Q

reference range: urine density

A

1.018 +/- 0.003

17
Q

T/F:

glucose and protein may lead to erroneous urine density

18
Q

10 g/L of protein raises density by ______.

19
Q

10 g/L of glucose raises density by _______.

20
Q

Urine density is used to assess ________.

A

hydration status

urine concentration

21
Q

what hormone is lacking in diabetes insipidus

A

antidiuretic hormone (adh)

22
Q

in diabetes insipidus, the excretion of adh is (lacking/in excess).

23
Q

amount of urine a patient with diabetes insipidus excretes

A

5L/10L in 24 hrs

24
Q

ph urine determines the kidneys’ ability to _____ the urine

25
reference range: urine pH
5.5-6.5
26
stored urine tend to have (inc./dec.) pH
increased due to loss of CO2 and bacterial metabolism
27
what is the use of petroleum jelly in identifying urine pH
prevents loss of CO2, alkalization is delayed
28
plasma glucose value; criteria for diabetes
above 126 mg/dL
29
T/F: | Glucose in urine does not mean a diagnosis in diabetes mellitus
TRUE
30
What condition can cause glucose in urine due to loss of tubular reabsorption but shows normal plasma glucose levels
renal glycosuria
31
can cause false negative glucose results
ascorbic acid | ketones
32
can cause false positive glucose results
peroxide | chlorine
33
how does hydrogen peroxide appear in urine
improper use of vials
34
why is there loss of glucose in pregnancy
growth of abdomen can press the afferent, efferent arteriole and increase hydrostatic pressure
35
presence of glucose in urine due to overload of sugar consumption from food
leaking
36
how does leaking occur
patient passes renal threshold
37
causes of glycosuria
renal impairment pregnancy overload medication
