What is Urine Test (Urinalysis)?

A urine test (urinalysis) is a simple, non-invasive test that provides valuable information about kidney health, urinary tract infections, diabetes, liver disease, and other conditions. A routine urine test includes physical examination (colour, clarity), chemical analysis (pH, protein, glucose, blood), and microscopic examination (cells, bacteria, crystals). It is one of the most commonly ordered tests in healthcare.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an abnormal urine test result?

A urine test is abnormal when any value falls outside the normal chart: protein or sugar present (anything above nil or trace), pus cells above 5 per HPF, red blood cells above 2 per HPF, bacteria present, ketones present, or pH outside 4.6 to 8. One slightly abnormal value is common and often repeated; several abnormal values together, or abnormal values with symptoms like burning, fever or swelling, need a doctor.

What does a normal urine test results chart look like for a male?

The normal urine chart is the same for men and women: pale yellow and clear, pH 4.6 to 8, specific gravity 1.005 to 1.030, protein nil, sugar nil, ketones nil, pus cells 0 to 5 per HPF and RBC 0 to 2 per HPF. In men, pus cells or blood in urine are less common than in women and should always be checked by a doctor.

What does protein in urine mean?

Protein in urine (proteinuria) may indicate kidney damage, especially in people with diabetes or hypertension. Trace protein can be normal after exercise or fever. Persistent protein in urine needs further evaluation with a kidney function test.

What does pus cells in urine mean?

Pus cells (WBC) above 5 per HPF usually indicate a urinary tract infection (UTI). High pus cells with bacteria confirm UTI. Treatment includes antibiotics prescribed by a doctor based on urine culture results.

What does glucose in urine mean?

Glucose in urine usually means blood sugar is above 180 mg/dL, which spills into urine. This is seen in uncontrolled diabetes. If you have glucose in urine, a blood sugar test and HbA1c should be done.

How to collect a urine sample properly?

Use a clean, dry container. For midstream clean-catch: start urinating, then collect the middle portion in the container. This reduces contamination. Morning first sample is best as it is more concentrated.
