what the risks are male urinary system, urine sugar, urine glucose, glucosuria, a urine glucose test measures the amount, glucose in urine, urine glucose, measured, a "spot test", a dipstick containing a color-sensitive pad, pad is saturated, specific chemicals which react, glucose, resulting color is indicative, the glucose concentration, infants, thoroughly wash the area around the urethra, open a urine collection bag, a plastic bag, an adhesive paper on one end, place it on infant, males, entire penis, in the bag, adhesive attached, skin, females, bag, over the labia, place a diaper over the infant, bag, infant, checked frequently, bag changed, infant has urinated, bag, active infants, take a couple of attempts, lively infants, displace the bag, causing an inability, obtain the specimen, urine is drained, container, transport, deliver it, upon completion, consulted, taking any drugs, affect test results, special considerations, discontinue drugs, interfere, special considerations, no special preparation is necessary, collection is taken, infant, a couple of extra collection bags necessary, test involves only normal urination, no discomfort, this test, commonly, screen, diabetes, most dietary carbohydrates end up, glucose, in the blood, glucose, major source of energy, most cells, cells, brain, red blood cells, totally dependent on blood glucose, a source of energy, brain, in fact, that glucose concentrations, in the blood remain, a certain range, function, concentrations less than, 30mg/dl, produce confusion, unconsciousness, high glucose concentrations, greater than 300 mg/dl, similar symptoms, associated, dehydration, infection, acidosis, major hormone regulating glucose concentration, in the body is insulin, other hormones glucagon, epinephrine, cortisol also affect it, glucose levels, measured most commonly to diagnose diabetes, to monitor how well diabetes, controlled, diabetes, very common disease, affecting, 2%, the general population, diabetes results from deficient insulin, decreased sensitivity to insulin, results of a urine glucose test, abnormal in cases of renal glycosuria, kidney disease where glucose leaks, urine, blood glucose levels, glucose should not be detectable, in the urine, glucose is reported positive on a urine specimen, further testing is warranted, abnormal results producing greater-than-normal levels, diabetes mellitus, renal glycosuria, an isolated abnormality, in the context of other kidney diseases, fanconi's syndrome, no risks, drugs, increase urine glucose measurements include aminosalicylic acid, cephalosporins, chloral hydrate, chloramphenicol, dextrothyroxine, diazoxide, diuretics, loop, thiazides, estrogens, isoniazid, levodopa, lithium, nafcillin, nalidixic acid, nicotinic acid, large doses, drugs, give false positive results, clinitest, clinistix, tes-tape, acetylsalicylic acid, aminosalicylic acid, ascorbic acid, cephalothin, chloral hydrate, nitrofurantoin, streptomycin, sulfonamides, drugs, give false negative results, ascorbic acid, using clinistix, tes-tape, levodopa, using clinistix, phenothiazines, using clinistix, tes-tape.
