00:00 So let's wrap up this part of the video series. Common signs and symptoms of a urinary tract infection include changes to urination such as pain, burning, frequency, urgency, and fatigue. Remember the symptoms that Mrs. Mayer shared with us. A complete urinalysis includes physical, chemical, and microscopic examination of the urine. A clean-catch or midstream sample, an intermittent catheter, and indwelling catheter sample are all acceptable to be used to provide a urine sample for a urinalysis. Thank you for watching our video today.
