Urine flow rate (or urinary flow rate) is a measure of the quantity of urine produced in a specified period of time. Common periods of time used include "minute" and "24 hours".
It can be used in the calculation of clearance and glomerular filtration rate.
The letters "V" (for volume) and "Q" are both used as a symbol for urine flow rate.
The average rate changes with age.[1]
