Answer: 2
Rationale: A 24-hour urine collection is started after the child voids. That
specimen is not saved, but all subsequent specimens in that 24-hour period
should be collected. It would not be an accurate collection of 24 hours of urine
if the collection began at 0700, bedtime, or when the order is noted.
