Urine testing in OB office

6 followers

My OB office is wanting to be able to do only urine protein and glucose on patients. I am assuming this is common in many OB offices. We currently use the Clinitek Status Connect system and the Multistix 10SG. Do the other Multistix strips produce a quicker result? What is everyone else using?

Thank you!

Our OB clinics using the Clinitek use the 7 pad Multistix.
I don't have an instrument manual with me so don't know about the time decreasing when changing strips, sorry.

I wouldn't think that the time would change at all - all urine dip sticks I've ever seen say to read at 1 minute. Our OB dept also uses Multistix 10SG with the Clinitek Reader.

Do they still carry Uristix 1 or Uristix 4? I think they can be read on the Clinitek but needs a smaller tray.

Thank you everyone. The Uristix 4 is still available, and yes it does need a different tray.
