Abstract
Complete collection of urine from infants is difficult. A cot was constructed for timed collections of urine and metabolic balance studies which is based on the model used in the Philadelphia Children''s Hospital [USA], but has been modified to allow the mother to handle her baby. Urine specimens have been collected continuously for periods up to 30 days without difficulty.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
