Urinary Epidemiology Lab Report

This method was devised to test whether such liquid as the only supply fluid cause physical disturbance or death within 6 to 12 days. They were so desperate for water they waited for the freshly mopped floors to get water by licking them.

The Congo red solution is used to mimic blood and the yellow food color mimics the excretory product of the kidney. When a mixture of Congo red, yellow food color and water were mixed and taken in a dialysis bag, the yellow food color diffuses out into the surrounding water in which the dialysis bag is suspended. At the end of the experiment, the contents in the dialysis bag represent the blood; the contents of the beaker represent the urine formed. The beaker has a slight yellow tinge that results from the yellow food color.

The serum creatine levels, the BUN, the urinary potassium, the serum pH and sodium clacium are high.

Author repeated the same experiment with another person, but the juice was poured by the author in SW and TS is of same volume. It is noticed that people have the tendency to choose SW more likely than TS.

Perform a urinalysis when possible to find levels of Specific Gravity (how concentrated the urine is), pH, Protein, Blood, Nitrites, Leukocytes, Ketones, Glucose and Bilirubin. The results of this test can help identify any possible impairment in renal function and identify the presence of an infection (Vera, 2011).

The purpose of this paper is to present an abbreviated critical appraisal of the article titled, Two-Step Process for ED (Emergency Department) UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) Screening in Febrile Young Children: Reducing Catheterization Rates (Lavelle et al., 2016). This abbreviated appraisal addresses the following items: purpose/objective, problem/background, primary independent and dependent variables, literature review, procedures/methods, statistical tests and credibility, results/findings, conclusions,

Each of the 5 samples examined during the lab were able to be diagnosed with certain diseases pertaining to the symptoms they were found to display during the urinalysis.

The experiment is as follows: Drinkers were to consume their typical amount of the alcohol each day. Each Drinker’s beverage-specific intake was then summed up to give the average grams of alcohol per day. Alcohol consumption was categorized within 6 sets: Non-drinkers, 0.1-9.9, 10.0-14.9, 15.0-29.9,30.0-49.9 and > or equal 50.0, based on the entire quantity (grams/day) of alcohol ingested. The subject’s age, BMI, and glycaemia were collected. Next blood pressure information was amassed. Results of cognitive testing were gathered. (p. 812) Collectively all information was compiled on a master chart that can be viewed on Table 1. (p.

Purpose: This lab will examine the difference between the different samples of urine that have either too much glucose or a strong acidic (pH) level, to determine the five types of disorders that each sample of urine might have.

The is considered the “gold standard” for obtaining objective information about the person’s voiding patterns and UI episodes and their severity(Dwelling Catronova &Bradway, 2008). The voiding dairy can be used by both community dwelling and institutionalized elders. Older adult in the community can usually keep a bladder dairy without much difficulty. Bladder dairies for those in long term care usually maintained by the staff. The character of the urine (color, odor, sediment, or clear) and difficulty starting or stopping the urinary stream should be recorded. Activities of daily living (ADLs) such as ability to reach to toilet and use it and finger dexterity for clothing manipulation should be documented (Lucas, Bosch, Burkhard, et al, 2102).

The independent variables being the participants, and the dependent variable being the energy drinks and soda. The students whom had consumed both beverages ranged from sixty to seventy. Now made evident that although there was a difference there were occasionally inverse results as well. All while those students whom had not consumed either beverage showed a wider range in radial pulse from fifty to eighty. Having this new information the defaults in the experiment are made quite clear there are gaps that needed to be filled in order to get a much more accurate information. The controls pose an inconstancy in the amount, constantly fluctuating leading researchers to believe that further detail is required in order to carry out that hypothesis. One important variable would be how much consumption is being taken in then leading to per how many days. Initially when one consumes either beverage there the elements contained inside are installed to have and increased effect on the heart rate and blood pressure SO2 was shown to have a major impact on the outcomes of those whom had taken the soda specifically (Institute, 2007). This clearly target just one of the effects that cause the rise in blood pressure and heart rate. Another very important factor needed to be taken into consideration would be the age, concentration of the consumed

In this analysis the type of urine specimen used is random urine which is collected any time for routine analysis. A routine voided urine specimen requires no patient preparation and is collected by having the patient urinate into an appropriate container. Normally the patient requires no assistance other than clear instructions. For other collection procedures, the patient may require assistance depending on the patient’s age and physical condition or the technique to be used for collection. Routine urinalysis protocols typically require 10 to 15 mL of urine, but collection of a larger volume is encouraged to ensure sufficient urine for additional or repeat testing. (Bishop Michael L., 2010)

This is a very common method used in flushing out metabolites in your system. It is also the cheapest and easiest method to help you pass the test. You will end up urinating more, therefore, reducing the concentration of the metabolites from your system.

Throughout many individuals lives, the general source of liquid consumption other than the main form of hydration which is water, comes in many different styles. In laboratories, chemists continue to create forms of liquid which can be consumed by humans either for pleasure or the sole purpose of hydration. These chemists take it upon themselves to find different ingredients to add to the base element of H20 to add an additional effect on the consumer; which can affect them in negative ways. Of these chemical creations, one of the most prevalent in our society is soda; also known to some as pop.

This cross sectional study was conducted over a ۵-year period. All data available on all urine samples of hospitalized patients that was submitted to the ****laboratory for urine culture
