Urine analysis reveals health problems

Urine analysis is an important part of medical diagnosis and helps doctors and patients monitor the health of the kidneys, bladder and other organs associated with the urinary system. Laboratory testing of urine provides valuable information about how the body eliminates waste products and can be the key to identifying potential health problems.

What tests do we perform at ATODA Medical private clinic?

  • Urine bacteria test,
  • kidney test,
  • urinary tract inflammation test,
  • bladder inflammation test,
  • uric acid test,
  • and many more.

 

A pregnancy test can also be performed, which allows women to easily find out if conception has occurred. At ATODA Medical, the health of the mother and baby is of paramount importance to us. We provide comprehensive medical care under one roof and thanks to the cooperation of all departments, we can send future mothers to the urogynaecology department at the appropriate time and later, their babies can later be cared for by our paediatricians.

Why is bacteriological and microbiological urine testing so important?

Urine tests and complete blood tests can reveal many different health problems. The most common reasons for performing these tests include:

  • detecting the presence of sugar in the urine, which may be the first signal of diabetes,
  • an oral glucose tolerance test for pregnancy diabetes (OGTT),
  • information on kidney function and identification of potential kidney disease,
  • the presence of bacteria and proteins, which is often associated with bladder infections,
  • the presence of minerals and crystals that can lead to the formation of kidney stones,
  • any chronic diseases.

In addition to bacteriological and microbiological urinalysis, we also offer chemical urinalysis. This type of test is important for diagnosis, allowing identification of various diseases, control of treatment, screening tests and detection of infections or problems related to the urinary system. It also provides information on body hydration and kidney function.

We test for diabetes from urine quickly and carefully

One of the important urine tests is the diabetes test, which can detect the presence of sugar in the urine. This test is a key tool for diagnosing diabetes, especially in the case of type 2 diabetes, which can be asymptomatic. There is also a home test that can never fully replace a medical diagnosis and cannot be relied upon.

Test for urinary tract inflammation

The urinary tract inflammation test is important for diagnosing urinary tract infections, including bladder infections. What does a urinary tract infection test reveal? In particular, the presence of bacteria and inflammatory marker levels in the urine. This is key to diagnosing a urinary tract infection and choosing the appropriate treatment which can be determined in our state-of-the-art urology department.

How are urine tests performed?

This depends on the different types of urine tests, including urinalysis, and the laboratory equipment. Typically, patients have a urine sample collected and the lab then performs the analysis. The test results may contain information about various parameters, including colour, density, pH, and the presence of various substances.

Preparing for a urine test may involve different steps depending on the specific type of test. Your General Practitioner or nurse will give you instructions on what you should or should not eat and drink before the test. It is important to follow these instructions carefully so that the test results are as accurate as possible.

After a few months since registration I am completely satisfied. Excellent GP and specialist services, flexible on appointments, friendly reception. Human approach. This is how I imagine medical care to be! Money well spent. By the way, they recognised early on that what I thought was a mole on my face wasn't quite a mole and sent me for vital surgery. Thank you.
