Q

acute kidney injury health promotion

A
  • teach healthy adults to drink 2-3l water daily

Q

stage 2

A

slightly reduced kidney function

22
Q

stage 3

A

moderately reduced kidney function

23
Q

stage 4

A

severely reduced kidney function; a noticeable jaundice may occur, partially around eyes

24
Q

stage 5

A

end stage kidney disease

25
Q

chronic kidney disease changes: Kidney changes

A
  • reduced GFR
  • BUN increases, urine output decreases
  • risk for fluid overload with edema, pulmonary crackles, shortness of breath, and pleural or pericardial effusion
26
Q

chronic kidney disease changes: metabolic changes

A
  • fluid and electrolyte balance is disrupted

- acid and base balance disrupted

27
Q

chronic kidney disease changes: cardiac changes

A
  • hypertension
  • hyperlipidemia
  • heart failure
  • pericarditis
28
Q

chronic kidney disease changes: hematologic and immunity changes

A
  • anemia
  • increased bleeding or bruising
  • reduced immunity= increased risk for infection
29
Q

chronic kidney disease changes: GI changes

A
  • halitosos (uremic fetor), stomatitis (mouth inflammation), anorexia, n/v, hiccups, peptic ulcer disease, uremic colitis, hemorrhagic shock from severe GI bleed
30
Q

ckd health promotion and maintenance

A

control diseases that lead to ckd

  • dietary adjustments
  • weight maintenance
  • smoking cessation
  • exercise
  • limitation of alc
31
Q

ckd anaylysis cues

A
  • fluid overload inability of disease kidneys to maintain body fluid balance
  • decreased cardaic function due to reduced stroke volume , dysrhythmias, fluid overload, and increased peripheral vascular resistance
  • weight loss due to inability to ingest, digest, absorb food and nutrients
  • potential for injury due to effects of kidney disease on bone density, blood clotting, and drug elimination
32
Q

hemodialysis procedure

A

dialysis works by passive transfer of toxins by diffusion

- beaware of blood clotting

33
Q

hemodialysis precuations

A
  • check pedal pulses and cap refil in arm with fistula or graft
  • check for bruit or thrill by auscultating or palpating access site
34
Q

hemodialysis access complications

A
  • thrombosis
  • stenosis
  • infection
  • aneurysm
  • ischemia
    hf
35
Q

hemodialysis drug intervene

A
  • many drugs are dialyzable
  • some drugs are held after dialysis
  • short acting hypertensives can lead to hypotension
36
Q

complications of dialysis

A
  • hypotension
  • dialysis equilibrium syndrome
  • cardiac events
  • reactions to dialyzers
37
Q

peritoneal dialysis procedure

A
  • soft plastic tube is placed in pt. abdominal cavity
  • sterile cleansing fluid put into catheter
  • after filtering process is finsihed fluid leaves pt. body through catheter
38
Q

types of peritoneal dialysis

A
  • continuous ambulatory peritoneal
  • intermittent peritoneal
  • intermittent perutoneal
39
Q

peritoneal dialysis complications

A

peritonitis
pain
do not microwave fluid

40
Q

peritoneal dialysis nursing care

A
  • assess vitals
  • weigh pt. using same scale
  • monitor pt. dry weight
  • baseline lab test doen before and during
  • check dressings
  • measure and record overflow
41
Q

kidney transplantation: candidate selection

A
  • advanced kidney disease
  • reasonable life expectancy
  • medically and surgically fit
  • in u.s waiting list when gfr <20 ml
42
Q

kidney transplantation donors

A
  • living donors (highest rate of graft survival)
  • non-heart beating donors
  • cadaveric donars
43
Q

kidney transplantation preoperative care

A
  • immunologic studies
  • dialysis 24 hours before surgery
  • blood transfusion before surgery
44
Q

kidney transplantation operative procedures

A
  • varies depending on status of donar
  • failed kidneys are left in place
  • new kidneys placed in right or left anterior iliac fossa
45
Q

kidney transplantation post operative care

A
  • urologic management
  • assess hourly urine output x 48 hours
  • cbi
  • monitor i/o
  • immunosuppressive drug therapy
46
Q

kidney transplantation post operative care complications

A
  • rejection
  • thrombosis
