Definition of UA
UA definition - medical term
Abbreviation for urinalysis, a test that
determines the content of the urine. Because urine removes
toxins and excess liquids from the body, it can contain
important clues. Urinalysis can be used to detect some
types of disease, particularly in the case of metabolic
disorders and kidney disease. It can also be used to
uncover evidence of drug abuse. Accurate urinalysis usually
requires a "clean catch" of urine. If you are giving a
urine sample, drink plenty of fluids in advance, and wait
until one or two seconds into the flow of urine before
urinating into the receptacle. For some tests it is
important to get the first urine of the day, which will
contain the highest concentration of toxins and other
clues.
