Uric Acid Report Format — Sample & Free Download
A Uric Acid test measures the level of uric acid in the blood, a waste product from the breakdown of purines found in certain foods and body cells. It's used mainly to assess gout risk and kidney stone risk.
This is a real report generated by Dr.Lably LIS — not a mockup.
When is it ordered?
- Investigating joint pain, swelling, or suspected gout
- Monitoring patients with a history of gout or kidney stones
- Follow-up during chemotherapy, which can raise uric acid levels
- Routine screening as part of a broader metabolic panel
Test details
- Specimen type
- Serum
- Turnaround time
- Same day (3 hours)
Uric Acid report format breakdown
| Parameter | Unit | Normal range | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uric Acid | mg/dL | 3.5 - 7.2 | High levels raise the risk of gout and uric acid kidney stones; low levels are less commonly significant but can occur with certain medications or conditions. |
Frequently asked questions
What does a Uric Acid report format show?
The report lists a single Uric Acid result with unit, reference range, testing method, and status, plus a clinical notes section — as shown in the sample report above.
Do I need to fast before a Uric Acid test?
Typically no, though some labs prefer a short fast if it's combined with other tests — check with your lab.
What does high uric acid mean?
Elevated uric acid raises the risk of gout (painful joint inflammation) and kidney stones, though many people with high uric acid never develop symptoms — a doctor should interpret the result in context.
How is Uric Acid different from the uric acid value on a KFT panel?
They measure the same substance, but a standalone Uric Acid test is often ordered specifically for gout evaluation, while the KFT panel includes it as part of a broader kidney function check.
