Three Glass Sample

The three-glass test or Jadasson test is one of the urine testing methods that is used to determine the quantity and quality of urine excreted. This method was developed by the Swedish physician and scientist Yadass in 1921 and is still used today.

The three-glass test is carried out as follows: the patient collects urine into three glasses, each of which has a certain volume. The first glass is filled with the first portion of urine, the second glass is filled with the second portion of urine, and the third glass is filled with the third portion of urine. Then each glass is analyzed and the quantity and quality of urine is determined.

This test allows you to evaluate the functioning of the kidneys, bladder and urethra. It can also be used to diagnose various diseases such as urinary tract infections, cystitis, nephritis and others.

As a result of analyzing a three-glass sample, it is possible to determine the presence of protein, red blood cells, leukocytes, casts and other elements in the urine. The volume and color of urine is also determined. All this data can help the doctor make an accurate diagnosis and prescribe appropriate treatment.

Thus, the three-glass test is an important method for examining urine and is widely used in medicine for diagnosing various diseases of the urinary system.
