Hourly Urine Output Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate Hourly Urine Output (U) is:

\[ U = \frac{T}{H} \]

Where:

\( U \) is the Hourly Urine Output (ml/hour)
\( T \) is the Total Urine Output (ml)
\( H \) is the Number of Hours

What is Hourly Urine Output?

Hourly urine output is a measure of the volume of urine produced by the kidneys per hour. It is an important parameter in assessing kidney function and fluid balance in the body. Monitoring hourly urine output can help healthcare providers detect and manage conditions such as dehydration, kidney failure, and other renal disorders. It is typically measured in milliliters per hour (ml/hour).

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Total Urine Output (T): 1500 ml
Number of Hours (H): 24 hours

Using the formula to calculate Hourly Urine Output:

\[ U = \frac{1500}{24} \approx 62.50 \, \text{ml/hour} \]

This means that the hourly urine output is approximately 62.50 ml/hour.
