Follow-up Testing of Urine Dipstick Protein Results

A 24-hour urine protein may be ordered if a large amount of protein is detected with the dipstick method or if protein persists in the urine. A 24-hour urine protein may also be ordered if the physician suspects the release into the urine of protein other than albumin.
