Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sampling tools, in particular to a urine collector. Background Art

[0002] Urinalysis is also called urine analysis, which is defined as the analysis of urine by visual inspection, physics, chemistry, microscope and instrumentation to achieve the purpose of preventing, diagnosing, observing the therapeutic effect and judging the prognosis of urinary, circulatory, liver, gallbladder and endocrine diseases. Urinalysis is a must-check item in health check-up. It is a general screening item of urine analysis, including eleven items such as color, turbidity, dry chemical test strip and sediment microscope examination. This examination can be used to determine the corresponding symptoms.

[0003] Abnormal results: Diabetes-related items, pH, protein, specific gravity, sugar (GLU) and ketone bodies (KET). The detection of these indicators helps to diagnose related complications and whether some organs of the body are damaged, such as whether ketonemia occurs. Under normal circumstances, urine sugar and ketone bodies are negative; urinary tract infection items, white blood cells (WBC), occult blood or red blood cells, nitrite (NIT), color and turbidity (TUR). When the urinary system is infected with bacteria, white blood cells and red blood cells often appear in the urine, and the color of the urine is not good. The color or turbidity also changes, and nitrite is sometimes positive. Chemical detection of urine white blood cells and occult blood or red blood cells only serves as a screening method, and the clinical diagnosis is based on the results of microscopy. Other disease-related items mainly include pH, specific gravity, bilirubin (BIL), urobilinogen (URO), color and other indicators. Bilirubin and urobilinogen reflect the ability and amount of the liver to metabolize hemoglobin. Under normal circumstances, urine bilirubin is negative and urobilinogen is weakly positive. When the above indicators increase, it often indicates jaundice and the urine color is yellow-green.

[0004] Female patients usually need to take a urine test when undergoing examinations for some gynecological diseases. Currently, the commonly used urine collection tools are mostly wide-mouth cups. The cup-shaped tools with simple structures often cause urine spillage during use. When patients hold the wide-mouth cup, their hands are easily stained with urine, which is very inconvenient. After urine collection, when patients hold the wide-mouth cup and move it, the wide-mouth cup currently lacks a cover, and urine is easily spilled, affecting the sanitary environment.

[0005] Therefore, a urine sampling device is needed which is convenient for sampling operation and can avoid urine spillage. Utility Model Content
