Urinary red cell morphology to detect site of hematuria.
We studied the urinary RBC morphology in 87 consecutive cases of significant hematuria by 3 commonly used methods: (a) light microscopy of the unstained urinary sediment; (b) phase contrast microscopy of the unstained urinary sediment; and (c) Wright's staining of the urinary sediment, in order to compare the sensitivity of these methods in detecting dysmorphic RBCs and thus predicting the site...
متن کاملInterpretation of Urine Electrolytes and Osmolality
A. S. Reddi, Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-Base Disorders, DOI 10.1007/978-1-4614-9083-8_2, © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014 Measurement of urine Na + , Cl − , and K + is rather common in hospitalized patients, and these urine electrolytes are useful in the diagnostic evaluation of volume status, hyponatremia , acute kidney injury (AKI) , metabolic alkalosis, hypokalemia and urine ...
متن کاملDDAVP and urine osmolality in refractory enuresis.
A double blind crossover trial of 20 micrograms intranasal 1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) versus placebo was carried out in 17 children with intractable enuresis aged between 6 and 13 years who had failed to respond to drugs and an enuresis alarm. Fluid intake was not restricted. There was a significant reduction in the number of wet nights. Seven children (41%) were cured or showed...
متن کاملCommunity study of urinary pH and osmolality.
In a previous communication (Asscher, Sussman, Waters, Davis, and Chick, 1966), it was shown that urine obtained from females supports the growth of E. coli, the commonest urinary pathogen, better than that from males. This difference was dependent on a sex difference in urinary pH and osmolality, the urines of females being significantly more often at suitable pH and osmolality for the growth ...
متن کاملIs urinary density an adequate predictor of urinary osmolality?
BACKGROUND Urinary density (UD) has been routinely used for decades as a surrogate marker for urine osmolality (Uosm). We asked if UD can accurately estimate Uosm both in healthy subjects and in different clinical scenarios of kidney disease. METHODS UD was assessed by refractometry. Uosm was measured by freezing point depression in spot urines obtained from healthy volunteers (N = 97) and in...
