ALDOSTERONE (URINE, 24 HOUR)

The 24‑hour urinary aldosterone test measures the total amount of aldosterone excreted in urine over a full day to assess adrenal mineralocorticoid activity. By collecting all urine for 24 hours and analysing it in a laboratory (typically by immunoassay or LC‑MS/MS), clinicians obtain an integrated measure of aldosterone production that helps detect disorders of the adrenal cortex affecting blood pressure and potassium balance.

This test is commonly used to screen for and monitor primary aldosteronism (Conn's syndrome), to investigate unexplained or resistant hypertension, and to evaluate persistent hypokalaemia. At‑home 24‑hour collection in Dubai with Touch Connect ensures patient convenience while delivering lab‑grade results; any medication adjustments or interpretation should be coordinated with your treating physician or specialist.
