The global kidney function tests market size was valued at USD 1.12 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 1.77 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.87% from 2026 to 2033. Several factors are anticipated to drive market growth, including increased investments by industry players, growing research and development efforts, a high prevalence of renal diseases, government initiatives, and advancements in technology.
For instance, in February 2024, Simple HealthKit launched a new renal evaluation test for diabetes. The test is available for clinics and at home settings. Such developments are likely to propel the growth of kidney function tests industry.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the incidence of renal injury increased significantly. Research highlighted that the individuals with pre-existing renal conditions faced a higher risk of severe complications and poorer outcomes upon contracting COVID-19. Ongoing studies on the long-term effects of COVID-19 have also revealed its potential lasting impact on renal health. However, the pandemic disrupted healthcare services for renal disease patients, as lockdowns and social distancing mandates led to temporary closures of non-emergency medical services. This resulted in delays in diagnosing renal diseases due to the suspension of routine visits and diagnostic tests during peak pandemic phases.
The rising prevalence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and its progression to CKD is expected to propel the kidney function tests industry in the forecast period. CKD refers to persistent structural and functional abnormalities in the kidneys lasting at least three months. Conditions such as lifestyle-related diseases and kidney injuries are major contributors to CKD, which remains a global health burden and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), renal disease has risen to become one of the top 10 leading causes of death globally over the past decade. Additionally, the National Kidney Foundation reports that approximately 37 million people in the U.S., or over one in seven adults, are affected by some form of renal disease.
