Perbandingan Pemeriksaan Leukosit Urine Segar Dengan Setelah 2 Jam Di Suhu Kamar

Background: Urinalysis is a parameter often requested by
clinicians. The urinalysis parameters consist of macroscopic,
microscopic or sedimental examination and urine chemistry
examination. Urine examination is very important, especially in
making the diagnosis. Procrastination delay results in errors in
diagnosis and administration of drugs that lead to adverse
outcomes of patients, analysis should be performed no later
than 4 hours after sampling. Urine has a stability at room
temperature ie for 1 hour, if urine is silenced long then the
bacteria will multiply, so it can decompose NH3 (ammonia)
which is alkaline. Under alkaline conditions, the pH in the urine
will increase. This may affect the sediment component in the
urine to rapid lysis so that the amount will be reduced General
purpose of this study to determine the difference results of
examination of fresh urine leukocytes compared after 2 hours at
room temperature. Method: descriptive observasional with
number of sample counted 20 sample. Result: Based on the test
result, the positive percentage value in fresh urine is 100% and
the positive percentage value in urine after 2 hours is 70%. In
the Wilcoxon statistical test obtained p-value <0.001 (> 0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the research that has been done then it
can be concluded that there are differences in the results of
fresh urine leukosit better than urine after 2 hours at room
temperature.
