Description:

The Urine for Hemoglobinuria test detects the presence of hemoglobin in the urine, which occurs when red blood cells break down and release hemoglobin directly into the urine. Hemoglobinuria is different from hematuria (whole blood in the urine) and often indicates conditions like hemolysis (breakdown of red blood cells), severe infections, kidney damage, or other systemic issues.
