Urine Specific Gravity

You can find the NOTES and ILLUSTRATIONS for this lecture on our website at:

Ninja Nerds!
In this lecture Professor Kristin Beach, MSN, BSN, RN will be discussing Urine Specific Gravity. Urine specific gravity is a laboratory test that shows the concentration of all chemical particles in the urine. The normal range for urine specific gravity is 1.0101 to 1.030. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories or institutions. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. We hope you enjoy this lecture and be sure to support us below!

Incredible, I. Can’t believe somebody can teach this in such nice way:::: I’ll never forget it now for whole life ❤

[cqlqbqz]

Thank you
They just teach us the number and the test with no theoretical background of it 😊

[BellaRose]

Thank you! <3 this helped me understand why DI and SIADH have certain specific gravity levels.

The trick is : anything that causes Oliguria causes high specific gravity in addition to glucosuria in diabetes and anything that causes Polyuria and excluding glycosuria in diabetes also causes low specific gravity.

this is very informative and simple. love the neat handwriting...

[osamaaldogail]

Thank you doctor a lot 😊
Simple short and informative

Increased in decreased kidney perfusion, inappropriate ADH secretion, or heart failure.
Decreased in chronic kidney disease, diabetes insipidus, malignant hypertension, diuretic administration, and lithium toxicity.

[kaiekum]

Great explanation. Thanks for sharing👍

[kirtigarg]

Please make a video on placental drug transfer mainly with highly protein bound drugs like dicloxacillin etc

[karmagaming]

Love ur videos ❤️

Nope, I still have no idea what it means for health if it’s high or low …….
I run countless times to toilet and my gravity is high ….. doesn’t fit in picture made in video …..

[ramavtar]

Mam my specific grevity is 1.010 ???
What this caused isosthenuria??? Because this was fix grevity

[higuysrealtalkwithtracy]

My per is almost clear. The gravity is low. I am worried😮

[clewieg]

My s.g is maxes but everything else is perfect

[mihalym.]

Hi, thank you your post! I have result of 1.030 consistently using strip test. Countercheck with destilled water gives a 1.020 strip result. Does it mean the strip is not good, because the warer test shold show 1.0?

Hold up, is this the daughter from the @ninjanerd ? Idk why she reminds of him lol

“Any number HIGHER than this will..uh..will um, show us something else.” ABSOLUTE MASTERY OF CONTENT 🙄😂🤡
