The wide mouth allows for easy urine collection and the specimen bottle is specifically made with leak-proof materials for mess-free urine containment.
Features:
Why would my doctor need a 24 hour urine sample?
The benefits of taking a patient’s urine sample over a 24 hour period is that the doctor can better test for hormone and protein levels, it confirms kidney function, and certain substances like potassium, sodium and urea nitrogen. It can also be a great way to test for glucose levels, as well as toxins in the body. A larger sample of urine (compared to a sample in a little specimen cup) gives the practitioner a more complete idea of how your body functions throughout an average day.
Keep in mind that you are storing your urine for at least 24 hours and certain precautions need to be considered. The benefit to this Medical Action brand urine container is that it is easy to use and entirely leak-resistant when used properly for mess-free storage and transportation. The specimen container’s wide mouth allows you to easily fill it with urine and the ID tag ensures that your sample won’t get mixed up with someone else’s at the lab - or that the bottle won’t be tampered with at home.
