Synopsis

This book provides a convenient and accurate method to detect and quantify albumin and sugar in the urine, which is especially helpful for those who regularly conduct urine testing outside of a laboratory setting, such as at the bedside or during house calls. The author presents a historical perspective on various methods for testing urine, including their drawbacks and advantages. Different qualitative and quantitative tests are discussed in detail, and the author provides compelling evidence supporting the effectiveness and practicality of the test papers introduced in this book. The author also examines the clinical significance of detecting these substances in the urine. The detection of albumin, for instance, can provide crucial information about kidney function. Similarly, the presence of sugar in the urine may point to diabetes. The book underscores the importance of accurately quantifying these substances to gain deeper insights into the patient's condition and effectively guide treatment decisions.
