Nosileia Tora undertakes the collection of urine, both for bedridden patients and for ambulatory patients.
In case the bedridden patients have a urinary catheter (foley), the urine is collected from the foley – urine collection bag connection. In the opposite case, where the collection cannot be done by themselves or from their relatives, the specialized staff of Nosileia Tora can carry out the collection via aseptic technique.
Urine can be collected for the following tests:
- General Urinary Test
- Urine culture (to get an antibiogram)
- Urine amylase
- 24 hour urine collection
Proper Urine Collection
To avoid false results, the sensitive area should be thoroughly cleaned before collecting the urine. Also, it would be good if the collection is done in the first morning urine. Then a specialized nurse undertakes to complete the antisepsis of the area.
Test results
The results of the general urine test come out immediately, within the first 24 hours. The time for the results of the urine culture, as well as the antibiogram, is 2-3 working days, in order for any microbe to develop.
