management.
