A 28 yo female came to your clinic for bi pedal edema of 2 weeks duration. PE showed puffy eyelids, pale conjunctiva, + friction rub, decrease breath sounds and Gr 2 pedal edema. She denies any intake of any meds.

ColorNormal:pale to dark depending on the concentration of the
urine. Pathologic conditions:
gross hematuria hemoglobinuria myoglobinuria (pink, red, brown or black) ;
jaundice (dark yellow to brown);chyluria (white,milky) massive uric acid crystalluria (pink)
Drugs: rifampin (yellow-orange to red; phenytoin (red), nitrofurantoin (brown);
metronidazole, imipinem, methyldopa (darkening on standing)

pHpresence of H+ ions due to the secretion of acid in the collecting ductlow ph:
metabolic acidosis, high protein meals, (generate more acid and ammonia) and with volume depletion- aldosterone is stimulated resulting in acidic urine)
high ph:RTA, vegetable diets, infection with urease + like proteus)
Range: 5-8.5

GlycosuriaUsed for testing
Multistix – glucose oxodase reactionClinitest – modified Benedict’s test for reducing substances
Types of glycosuriaOverflow glycosuria – above 180mg/dlRenal glycosuria – associated with Fanconi Syndrome

ProteinPhysiologic
Daily production – 40-150 mg/day40% albumin, 40% tissue, 15% Ig and fragments, 5% other plasma proteins 150 mg/24 hrs adults, 140 mg/m2 in childrenMethod is sensitive to albumin
First morning Random protein crea ratio (same time for follow-up)Types of Proteinuria
Overflow – contains Bence-Jones proteins, myoglobin, HgbGlomerular permeability
Selective - albuminNon-selective
Tubular – decrease reabsorption of filtered protein; caused by antibiotics, heavy metalsHemodynamic – caused by CHF, heat, seizures, exercise

Microscopic Examination
Sediment OverviewTechnique for preparation and examinationMorning specimen is the most concentratedCentrifugation done in a conical tube for 3 to 5 minutes at 3000-5000 rpm Pipetting
Decant supernatant liquidPipette while invertedAspirate buttonMay resuspend if too thick
Cover slip: avoid bubbles, examine periphery for formed elements

ExaminationScan entire entire field at low powerMagnify selected areasStop down diaphragm or move light source for contrastStain if necessary

Microscopic Formed elementsCellular elements
WBC- easiest to find due to granular cytoplasm and lobulated nucleus
Marker for upper or lower tract infectionsIn women may be found as contaminantMay also be GN, Interstitial nephritis

RBCChanging the focus, causes red cells to appear as black tires, appear concave
NormalDysmorphic RBC’sCrenated RBC- occurs in hypertonic urineAcanthocytes- doughnut-like with blebs (mickey mouse ears)Discocyte→echinocytes→stomatocyte- transition inducible in changes in pH, osmolality and protein concentrations

TAKE HOME MESSAGESHistory and PE will determine the type of exams to be requestedIn approaching a patient with elevated creatinine, the first step is to differentiate acute from chronic kidney diseaseTrend of creatinine more important than a single determinationProper collection of urine must be emphasized to a patientBe systematic in interpreting laboratory results.
