Test pack for help in diagnosing if you have a Urinary Tract Infection
Simple dip strip test for the detection of a possible urine infection. The test takes only 60 seconds and you can use the colour chart on the back of the pack so everything you need is in one place.
A urinary infection is an inflammation of the urinary tract, mostly caused by bacteria, and primarily intestinal bacteria.
The urinary tract includes the urethra, the bladder, the ureter and the kidneys.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) are 50 times more common in women and conditions can range from cystitis (a mild but disturbing inflammation that is limited to the bladder) to severe infections of the kidneys.
What are the symptoms of a Urinary Tract Infection?
The symptoms vary considerably, depending on whether the lower urinary tract or both the lower tract and the upper tract are affected. With infections of the lower urinary tract, there is a sensation of burning when emptying the bladder, or a strong urge to urinate. The urine may also be cloudy or have a strong odour. If the bladder is also affected, this is known as cystitis (a mild but unpleasant bladder inflammation).
Where the upper urinary tract is infected, the symptoms may be similar, but in addition there may be pain in the lower back, fever and shivering, and the condition may in extreme cases require hospitalisation. Medical handling depends on the precise factors and circumstances of the illness, patients often respond quickly to antibiotic treatment.
This test will screen for the presence of any protein, nitrites or leukocytes in your urine. The presence of these components may indicate a bacterial infection of the bladder.
REMEMBER: If the test is positive be sure to consult your doctor.
What results will I get?
These strips are meant for medical professionals and they will fully understand the purpose of these tests and how to interpret the results as they are standard urinalysis strip tests. Effectively any positive result for any of the tests will require further investigation unless the likely cause of the positive result is already known e.g. blood in urine can be a normal result if the urine is from a menstruating female. If any medical professional buying these strips wishes to purchase the automatic reader/urinalysis machine please contact us the email address below.
