Urine Output

Urine output refers to the amount of urine that a person produces in a given period of time, typically measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L) per hour or day. Urine output is an important indicator of kidney function and can provide valuable information about a person's hydration status and overall health.

Urine output is commonly measured in hospital and clinical settings, particularly in patients who are critically ill, undergoing surgery, or being treated for certain medical conditions such as kidney disease or heart failure. Abnormal urine output can be an early sign of kidney dysfunction, dehydration, or other medical problems, and may require further evaluation and treatment.
