Kidney Function Test Market size was valued at USD 812.4 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a significant CAGR of 6.4% over 2024-2030. Kidney function tests are urine or blood tests that evaluate how well your kidneys are working. These tests generally measure the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of the kidney. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can analyze how efficiently kidneys clear waste from the excretion system. Diabetes or high blood pressure (hypertension) can affect the kidneys normal functions. The risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is increasing due to the rising prevalence of diabetes and hypertension. For instance, according to World Health Organization, an estimated 1.28 billion adults aged 30-79 years worldwide have hypertension, most (two-thirds) living in low- and middle-income countries and an estimated 46% of adults with hypertension are unaware that they have the condition. Hence, it will drastically upsurge the demand in the global kidney function tests market. Kidney function tests are simple laboratory tests used for investigating and evaluating the functions of the kidney.

It is a very important test for old aged people who have other diseases which can affect kidney functions. The increasing research and development activities, high prevalence of kidney diseases, and rising government initiatives are expected to boost the kidney function test market growth worldwide. Moreover, investments by key market players such as Abbott Laboratories, Danaher Corporation, F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Quest Diagnostics, etc. are positively influencing the global kidney tests market growth. Moreover, government initiatives and support and several public-private organizations are helping to facilitate kidney disease testing, especially in developing and underdeveloped countries. Geographically, North America held the major kidney function test market share in 2021 and is expected to maintain the trend in the forecasted years.
