Question:

A patient attends the doctor with renal pain, strong, persistent desire to urinate and her urine reveals the presence of hemoglobin, is this compatible with urinary tract infection? how would you confirm this?

Answer:

Hemoglobin in urine can be compatible with urinary tract infection. I would centrifuge the urine and look at the pellet under the microscope in search for linfocites and pyocytes, which are characteristic of urinary tract infection. Also culture the urine sample in different media to determine presence of bacteria and antibiotic resistance to determine the treatment
