What Does "EPITH-UA Result 11-20 #/HPF Noted High" Indicate?

I just received my blood test results from a recent physical; however, I don't know how to interpret them as the doctor did not provide an explanation...this appears to have come straight from the lab. Can you assist if I provide the results? For example. my EPITH-UA resulted in 11-20 #/HPF noted as High. What does this mean?

Hi,

I have gone through your query.
You have mentioned about the blood test reports. But EPITH-UA mean epithelial cells in Urine analysis. 11-20 cells per high power field is high. It usually suggests any infection or trauma or pathology to the lining of urinary tract. Types of cell can be determined by microscopy and hence the cause.
Yes, i can assist with your blood reports too.
