Low specific gravity: A low urine specific gravity (sg) means you are not excreting a concentrated urine, one of the causes of that may be that you were drinking a large amount of fluid. The reasons for your low sg are difficult to interpret without knowing your blood results.
Specific gravity urine is low. 1.002. what does this mean ... - HealthTap
A specific gravity of 1.010 is very close to the fluids in your blood vessels (not the blood cells).So in the urine, that means the kidneys aren't working to save any fluid (mostly water).This could be a normal response to drinking a lot of fluids or a sign that the kidneys aren't doing their job.Depends on what else is going on with you.If you ...
urine test showed specific gravity 1.010 and the normal was 1.011 ...
Hi all,I'm sure this is really obvious but I can't get my head around it and can't find the answer/explanation anywhere I search....Why/how does the urine specific gravity go up in SIADH?? In my head it should go down because the urine would be more diluted due to less water output. I know this i...
A urine having a ph of 9.0 with many uric acid crystals, clear and a specific gravity of 1.010. what could be the findings?
Trace elements: Pure water has a specific gravity (SG) of 1. Whatever is added, increases theSG, the widest range is in the urine to preserve the blood SG within a very narrow range, which is usually normal.
So I know that with DI the specific gravity is low b/c the urine is dilute, but in SIADH, why is the specific gravity low when water is being retained? Is it because that water is being retained else where, blood, and not going through the kidney tubules? HELP! I've read threads on here and resea...
