Clinical Integration Flashcards
3 types of ARF
Prerenal
Intrarenal
Postrenal
Condition wherein kidneys abruptly stop working but may eventually recover nearly normal function
Acute Renal failure
Type of ARF: results from decreased blood supply
Prerenal
Amount of blood received by the kidneys
1100 ml/min or 20-25% of cardiac output
When GFR IS _____, oxygen consumed is just to keep renal cells alive
Zero
When renal blood flow is severely low or prolonged, what happens to the renal cells?
They die
– proceed to intrarenal failure
Diminished urine output below the level of intake of water
Oliguria
Total cessation of urine output
Anuria
Type of ARF: abnormality that originate within the kidney and that abruptly diminished urine output
Intrarenal
Types of intrarenal ARF
Vascular
Tubular
Interstitial
Type of intrarenal ARF: conditions that injure glomerular cappilaries
Vascular
Type of intrarenal ARF: damages the renal tubular epithelium
Tubular
Type of intrarenal ARF: damages the renal interstitium
Interstitial
Type of ARF: abnormality that originate within the kidney and that abruptly diminished urine output
Intrarenal
