URINALYSIS
Definition: A urinalysis is an array of tests performed on urine and one of the most
common methods of medical diagnosis. A part of a urinalysis can be performed by
using urine dipsticks, in which the test results can be read as color changes.
Interpretation: the urinalysis results are normal. Normal urine may vary in color from
almost colorless to dark yellow. Usually, glucose, ketones, protein, and bilirubin are
not detectable in urine. The following are not normally found in urine Hemoglobin,
Nitrites, Red blood cells, White blood cells.
Nursing Consideration: Special diets can change test results. For example, a diet low
in carbohydrates and high in protein and fat can raise ketone levels in the blood
which can then enter the urine.

ULTRASOUND
Definition: Ultrasound is cyclic sound pressure with a frequency greater than the
upper limit of human hearing. Although this limit varies from person to person, it is
approximately 20 kilohertz (20,000 hertz) in healthy, young adults and thus, 20 kHz
serves as a useful lower limit in describing ultrasound.
Definition: Creatinine blood test is used along with a BUN (blood urea nitrogen) test
to assess kidney function. Both are frequently ordered as part of a basic or
comprehensive metabolic panel (BMP or CMP), groups of tests that are performed to
evaluate the function of the body’s major organs.
Nursing Consideration: Avoid Drugs that can interfere with creatinine clearance
measurements include: cimetidine, trimethoprim, and nephrotoxic drugs, such as
cephalosporins (e.g., cefoxitin). Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to
another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from
some people may be more difficult than from others.
