Urinalysis Dipstick - Learning video for nursing care providers
Urinalysis is the measurement and interpretation of the physical, chemical and microscopic properties of urine (Tortora and Derrickson, 2017). This video aims to demonstrate how to correctly and safely test a urine sample using urinalysis strips (dip sticks) and how to accurately document the correct clinical information following completion of the task.
