Urine Dipstick Tests

Captions available

The idea

A urine dipstick is a strip with test pads that change color in response to substances in urine.

In practice

Some dipstick tests check for signs of urinary tract infection, such as nitrites and white blood cells; others check for glucose or protein.

Where people slip

Read each pad at the time the instructions specify, and record exactly what you see.
