3.00 Credits
This course covers basic urinalysis procedures used in the medical laboratory in the examination of a patient's urine. Students study urine formation, renal physiology, the role of the kidney in health and disease, urine specimen types, and components of the routine urinalysis test. The course also includes an overview of other non-urine body fluids analyzed in the clinical laboratory. In the laboratory, students will perform routine urinalysis using both manual and automated methods. Students will practice using a laboratory information system to order tests and report results. Must earn a grade of "C" or better in this course to proceed in MDLT Major coursework. (Prerequisite(s): Enrollment in MDLT Major courses) 3C/2/1/0
