A

Accumulation of pus in subphrenic space

27
Q

Definition of chronic kidney disease

A

Longstanding abnormal kidney function or structure with GFR < 60 mls/min/1.73m^2

28
Q

Stage 1 CKD

A

Haematuria, proteinuria, abnormal anatomy, normal GFR > 90

29
Q

Stage 2 CKD

A

Haematuria, proteinuria, abnormal anatomy, mildly reduced GFR (60-89)

30
Q

Stage 3 CKD

A

Moderately reduced GFR (30-59)

31
Q

Stage 4 CKD

A

Severe reduction in GFR (15-29)

32
Q

Stage 5 CKD

A

Kidney failure, GFR <15

33
Q

Level A1 kidney disease

A

Albuminuria <3mg/mmol

34
Q

Level A2 kidney disease

A

Albuminuria 3-30 mg/mmol

35
Q

Level A3 kidney disease

A

Albuminuria >30 mg/mmol

36
Q

Cause of urinary tract infections

A

Bacteria enter urinary tract, adhere to bladder cells, and elicit inflammatory response

37
Q

Top two causes of UTIs

A

E-coli and staphylococcus aureus

38
Q

Lower UTI

A

infection confined to bladder and urethra

39
Q

Upper UTI

A

infection spreads to kidney and ureter. more severe

40
Q

Complicated UTI

A

Other condition (including diabetes, kidney stones, blockages, catheters, immunosuppressants, and developmental abnormalities) along with UTI. Higher risk of kidney damage and septicaemia

41
Q

Risk factors for UTIs

A

female gender, increasing age, recent antibiotic use, recent sexual activity, catheterisation, pregnancy, institutionalisation, diabetes

42
Q

Signs/symptoms of lower UTI

A

increased urinary frequency (polyuria), painful urination (dysuria), haematuria (most common cause of haematuria is UTI), foul-smelling or cloudy urine (pyuria), urgency, urinary incontinence

43
Q

Signs/symptoms of upper UTI

A

rigors, fever (pyrexia), nausea/vomiting, flank pain, confusion in elderly patients

44
Q

Bacteria in urine but no UTI symptoms

A

asymptomatic bacteriuria

45
Q

UTI epidemiology

A

UTIs uncommon in men and children. 25% of women will experience UTIs, and 25% of these will have recurrent UTIs. In men and children, usually have an underlying abnormality of the urinary tract. Presents with confusion in elderly people with an upper UTI

46
Q

Urine changes with UTI

A

pyuria, dysuria, haematuria, polyuria, incontinence, urgency, very small amounts produced.

47
Q

Urine changes in AKI

A

reduced urine output

48
Q

Urine changes in CKD

A

increased frequency

49
Q

Describe loop diuretics

A

act on thick ascending loop of Henle, are powerful diuretics. Inhibit Na-K-2Cl channels. Increase Na excretions and hyperosmolarity of filtrate

50
Q

Loop diuretic examples

A

Furosemide and bumetanide

51
Q

Thiazide-like diuretics examples

A

Chlorthalidone, indapamide, hydrochlorothiazide

52
Q

Potassium sparing diuretics mechanisms

A

mineralocorticoid receptor blockers (aldosterone antagonists) or ENaC blockers

53
Q

Aldosterone antagonist examples

A

Spironolactone and eplerenone

54
Q

ENaC blockers examples

A

Amiloride and triamterene

55
Q

Proximal tubule handling of potassium

A

Paracellular reabsorption

56
Q

Loop of Henle handling of potassium

A

Reabsorption primarily via Na/K/2Cl cotransporters

57
Q

Principal cells in DCT and CD handling of potassium

A

excrete K following Na reabsorption

58
Q

Alpha-intercalated cells in CD handling of potassium

A

reabsorb K in exchange for H

59
Q

What dictates the net effect of potassium handling?

A

Relative handling by principal and alpha-intercalated cells

60
Q

Sodium reabsorption in PCT

A

apical surface has Na/K ATPase and Na/HCO3 symporter. Basolateral surface has Na/glucose symporter and Na/H exchanger

61
Q

Sodium reabsorption in LOH

A

has channels for Na to move freely. Also includes Na/K/2Cl pump on apical surface and Na/K ATPase on basolateral surface

62
Q

Sodium reabsorption in DCT

A

Na/Cl symporter on apical surface, Na/K ATPase on basolateral surface. Has Na/H exchanger and aldosterone-controlled Na/K exchanger on both surfaces

63
Q

Sodium reabsorption in CD

A

Na/H exchanger and aldosterone-controlled Na/K exchanger on both surfaces
