Study Notes
Urinary System Diseases
- Clinically recognizable diseases of the urinary system are not common in horses, cattle, sheep, and goats, but are frequent in dogs and cats.
- Diseases of the bladder and urethra are more common and important in farm animals than diseases of the kidneys.
Principle Manifestations of Renal Insufficiency
- Abnormal constituents of urine:
- Proteinuria: proteins in urine, normally undetectable with standard tests.
- Hemoglobinuria: hemoglobin in urine, indicative of kidney damage.
Urine Analysis
- Normal urine contains only a small amount of protein, insufficient to be detected with standard tests.
- Proteinuria is a sign of kidney problems, and the amount of protein in urine can be measured to determine the severity of the issue.
