Q

Phases of Acute kidney injury: Prerenal-

A
  • Decrease in renal blood flow caused by decreased circulating volume secondary to dehydration, hypotension, decreased CO, embolism, sepsis.
  • Prolonged hypotension
  • Prolonged low cardiac output
  • Prolonged volume depletion
  • Renovascular thrombosis

Q

Phases of Acute kidney injury: Intrarenal-

A
  • Due to disturbances within the glomerulus or renal tubules
  • Commonly called “Acute Tubular Necrosis”
  • Actual nephron damage with decreased glomerular filtration.
  • Kidney ischemia
  • Endogenous toxins
  • Exogenous toxins
  • Infection

Q

Phases of Acute kidney injury: Postrenal

A

Obstruction to urinary outflow from kidneys

- caused by obstructions such as Stenosis, Renal Calculi, Prostate disease, Bladder Obstruction or Infection.

AV access devices

  • Assess patency:
  • Palpate thrill
  • Auscultate bruit
