A first morning specimen is frequently requested to confirm orthostatic proteinuria.




The first morning specimen from a patient with no history of symptoms for diabetes is positive

for glucose. The patient should be asked to collect the second morning specimen

hour specimen




Failure to empty the bladder before beginning the collection of a timed urine specimen will cause
