, Exam 2: Urinalysis and Body Fluids Test
Banks With Solutions
Failure to blot the edge of the reagent strip may result in errors in color interpretation caused by:
runover
Reagent strip chemical tests may be inaccurate if the specimen is: tested immediately after
refrigeration
When performing reagent strip quality control, the: positive readings should match the
reference value by plus or minus one color block
All of the following will produce an alkaline urine EXCEPT: cranberry juice
The normal range of urine pH is: 4.5 to 8.0
A urine specimen with a pH of 9.0 indicates that the patient should be: asked to collect a
new specimen
Urinary pH provides valuable information for the: identification of urinary crystals
