Urine Dipstick Analysis
All samples should be midstream and collected in a clean sterile container. Suprapubic aspiration or fresh catheter samples are ideal, but not always practical. The gold standard method of testing is to remove a small volume of urine from the sterile container with a fresh sterile syringe, and then apply the removed urine to the dipstick. In this way, the remainder of the collected sample conte...
متن کاملDipstick analysis for screening of paediatric urine.
The examination of. urine specimens constitutes a major portion of the work of a clinical microbiology laboratory. Although the prevalence of urinary tract infection varies for different patient populations, most urine specimens are culture negative. In this laboratory only 12% of paediatric urines show evidence of urinary tract infection. The availability of a rapid reliable screening test for...
متن کاملDipstick measurements of urine specific gravity
Aim—To evaluate the reliability of dipstick measurements of urine specific gravity (U-SG). Methods—Fresh urine specimens were tested for urine pH and osmolality (U-pH, U-Osm) by a pH meter and an osmometer, and for U-SG by three diVerent methods (refractometry, automatic readout of a dipstick (Clinitek-50), and (visual) change of colour of the dipstick). Results—The correlations between the vis...
متن کاملDiagnostic accuracy of urine dipstick for proteinuria in older outpatients
BACKGROUND The urine dipstick is widely used as an initial screening tool for the evaluation of proteinuria; however, its diagnostic accuracy has not yet been sufficiently evaluated. Therefore, we evaluated its diagnostic accuracy using spot urine albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) and total protein/creatinine ratio (PCR) in proteinuria. METHODS Using PCR ≥0.2 g/g or ≥0.5 g/g and ACR ≥300 mg/g or...
متن کاملEvaluation of a dipstick test for glucose in urine.
As an example of qualitative tests, a dipstick analysis for glucose in urine has been tested for the influence of modifying factors on the test result. Two different types of dipsticks were examined, "Clinistix" and "S-Gluko-test." Used according to manufacturer's instructions, the latter is more sensitive and selective. By multivariance analysis the following variables were examined: urine sam...
