we used in our laboratory to use urine dipsticks to analyse urine samples ..what about automated urine analysers and it worthy to use it please define advantages and disadvantages?
The use of automated urine analyzers gives you much more consistancy. People get tired, distracted or lazy. Machines don't. i did a 20 sample comparsion between the automated dipstick and manual dipstick using controls. There were more differecnces than I expected. The machine was right more then the manual method.
