Urinalysis is a common clinical test, especially suitable for children due to noninvasive sample collection. This review covers common and specialized pediatric urine tests, collection methods, underused diagnostics, and emerging molecular applications.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical Chemistry
  • Pediatric Medicine
  • Urology

Background:

  • Urinalysis is a frequent clinical laboratory test for both pediatric and adult patients.
  • Urine specimen collection is noninvasive and readily available, making urinalysis ideal for pediatric use.
  • This article focuses on the application of urinalysis in pediatric diagnostics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review common and less common urine tests used in pediatric patients.
  • To discuss special considerations for urine specimen collection in children.
  • To highlight underused simple tests and novel molecular urinalysis applications.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of common and specialized pediatric urinalysis.
  • Discussion of pediatric urine collection techniques.
