random urine sample vs. 24-hour urine sample
Hello,
As a medical doctor I can say that urine sampling is done by either obtaining a random specimen or by a 24-hour urine collection. Timed specimens might be used in spesific situations as well but an hourly sampling doesn't make sense.
I think dU stands for Diurnal Urine, which is a 24-hour urine collection.

Another option might be "hourly urine output" and it is calculated by dividing the daily output into 24.
