Spot Urine for Electrolytes (Na + K + Cl)
Also Known As:
Urine for Na

Chloride
About This Test
The Spot Urine Electrolytes Test measures the concentration of sodium (Na⁺), potassium (K⁺), and chloride (Cl⁻) in a single random urine sample.
These electrolytes play crucial roles in:
1. Maintaining fluid and acid–base balance
2. Supporting nerve and muscle function
3. Regulating renal and endocrine activity
This test helps evaluate kidney function, hydration status, and the cause of electrolyte imbalances seen in blood (hyponatremia, hypokalemia, metabolic acidosis, etc.).
Test Parameters (3)
- SPOT URINE FOR CHLORIDE
- SPOT URINE FOR POTASSIUM
- SPOT URINE FOR SODIUM

TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
