Aldosterone Test and its Function
The Aldosterone Blood Test measures the level of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, to help diagnose conditions such as high blood pressure, adrenal gland disorders, or electrolyte imbalances.
Conditions that may require Aldosterone Test
The Aldosterone Blood Test is a diagnostic tool used to measure the amount of aldosterone in the blood. Aldosterone is a hormone secreted by the adrenal glands that plays a key role in regulating blood pressure and maintaining the balance of sodium and potassium in the body. This test is often performed to evaluate unexplained high blood pressure, particularly if it is difficult to control or occurs at a young age. It can also help diagnose disorders such as primary aldosteronism (Conn�s syndrome), adrenal gland hyperplasia, or adrenal tumors. In some cases, it may be used to investigate electrolyte imbalances that could lead to symptoms like muscle weakness, fatigue, or irregular heartbeat. Results from this test aid healthcare providers in determining the appropriate course of treatment or further investigation.
Aldosterone Test Procedure
The Aldosterone Test is a simple blood test that can be performed in a laboratory. Before the test, the patient may be asked to avoid certain medications that may affect the results. During the test, our healthcare professional will use a needle to draw blood from a vein in the patient’s arm. The blood sample will then be sent to our laboratory for analysis.
