Check For UTI Rapid Diagnostic Test Strips - 1 Kit
Symptoms like a frequent urge to urinate, cloudy urine, and a severe burning sensation can indicate a urinary tract infection (UTI), a condition that can escalate to severe kidney infections if ignored. The Check For UTI Rapid Test provides clinical-level diagnostic screening without a laboratory visit. By instantly detecting leukocytes (white blood cells) and nitrites (produced by UTI-causing bacteria) in the urine, this home test allows patients to confirm the infection and seek prompt antibiotic treatment.
How to Use / Operate
Collect a midstream urine sample in a clean, dry cup. Remove the test strip from its foil pouch and fully immerse the colored pads into the urine for 1 to 2 seconds. Remove the strip, tap off excess liquid, and read the results by comparing the pads to the color chart provided on the box exactly at the 2-minute mark.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the UTI Rapid Test used for?
It is used as an early screening tool to detect signs of bacterial infection and inflammation in the urinary tract from the comfort of your home.
What does a positive result mean?
A positive result for either leukocytes or nitrites strongly suggests a bacterial UTI is present. You should consult a physician immediately for prescription antibiotics.
Important Clinical Considerations
Vitamin C supplements and certain medications (like Pyridium) can interfere with the chemical reaction on the test strip, causing false negatives or false positives. Do not read the results after 3 minutes, as color changes will become inaccurate.
