Abstract
Urinary tract diseases are a growing health problem. Urinary tract diseases are often diagnosed in patients with no symptom. An abnormal urine test may be the earliest warning of a significant renal disease. Because of its simplicity, routine urine analysis is the best way in early detection of most frequent conditions like proteinuria, hematuria or bacteriuria very low cost. This is useful in selecting asymptomatic patients with renal diseases who may benefit from early treatment, counseling or who require long term follow up.
This study was done to see the value of routine urine analysis and study the magnitude of abnormal urinalysis in school age children with no symptoms of urinary tract disease.
One hundred patients were recruited randomly from pediatric clinic of Beni-Sueif university hospital and EL-Sauad Aisa primary school for girls, 14 were boys and 86 girls. There mean age was (9) ranged from (6 to 12 years). 85 (85%) were from urban areas whereas 15 (15%) from rural areas. Patients who had any clinical evidence of renal or systemic diseases were excluded from the study. Urine analysis for all screened children was done followed by kidney function for positive cases of abnormal urinalysis followed by abdominal ultrasound for positive cases.
Percentage of the patients with urine abnormality showed that (11%) of screened children had urine abnormalities.(9%) of patient had pus cells in urine 100% were females (high in females), while (3%) had RBCs in urine 100% were females and none of them had albumin in urine, all of them had normal kidney function and no abnormalities were detected in renal ultrasonography.
