Urine Collection Procedure male


 Males -

  • If uncircumcised, retract foreskin.
  • Wipe the end of the penis 
  • As the urine begins to flow, allow a small amount to fall into the toilet bowl. This clears the urethra of contaminants. Do not touch the inside of the cup.
  •  After the urine stream is well-established, urinate into the cup. Once an adequate amount of urine has filled the cup, around a half cup, remove the cup from the urine stream.
  • Pass the remaining urine into the toilet.
  • Replace the lid on the cup.
  • Perform hand hygiene

  • Wipe the inner labial folds front to back in a single motion with  towelette.
