classic presentation of shiga toxin-associated HUS
bloody diarrhea followed by sudden onset of hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure
184
how to tx shiga toxin-associated HUS
- transfusions as needed for anemia and thrombocytopenia - do not give abx... in fact, if you give abx for E. coli hemorrhagic colitis, you may increase likelihood of getting HUS
185
prognosis of shiga toxin-associated HUS | what are some complications
prognosis is generally favorable poor prog signs: high WBC on admission, prolonged oliguria complications may be toxic megacolon, cerebral infarctions, etc
186
2 causes of atypical HUS
drugs (OCP, cyclosporine, tac, OKT3) | inherited
187
presentation, management, and prog of atypical HUS
- no diarrhea; severe proteinuria and HTN are common - tx is supportive - prog: some pts have recurrent HUS... compared to shiga toxin-associated HUS, these pts have a higher risk of progressing to HUS

clinical presentation of RTA in kids
infants and young children- growth failure, vomiting | older children and adults- recurrent calculi, muscle weakness, bone pain, myalgias
203
RTA: inability of the distal renal tubular cells to excrete H+ -vomiting, growth failure, acidosis, nephrocalcinosis and nephrolithiasis
``` distal RTA (type I) tx with small doses of oral alkali ```
204
RTA: impaired bicarb reabsorption by the proximal rental tubular cells -vomiting, growth failure, acidosis, muscle weakness
``` proximal RTA (type II) tx with large doses of oral alkali ```
205
RTA: transient acidosis in infants and children, hyperkalemia is hallmark -may be asymptomatic, can present with FTT
type IV RTA | -tx with furosemide to get rid of K and also oral alkali
206
proximal RTA, hyperphosphaturia, aminoaciduria, glucosuria, K wasting
Fanconi syndrome
207
classic electrolyte finding in RTA | what's the urine anion gap like in distal RTA
non-anion gap hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis | + urine anion gap in distal RTA
208
oliguris in kids is defined as
< 1mL/kg/hr
209
management of renal failure
- restore intravascular volume first - then restrict fluid intake to patient's insensible losses plus urine and stool output - restrict Na, K, phosphorus, protein intake - give oral phosphate binders and vitamin D analogs - tx anemia with iron and EPO - may need dialysis or transplant
210
FeNa formula
FeNa = (urine Na/serum Na)/(urine Cr/serum Cr) x 100%
211
when to consider dialysis or renal xplant | which dialysis to use
when GFR is 5-10% of normal peritoneal dialysis preferred in kids overall, xplant is the preferred tx for kids with ESRD
212
