~Nurse's Directions for Collecting and Testing the Urine in Diabetes
Mellitus.~--The first urine voided in the morning at 7 A.M. should be
thrown away, after which the entire quantity during the ensuing
twenty-four hours, including that at 7 A.M. the following morning,
should be collected in a thoroughly clean, wide-mouth bottle
sufficiently large to contain the entire quantity. This should be kept
in a cool place to prevent decomposition. After the urine has been
measured, four or five ounces are removed for testing purposes. There
is no necessity for having an elaborately equipped laboratory for
making the simple tests of the diabetic urine. The nurse is only
required to make the simple tests, leaving the more elaborate one for
the physician. The articles necessary for these tests must be kept
perfectly clean in order to make the tests accurate. The bottle in
which the urine is collected must be washed and sterilized daily
before the collection begins. One small three-inch white enameled or
porcelain dish, one 10 c.c. graduated pipette, 6 test tubes, 1 small
alcohol lamp or Bunsen burner, 1 box of sodium carbonate, 1 box
talcum, and the reagents necessary for making the test, namely,
Benedict's solution, Fehling's solution, and Haines's solution.
