Proteinuria Conversion Table
- ACR is preferred and valid for diagnosis and staging and prognostication in CKD.
- ACR can have significant day-to-day variability. We recommend obtaining a first morning void sample if possible.
| ACR (mg/mmol) | Proteinuria (g/24 hrs) |
| ≤ 3.5 | < 0.15 |
| 3.6 – 29 | 0.150 – 0.499 |
| 30 – 69 | 0. 5 – 0.99 |
| 70 -150 | 1.0 – 1.5 |
| 151 – 450 | 1.5 – 4.5 |
| > 450 | > 4.5 |
