Analysis of the Value of Automated Urine Sediment Analyzer and Microscopic Detection Methods in the Positive Detection Rate of Routine Urinalysis
Objective To explore the value of using the automated urine sediment analyzer and microscopic detection methods in clinical tests for routine urinalysis.Methods A total of 68 cases were selected from patients undergoing routine urinalysis at Luoyang Xicheng Hospital from May 2022 to December 2023.Each urine sample was subjected to tests using an automated urine sediment analyzer,microscopic detection,and urine dry chemical analysis.Based on the detection methods,the cases were divided into three groups:Group 1(automated urine sediment analyzer),Group 2(microscopic detection),and Group 3(urine dry chemical analysis).The positive detection rates of red blood cells and white blood cells were analyzed.Results Among the 68 routine urinalysis samples,Group 2 detected 37 cases of positive red blood cells and 31 cases of negative red blood cells;27 cases of positive white blood cells and 41 cases of negative white blood cells.Group 1 detected 38 cases of positive red blood cells and 30 cases of negative red blood cells;Group 3 detected 39 cases of positive red blood cells and 29 cases of negative red blood cells.Group 1 detected 29 cases of positive white blood cells and 39 cases of negative white blood cells;Group 3 detected 31 cases of positive white blood cells and 37 cases of negative white blood cells.The diagnostic accuracy for red and white blood cells was higher in Group 1,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in sensitivity and specificity between the groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The application of an automated urine sediment analyzer for routine urinalysis has a favorable overall value,with higher diagnostic accuracy and a simpler,faster clinical operation compared to routine urine dry chemical analysis.This method shows significant clinical application value.In practice,the microscopic detection method can be used in conjunction with automated analysis based on the patient's condition and needs,thus enabling more accurate test data.
