What is the liver and kidney profile Test?
The liver and kidney profile test in Shimla (LFT KFT blood test or liver and kidney panel) refers to the combination of functional tests of liver and kidney.

A kidney function test (KFT test) is conducted to know the working of kidneys in an individual.The liver and kidney profile test diagnose 47 parameters in the blood. The main parameters tested in LFT and KFT are:
- Alanine transaminase (ALT) test: ALT is an enzyme used by the body to metabolize protein. An increase in the level of ALT indicates liver damage.
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) test: This enzyme is present in various body organs like the heart, pancreas, brain, muscles, and liver. An increase in the level of AST is related to problems in the liver or muscles.
- Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) test: This enzyme is found in bones, liver, and bile duct. The ALP blood test helps evaluate the bile duct system of the liver.
- Albumin test: It is one of the most important proteins produced by the liver. Thus, it is one of the main parameters that help assess the function of the liver.

If your liver is damaged, it will not be able to process bilirubin, due to which the levels of bilirubin will rise in the blood.
- Albumin: It is a parameter used to assess the functioning of the kidney.

- Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) or Urea: This substance is produced as the end product in protein metabolism and the urea cycle. An increase in the level of urea in the blood signifies kidney impairment.
- Electrolytes: These are the minerals that help carry out various vital functions of the body. It acts as a strong indicator to determine the functioning of the kidney. The main electrolytes in our body are sodium, calcium, and potassium.
