Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The collection of urine for a urinalysis can occur with the collection of a voided sample, cystocentesis, or bladder catheterization. A voided sample is the collection of urine mid-stream as a patient urinates. Cystocentesis is the collection of urine by inserting a needle into the bladder and aspirating urine into a syringe. Bladder catheterization is the placement of a urinary catheter through the urethra into the bladder for direct collection.
