The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs that filter approximately 200 litres of blood each day, removing waste products and excess fluid from the body. They also play a role in regulating blood pressure, electrolyte balance, and red blood cell production. Kidney function tests measure markers such as creatinine, urea, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to assess how effectively the kidneys are performing their filtering function. According to Kidney Research UK, approximately 3 million people in the UK are estimated to have chronic kidney disease. Early-stage kidney disease typically produces no symptoms, making blood testing a key method of assessment.
