PLASMA RENIN LEVELS

Plasma renin levels play a pivotal role in diagnostic assessments conducted by HYPRO Diagnostics, offering valuable insights into the intricate dynamics of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system—a critical regulator of blood pressure and fluid balance. In the blood collection process, typically from a vein in the inner elbow or back of the hand, HYPRO Diagnostics ensures thorough site sterilization using antiseptic measures. Employing an elastic band on the upper arm, vein engorgement is induced, facilitating the precise insertion of a needle for blood extraction. The collected blood is meticulously preserved in an air-tight vial or syringe. For infants or young children, a similar process is applied, involving antiseptic cleansing and blood collection using a sharp needle or lancet. The extracted blood is then deposited into various mediums, such as a pipette, on a slide, onto a test strip, or into a small container. Monitoring plasma renin levels through HYPRO Diagnostics proves integral in diagnosing and managing conditions related to blood pressure and fluid balance, enabling tailored interventions for enhanced patient care.
