“…[46][47][48] Urine cytology has a supportive role in the evaluation of these patients 49 in conjunction with upper tract imaging, cystoscopy, and bladder biopsy. However, in one study, 49 urine cytology did not lead to the discovery of additional tumours that were not detected by other investigations.…”

This second best practice review examines five series of common primary care questions in laboratory medicine: (1) laboratory testing for allergy, (2) diagnosis and monitoring of menopause, (3) the use of urine cytology, (4) the usefulness of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and (5) the investigation of possible urinary tract infection. The review is presented in a question-answer format. The recommendations represent a précis of guidance found using a standardised literature search of national and international guidance notes, consensus statements, health policy documents, and evidence based medicine reviews, supplemented by MEDLINE EMBASE searches to identify relevant primary research documents. They are standards but form a guide to be set in the clinical context. Most are consensus rather than evidence based. They will be updated periodically to take account of new information.

“…Recent urinary tract instrumentation should be excluded as a cause of gross haematuria. 48 MH (by dipstick analysis) is more controversial. Although it is generally accepted that symptomatic MH requires microscopy, this has recently been questioned.…”

“…Gross or macroscopic haematuria requires further investigation, but the clinical significance of microscopic haematuria in trauma patients is controversial 7. The combination of abdominal tenderness and microscopic haematuria has been found to be only 64% sensitive and 94% specific in predicting intra-abdominal injury by abdominal CT 8.…”
