Straining all urine is necessary to catch any renal calculi that are passed in the urine for analysis. This can help determine the composition of the calculi and guide treatment options. Measuring urine output, pH, and testing for occult blood may also be helpful in managing renal calculi, but they are not as critical as straining all urine.
