Answer:

The results of a urine analysis can be noted in tables in addition to progress notes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to expedite the documentation of the results of a urine sample and present more direct and objective information, it is possible to document these results in tables, in place of progress notes. This is because, although progress notes are very important for assessment and documentation, tables are more objective, quick and simple documents that allow the main point of the urine analysis to be presented quickly, as they are not pre-empted to explain the results, but exposes them directly.
