Drirect kidey damage

HTN

Autoimmune

Sepsis

UTI

urethral stones and obstruction

Absolute contraindiation for peritoneal dialysis?

A

IBD, ischaemic bowel, diverticulitis, abdmonial abcess and 3rd trimester pregnancy

Also consider relative contraindications: abdominal hernia, previous abdo surfery, blind, dementia, poor hygiene, nephrotic syndrome, airway obstruction

39
Q

How does Cylopsporin work?

A

immuno supression via inhibiting the activation of T cells

40
Q

How does aziophyorpine work?

A

Immuno supression: stops cell cycle proliferation of B and T cells

41
Q

What infection are unique to imunosupressed patients?

A

pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia

CMV colitits

There is also an incrasde risk of deforated diverticulitis

42
Q

What complications can occur due to immuno supression?

A

increased infection

increased chance of malignancy

increased risk of cardiovacsular disease

interaction with CP450 drugs

43
Q

IgA nephropathy

A

commonest cause of glomerulonephritis

diagnosis of biopsy

common in children

44
Q

Most common causes of end stage renal disease?

A

Diabetes

Glomerulonephritis

HTN

Polycystic kidney disease

Renovascular disease

Plyenephritis

45
Q

Common cancers in the immuno supressed?

A

Squamous cell (skin) cancer

heamatological cancer

Also atypical infections

46
Q

What need to be matched for transplant?

A

Same blood group

HLA compatibilty for live donors

Time patient has spent on the watinign list

47
Q

What is primary hyperparathyroidism?

A

Causes increased Ca and decreased phosphate. Usually due to an parathyroid gland tumour.

48
Q

What is secondary hyperparathyroidism?

A

Has low serum Ca and increased phosphate. Usually caused by low Vit. D or CKD.

49
Q

What is tertiary hyperparathyroidism?

A

Results in hypercalcaemia. From secondary hyperparathyroidism or CKD where there is autonamous PTH is produced.

50
Q

What type of hyperparathyroidism is caused by CKD?

A

Secondary hyperparathyroidism as Vit. D is produced n the kidneys. After a while this can turn into tertiary hyperparathyroidism.
