Urine microscopy
https://t.me/med1917
Urine microscopy is operator dependent and many consider it to be a dying art.
Cells
Red blood cells:
• >2 red cells/ mm3 is a bnorm al.
• Can come from anywhere in the urinary tract. Isomorphic red cells are similar to
circulating red cells and suggest bleeding from an extrarenal source. Dysmorphic
red cells are abnormal in size/ shape. Although they may indicate bleeding from
the glomerulus (especially in exam questions), assessment is subjective and
dysmorphism also occurs due to changes in pH, osmolality, protein, and due to
tubular passage.
White blood cells (

The ‘piss prophets’
Beware the fallacies, deceit and juggling of the piss- pot science used by all those
who pretend knowledge of diseases by the urine.
Thomas Brian,
1655
Medieval texts1 give the following maxims regarding urinary change and disease:
• White or straw- coloured urine = weak and cold liver and stomach.
• Foamy urine = eructation (belching).
• Light- coloured, turbid urine = mucus.
• Lead circle on thin urine = pathological melancholy.
• Bubbles on the surface = disease of the head.
• Watery urine = love sickness.
• Swampy, black, stinking urine = fatal.
• Lead- coloured urine = a disintegrating uterus.
• Reddish, cloudy urine with bubbles = asthma or an irregular heartbeat.

• Moderate = pH 7.20– 7.29 (~bicarbonate 10– 19mmol/ L).
• Severe = pH <7.2 (~bicarbonate <10mmol/ L): refer to nephrology/ critical care.
Treatment is of the underlying disorder to stop acid production. If treatment is
delayed, acidosis will persist and renal replacement may be needed (
