Urine Sediment Leukocytes

Sediment leukocytes are white blood cells counted under the microscope in spun-down urine. A few are normal; a higher number can point to inflammation or infection in the urinary tract.

Doctor's Assessment Included

Urine Sediment Leukocytes: what this test measures

This is the microscopic white-blood-cell count in your urine sediment, reported per microliter. Unlike the dipstick leukocyte screen, it is an actual cell count, and it is interpreted together with the urine culture and your symptoms.

Urine Sediment Leukocytes: how the blood test works

Referral
No GP referral needed. After the order we arrange the referral through ZorgDomein, within one business day; orders after 17:00 or at the weekend start on the next business day. ZorgDomein emails a barcode, and that barcode is what the draw site needs.
The draw
A blood draw from a vein in the arm, at a partner laboratory's draw site. No home kit, no finger prick.
Where
650+ draw sites run by independent laboratories across the Netherlands. Draw sites

Urine Sediment Leukocytes: lifestyle and this value

A clean-catch midstream sample and good hydration give the most reliable result. If the count is raised, your GP can advise whether a culture or treatment is needed.
