Urinalysis
Urinalysis tests
Introduction
 Urine is formed in the kidneys, is a product of ultra
filtration of plasma by the renal glomeruli.
Urine sample
 Early morning sample-qualitative
 Random sample- routine
 24hrs sample- quantitative
 Midstream sample-UTI
 Post prandial sample-D.M
Urine examination
 Macroscopic examination
 Chemical examination
 Microscopic examination
Color & appearance
 Normal= clear & pale yellow
1. Colourless- dilution, diabetes mellitus, diabetes
insipidus, diuretics
2. Milky-purulent genitourinary tract infection
3. Orange-fever, excessive sweating
4. Red-haematuria
5. Brown/ black- melanin
Urinary volume
 Normal = 600-1550ml/day
 Polyuria- >2000ml
 Oliguria-<400ml
 Anuria-complete cessation of urine(<200ml)
 Nocturia-excretion of urine by a adult of >500ml with
a specific gravity of <1.018 at night (characteristic of
chronic glomerulonephritis)
Causes of polyuria
 Diabetes mellitus
 Diabetes insipidus
 Polycystic kidney
 Chronic renal failure
 Diuretics
 Intravenous saline/glucose
oliguria
 Dehydration-vomiting, diarrhoea, excessive sweating
 Renal ischemia
 Acute tubular necrosis
 Obstruction to the urinary tract
 Acute renal failure
Chemical tests-
1. Protein
Causes of proteinuria
 Prerenal causes-Heavy exercise,Fever,hypertension,
multiple myeloma, ecalmpsia
 Renal acute & chronic glomerulonephritis,Renal
tubular dysfunction,Polycystic kidney, nephrotic
syndrome
 Post renal- acute & chronic cystitis, tuberculosis
cystitis
2. Bilirubin
Test- fouchets test.
 Causes
Liver diseases-injury,hepatitis
Obstruction to biliary tract
3. Urobilinogen
 est- ehrlich test
 Causes-hemolytic anemia's
Bile salts-
Hays test
Cause- obstruction to bile flow (obstructive jaundice)
3. Urobilinogen
 Test- ehrlich test
 Causes-hemolytic anemia's
 Bile salts-
Hays test
Cause- obstruction to bile flow (obstructive jaundice)
4. Blood
RBCs-Causes of hematuria
 Pre renal- bleeding diathesis,
hemoglobinopathies, malignant hypertension.
 Renal- trauma, acute & chronic
glomerulonephritis, renal tumors
 Post renal  severe UTI, calculi, trauma, tumors of
urinary tract
Crystals in urine
Crystals in acidic urine
Uric acid
Calcium oxalate
Cystine
Leucine
Crystals in alkaline urine
Ammonium magnesium
phosphates(triple
phosphate crystals)
Calcium carbonate
Different crystals (indicative of
renal disfunction)
Types of casts
 Acellular casts
Hyaline casts
Granular casts
Waxy casts
Fatty casts
Pigment casts
Crystal casts
 Cellular casts
Red cell casts
White cell casts
Epithelial cell cast
Fatty casts
 Formed by the breakdown of lipid-rich epithelial
cells, these are hyaline casts with fat globule
inclusions
They can be present in various disorders, including
 nephrotic syndrome,
 diabetic or lupus nephropathy,
 Acute tubular necrosis
Red cell casts
 The presence of red blood cells within the cast is
always pathologic, and is strongly indicative of
glomerular damage.
 They are usually associated with nephritic syndromes.
White blood cell casts
 Indicative of inflammation or infection (especially
when there is a pus),
 pyelonephritis
 acute allergic interstitial nephritis,
 nephrotic syndrome, or
 post-streptococcal acute glomerulonephritis
Negative
Trace (100 mg/dL)
+ (250 mg/dL)
++ (500 mg/dL)
+++ (1000 mg/dL)
++++ (2000+ mg/dL)
The Urine Glucose Dipstick:
Significance
 Diabetes mellitus
 Renal glycosuria
Normal concentration: 15 mg/dl
Negative
+ (weak)
++ (moderate)
+++ (strong)
The Urine Bilirubin Dipstick:
Bilirubin : is a break down
of aged RBC or
hemoglobin-result in
yellowish color-it is
excretd in urine and bile
Significance
-jaundice (direct
bilirubin)
 Hepatitis, cirrhosis, other
liver disorders
 Biliary obstruction
Negative
Trace (5 mg/dL)
+ (15 mg/dL)
++ (40 mg/dL)
+++ (80 mg/dL)
++++ (160+ mg/dL)
The Urine Ketones Dipstick:
Ketones: are produced
by the liver as part of
fatty acid
metabolism/when
lack of glucose
occured
Significance
- Diabetic ketoacidosis
- Prolonged fasting
(starvation)
1.000
1.005
1.010
1.015
1.020
1.025
1.030
It measures the concentration of
all chemical particles of urine
Normal-1.016-1.022
Significance
- Diabetes insipidus (a disorder
of the pituitary gland that causes
the body to produce large
amounts of urine).
Urine Specific Gravity
Negative
Moderate
Trace
+ (weak)
++ (moderate)
+++ (strong)
The Urine Blood Dipstick:
Significance
- Hematuria
 Renal problem
 Glomerulonephritis
 Tumors
5.0
6.0
6.5
7.0
7.5
8.0
8.5
The Urine pH Dipstick:
Significance
- Acidic (less than 4.5)
- Alkaline (greater than 8.0):
renal tubular acidosis (>5.5)
 respiratory or metabolic
acidosis/ketosis
respiratory or metabolic
alkalosis
 renal tubular acidosis
 renal calculi /renal
stoneformation
Negative
Trace
+ (30 mg/dL)
++ (100 mg/dL)
+++ (300 mg/dL)
++++ (2000 mg/dL)
The Urine Protein Dipstick:
Significance
- Proteinuria:- indicative
of early kidney damage
 Tubular damage
 Glomerular damage
