Findings from routine urinalysis and hematocrit on ambulatory oral and maxillofacial surgery patients.
A significant number of previously undetected pathologic conditions was disclosed when routine urinalysis and hematocrit determination were done on a large number of patients who came for treatment to a private oral and maxillofacial surgery office. This discovery of abnormalities could cause alteration of plans for contemplated surgery or anesthesia and is a contribution to the good health of patients seen.
