Medical Tests: Urine tests

Introduction: Urine tests



The urine may contain various substances for different types of disease. For example, sugar in urine may mean diabetes and blood in urine may mean various kidney conditions. Thus, a variety of diseases have urine tests.

There are several types of different urine tests.

  • Fasting urine test
  • Random urine test
  • Mid-stream urine test
  • 24-hour urine test

Infant urine tests: Collecting urine from an infant is more difficult than for older children or adults. However, collection can be done via a strap-on urine collector worn underneath the diaper. Although more convenient than following your toddler around with a jug, this method does cause higher rates of contamination.
