. The Urinalysis Test is a routine examination of urine used to evaluate a wide range of conditions, including urinary tract infections, kidney disorders, diabetes, and more.
. This test is a valuable tool for assessing overall health, detecting abnormalities, and guiding treatment decisions. It examines various aspects of urine, such as appearance, concentration, and composition.
. Specific components analyzed during the test include proteins, glucose, ketones, hemoglobin, bilirubin, urobilinogen, and markers of infection. Additionally, the test measures pH levels and urine concentration (specific gravity), providing insights into hydration status and kidney function.
. The Urine Sediment Test is a diagnostic procedure used to examine the solid particles (sediment) found in urine, which can provide valuable insights into kidney function and urinary tract health.
. This test is often performed to identify the presence of abnormal cells, crystals, bacteria, casts, or other substances that may indicate conditions such as urinary tract infections, kidney disease, or bladder disorders.
. By analyzing the sediment, healthcare providers can detect abnormalities that are not visible in routine urine chemistry tests, helping guide further diagnosis and treatment.
