What is a Protein Test?
A protein test measures the total amount of protein in the blood, including albumin and globulin. It helps assess overall health and diagnose conditions like kidney disease, liver disorders, or malnutrition.
What is Protein Report Format?
The report shows total protein levels, including albumin and globulin levels, and compares them to reference ranges to identify possible abnormalities.
Tests Included in Protein Report
Test | Description |
Total Protein | Measures the total amount of protein in the blood, including albumin and globulins. |
Albumin | Measures the amount of albumin, a protein made by the liver that helps maintain blood volume and pressure. |
Globulin | Measures the total level of globulins, a group of proteins that include antibodies and enzymes. |
Key Parts of a Protein Report
Key Part | Description |
Total Protein | Indicates the overall protein level in the blood. |
Albumin Level | Reflects liver function and nutritional status. |
Globulin Level | Shows immune system function and liver health. |
Normal Range for Protein Report
Test | Normal Range |
Total Protein | 6.0-8.3 g/dL |
Albumin | 3.5-5.0 g/dL |
Globulin | 2.0-3.5 g/dL |
Parameters to Consider in Protein Report
Parameter | Interpretation |
Total Protein | Low levels may indicate malnutrition or kidney disease; high levels may suggest dehydration or chronic inflammation. |
Albumin | Low levels can indicate liver disease, kidney disease, or malnutrition. |
Globulin | Elevated globulin levels may indicate chronic inflammation, liver disease, or certain cancers. |
Guidelines for Protein Report Format
Guideline | Description |
Test Results | Present total protein, albumin, and globulin levels with corresponding reference ranges. |
Interpretation | Provide context to explain whether the results indicate any underlying health conditions. |
What Do the Results Mean?
Result Type | Interpretation |
Low Protein Levels | May indicate kidney disease, malnutrition, or liver dysfunction. |
High Protein Levels | Could suggest dehydration, chronic inflammation, or certain cancers. |
Protein Report Interpretation
Test | Interpretation |
Total Protein | Low protein levels could indicate nutritional deficiencies or kidney disease; high levels may signal dehydration or inflammation. |
Albumin | Low albumin levels typically point to liver or kidney disease, while high levels are rare and usually indicate dehydration. |
Globulin | Elevated globulin suggests immune system issues or liver disease, while low levels may indicate immune deficiencies. |
