Abstract
Summary: Urine sediment counts were made in 380 specimens collected from 114 male and 27 female infants during the first 10 days after birth. In some the Addis counts were calculated. This method is considered inaccurate and erroneous in infants, however, and it is advocated that the findings should be expressed in cells per cubic millimetre. The counts found in the normal newborn infants are tabulated and the results are discussed. The range of normal sediment counts found exceeds that set for older children and adults in earlier publications.Keywords
