About this procedure
A urine dipstick (automated) — a quick urinalysis that screens for infection, blood, glucose, and protein.
What to expect
Provide a clean-catch urine sample. The strip is read by a machine in seconds. Common for UTI symptoms, pregnancy visits, or as part of an annual physical. Often the first lab when something looks off.
