Quick answer
The Uric Acid Test measures the level of uric acid in the blood. Uric acid is a waste product formed when the body breaks down purines, which come from certain foods and from normal cell turnover. High levels can be associated with gout, kidney problems, and other conditions. A qualified healthcare provider interprets the result with symptoms and other testing.
What this test measures
Uric acid is produced when purines are broken down and is normally filtered out by the kidneys. When production rises or the kidneys clear it less efficiently, the level in the blood can increase. Crystals of uric acid can form in joints and tissues, which is the process behind a gout attack.
The test requires a blood sample from a vein. Sometimes uric acid is also measured in a twenty-four-hour urine collection to see how much the kidneys are excreting. Results are compared with the laboratory reference range and are interpreted with kidney function tests, joint symptoms, and any medications that affect uric acid.
Clinicians order uric acid testing to investigate sudden joint pain, to evaluate a known gout diagnosis, and to monitor conditions or treatments that influence uric acid levels. A single result does not diagnose gout, and levels can fluctuate during an attack. A qualified healthcare provider explains what the value means for an individual.
