00:00 So let's wrap up this part of the video series. Common signs and symptoms of a urinary tract infection include changes to urination such as pain, burning, frequency, urgency, and fatigue. Remember the symptoms that Mrs. Mayer shared with us. A complete urinalysis includes physical, chemical, and microscopic examination of the urine. A clean-catch or midstream sample, an intermittent catheter, and indwelling catheter sample are all acceptable to be used to provide a urine sample for a urinalysis. Thank you for watching our video today.
The lecture Basics of Urinalysis: In a Nutshell (Nursing) by Rhonda Lawes, PhD, RN is from the course Interpretation of Renal Lab Values (Nursing).
A urinalysis is ordered for a client with an indwelling urinary catheter. What characteristics might the nurse notice upon obtaining the sample that could signify a urinary tract infection (UTI)? Select all that apply.
