3.1 Chemical Examination of Urine (SG)

Question 1

What is the Random Range for SG?

Answer 1

1.003-1.035

Question 2

Clinical sig:

SG for Hypersthenuria

Answer 2

> 1.010

Question 3

Clinical sig:

SG for Hyposthenuria

Answer 3

<1.010

Question 4

Clinical sig:

SG for Isosthenuria

Answer 4

1.010

Question 5

In SG, Reagent strip detects ionized solutes only

T or F

Answer 5

T

Question 6

Under Physical Examination, we use urinometry, refractometry, and harmonic oscillation densitometry. Under Chemical, we use the reagent strip pad which employs the principle of pKa change of polyelectrolyte.

T or F

Answer 6

T

Question 7

Bowman’s capsule consistently change due to state of hydration however, is the SG is persistently higher (> 1.010) than that then it is Hypersthenuria regardless of the state of hydration

T or F

Answer 7

T

Question 8

Isosthenuria – does not change –from the Bowman’s capsule up to the release of urine. This means that the tubules have already lost their concentrating abilities.

T or F

Answer 8
