How It Works

Assess hydration status using the urine color scale (1-8) validated against urine specific gravity, and calculate daily fluid needs to maintain adequate hydration for performance

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Urine color scale validated against urine specific gravity — The urine color scale validated against urine specific gravity recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Calculate daily fluid needs — The calculate daily fluid needs recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the hydration status result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the urine color scale validated against urine specific gravity, calculate daily fluid needs for the scenario you are assessing. Assess hydration status using the urine color scale (1-8) validated against urine specific gravity, and calculate daily fluid needs to maintain adequate hydration for performance. Use the hydration status result to inform your calculation.
