What is the Urine Routine test?

This test examines urine for its appearance, chemical content (sugar, protein, ketones, blood) and, under the microscope, for pus cells, red cells, crystals and casts.

Why is it done?

  • Burning or frequent urination (suspected urine infection)
  • Diabetes and kidney monitoring
  • Pregnancy check-ups
  • Routine health check

How to prepare

  • Collect the first urine of the morning if possible
  • Wash the area, pass the first part into the toilet, and collect the middle part in the sterile container
  • Women should avoid testing during periods if possible

Understanding your results

Pus cells suggest infection; sugar can appear with high blood sugar; protein may point to kidney involvement; and red cells need follow-up. A urine culture identifies the bacteria if an infection is suspected.
