Chp 7- Urinary System Flashcards
3 nitrogenous wastes
Urea, creatinine, Uric acid
Function of kidney
- filter Nitrogenous waste
- balance water, electrolytes and acids
- release hormones
- degrade and eliminate hormones from blood stream
Hormones release by kidney (3)
Renin, Erythroprotein, Calciferol
Renin
enzyme important in adjusting BP
Erythroprotein
stimulates red blood cell production in bone marrow
Calciferol
active form of Vit D needed for absorption of calcium from intestine
How do kidneys produce urine
- blood enters from renals arteries
- Arterioles carry B to capillaries
- Glomeruli filter blood→Glomerular (bowman) capsule surrounding, renal tubule attached (combine to form nephron)
1. Capsule filtration (water, sugar, wastes, salts)
2. tubule reabsorption (water, sugar, sodium)
3. tubular secretion (acids, potassium, drugs)
Calyces or calices
small, cuplike regions of pelvis
catheter
tueb for injecting or removing fluid
cortex
outer region of an organ
hilum
depression in part or organ where blood vessels and nerves enter and leave
Meatus
opening or canal
medulla
inner region of an organ
nephron
functional unit of kidney where filtration, reabsorption, and secretion take place
trigone
triangular area in the urinary bladder

-uria
urination, urine condition
glomerulonephritis
inflammation of glomerus in kidney
interstitial nephritis
inflammation of connective tissue that lies b/w the renal tubules (real interstitial cells)
nephrolithiasis
kidney stones
nephrotic syndrome
signs and symptoms result in loss of urine
pyelonephritis
inflammation of renal pelvis and renal parakyma
renal failure
decrease secretion of waste b/c impaired function
renal hypertension
increase BP from kidney disease
Wilms tumor
malignant in childhood can be treated with surgery, radiation, chemo
Associated conditions of Bladder cancer
Diabetes insipidus (DI)
- ADH not secreted/resistance to it = h2o not reabsorbed by blood
- produce large amounts of dilute urine
Diabetes mellitus (DM)
- insuline
CT urography
cross-sectional views
KUB
kidney, uterus, bladder
- shows size
- x-ray w/ contrast
renal angiography
- w/contrast, diagnos obstruction or constriction of blood vessels
retrograde pyelogram
- x-ray for bladder, uterus, kidney
voiding cystourethrogram
w/ contrast of urinary bladder and urethra while patient voiding
lithotripsy
stones crushed
renal angioplasty
dilation of narrow areas in arteries
\
