Abstract

The Importance of Urine Sediment Analysis by Yinjia Lou, Jiehua Han

Background: Urinary sediment is an important part of routine urine test, which plays an irreplaceable role in the diagnosis of diseases, monitoring of treatment effect, and prognosis judgment [1].
Methods: Through the results of urine dry chemistry and microscopic examination of urinary sediment, we inter-preted and analyzed the clinical significance of urinary casts in urinary sediment.
Results: In patients with new urinary system diseases abnormal urine results appear earlier than changes in serum renal function indicators, especially when the urine sediment shows typical casts, which can provide an important basis for clinical diagnosis.
Conclusions: Clinical laboratory personnel should attach great importance to the morphological examination of urinary sediment and master the diagnostic significance of the formed components of urinary sediment for various diseases, so as to better assist clinical disease diagnosis.
