Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To strain urine, one needs a strainer or gauze that will help separate any solid material or debris from the liquid urine. A midstream urine specimen is collected when the person starts to urinate which is used to avoid contaminating the urine with bacteria from the skin. A 24-hour urine specimen measures the total amount of urine output during a 24-hour period, and elastic tape is used for securing catheters or dressings.
