24
Q

precipitating factor causing nephrotic syndrome

Study These Flashcards
A

viral upper resp infection

25
S+S nephrotic syndrome
-*edema (high risk skin breakdown) -*hypoalbuminemia -*proteinuria -hyperlipidemia -hypovolemia -severe proteinuria -weight loss -pallor
26
Tx nephrotic syndrome
-*diet -corticosteroids -immunosuppression -diuretics -daily weights and skin care
27
Major disorder associated with a defect in ability to concentrate urine
nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI)
28
S+S NDI in newborn
-vomiting -fever -failure to thrive -hypernatremia
29
S+S NDI
-copious amounts dilute urine -growth retardation -hypernatremia -extreme thirst
30
Tx NDI
-fluid management -meds: hydrochlorothiazide, DDAVP -low Na diet
31
S+S hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS)
-acute kidney injury -hemolytic anemia -thrombocytopenia -D/V -anorexia, lethargic, irritable -bruising, purpura, rectal bleeding -elevated BUN and Cr -HTN -possible anuria/oliguria
32
causes HUS
-shiga toxin -e coli -shigella
33
Tx HUS
-fluid replacement -treat HTN -correct acidosis and electrolyte imbalances -early hemodialysis -possible blood transfusion -enteral nutrition
34
when would a kid with HUS need early hemodialysis
-anuric for 24 hrs -oliguric with uremia or HTN + seizures
35
3 types unexplained proteinuria
-transient (with illness, exercise, dehydration) -persistent (signifies renal disease) -orthostatic (needs more testing)
36
2 types renal failure
acute renal failure (ARF) chronic renal failure (CRF)
37
S+S acute renal failure
-*oliguria -azotemia -met acidosis -electrolyte disturbances (hyperkalemia, hyponatremia, hypocalcemia)
38
most common cause acute renal failure
transient renal failure from severe dehydration
39
possible complications of acute renal failure
-hyperkalemia -HTN -anemia -seizures -hypervolemia -cardiac failure with pulmonary edema
40
possible causes chronic renal failure
-congenital -recurrent UTIs -chronic pyelonephritis -chronic glomerulonephritis
41
3 types dialysis
-hemodialysis -peritoneal dialysis (PD) -hemofiltration
42
accumulation of nitrogenous waste in blood
azotemia
43
Tx hyperkalemia
calcium gluconate EKG monitoring
44
S+S chronic renal failure
-growth disturbance -anemia -low levels calcium and phosphorus -metabolic acidosis -hyperkalemia -water and sodium retention
45
S+S possible rejection from kidney transplant
-fever -swelling and tenderness over graft -diminished urinary output -elevated BP -elevated Cr -proteinuria, hematuria
46
Urethral opening is located below the glans penis or anywhere along the underside of the penile shaft
hypospadias
47
S+S inguinal hernia
-pain -abdominal distention -anorexia -difficulty with bowel movement
48
2 types hydrocele
communicating: fluid moves from abdominal cavity to scrotum non-communicating: fluid is enclosed
49
Tx hydrocele -communicating -non-communicating
communicating: surgery (usually leads to herniation) non-communicating: self-resolves
50
Failure of the testes to descend through the inguinal canal to the scrotum
cryptorchidism
51
3 types cryptorchidism
-abdominal -canalicular -ectopic
52
S+S cryptorchidism
-nonpalpable testis -affected side(s) appear small
53
Tx cryptorchidism -retractile testis -undescended testis
retractile: self-resolves undescended: -leutiniing hormone -avoid straddled toys -orchiplexy (surgery) between 1-2 yo
