Routine Urine Analysis (RUA) examines the content of urine to detect and manage urinary tract disorders, kidney disease, and diabetes. It's a simple yet comprehensive test that provides valuable health insights.
Urine tests can detect early signs of kidney disease, diabetes, urinary tract infections, and other conditions before symptoms appear. They're essential for preventive care and monitoring chronic conditions.
Important for detecting kidney problems, especially in people with diabetes or high blood pressure. Also crucial for identifying urinary tract infections, which are common but can lead to serious complications if untreated.
Collect first-morning urine for best results. Clean the genital area before collection. Use the midstream technique. Follow specific collection instructions provided by the lab.
Results include protein, glucose, blood, bacteria, and other substances. Abnormal findings may indicate infections, kidney problems, diabetes, or other conditions requiring further evaluation.
