37
Q

IDPN - Intradialytic Parenteral Nutrition

A

PN during dialysis for pts not tolerating PO sups (not covered by medicare or insurance companies). pts don’t want NG tube. most centers use standard PN formulas w/AAs, lipid, & glucose. Add insulin to PN for DM.

38
Q

(PDK) Polycystic Kidney Disease: onset

A

hereditary, mostly 30-40 yrs.

usually produce enough erythropoietin, not anemic

39
Q

PKD: s/s & mgmt

A

hematuria, proteinuria, infection, flank pain

mgmt: nephrectomy, no salt/fluid restriction (may need salt w/high urine output).

meds: SAMSCA (tolvaptan) - Tx hyponatremia & slows progression.
Naringenin may slow progress.

40
Q

(AGN) Acute Glomerulonephritis: onset

A

rapid, children 3-21 yrs who had a beta hemolytic group A strep infection

41
Q

AGN: s/s

A

hematuria, albuminuria, oliguria, azotemia, hypertension, edema

42
Q

AGN: mgmt

A

bed rest, antibiotics, Na & fluid restrict if severe edema & HTN, diuretics, BP meds

43
Q

Glomerulonephritis

A

many types, chronic/acute. diffuse inflammatory changes in glomerulus in nephron (glomerulus is where urine production begins)

44
Q

(CGN) Chronic Glomerulonephritis

A

glomeruli and tubules are progressively destroyed

45
Q

CGN: possible causes

A

diseases such as sickle cell, AGN, lupus, nephrosis, diabetic nephropathy, idiosyncratic

46
Q

CGN: detection

A

may be asymptomatic and detected d/t proteinuria/albuminuria

47
Q

CGN: progress to

A

nephrotic syndrome, CKD, ESRD.

progress may be slowed by anti inflammatory meds, BG & BP control in DM, low protein diet

48
Q

nephrotic syndrome: cause

A

idiopathic or as a phase of CGN/CKD

49
Q

nephrotic syndrome: s/s

A
proteinuria w/ 3.5-30g protein/day in urine. 
hyperlipidemia and lipiduria.
polyuria/polydipsia/oliguria.
low plasma albumin.
hypertension, edema.
weakness/lethargy/muscle wasting.
hypercoagulopathy.
50
Q

nephrotic syndrome: meds

A

control edema & hypertension w/loop diuretics like lasix (furosemide), antihypertensives like ACE inhibitors (benazepril (lotensin), ramipril (altace))

also restriction fluid and sodium.

51
Q

nephrotic syndrome: mgmt

A

monitor plasma electrolytes.
restrict sat fat and may need a statin med.
some pts respond to steroid therapy, immunosuppressants.

52
Q

nephrotic syndrome: protein

A

0.7-0.8g pro/kg IBW/day + 1g pro/g urinary protein.

high protein diet will not affect low albumin and too much pro increases proteinuria.

53
Q

Alport’s syndrome

A

hereditary, damages kidneys and eyes, may cause deafness

54
Q

BUN dialysis target value

A

60-90 mg/dL is acceptable for dialysis pt, 40-85 mg/dL

normal person <20

55
Q

CKD stages BUN

A

1: 10-26 mg/dL
4: 30-60 mg/dL
5: 60-100 mg/dL

56
Q

creatinine normal value

A

0.2-1.2

target < 1.2 mg/dL

57
Q

CKD stages creatinine

A

4: 2-6 mg/dL
5: 6-10 mg/dL

58
Q

creatine levels vs. kidney damage

A

0.6-1.5 mg = up to 50% nephron loss
1.6-4.6 mg = over 50%
4.7-9.9 mg = up to 75%
> 10 mg = 90% (ESRD)

Q

when is dialysis needed

A

BUN > 80 mg/dL

creatinine > 8.0 mg/dL

60
Q

iPTH target range

A

150-300 pg/mL, 150-650 pg/dL

61
Q

high iPTH will

A

promote bone turnover and osteodystrophy

62
Q

low iPTH may be present in

A

adynamic bone disease (lowering of vit D & Ca therapy will be needed)

63
Q

K/DOQI corrected total serum Ca

A

parameter target range

8.4-9.4 mg/dL

64
Q

K/DOQI Ca x P

A

< 55

65
Q

K/DOQI serum Phosphorus

66
Q

K/DOQI serum HCO3

A

> 22 mEq/L

67
Q

corrected Ca

A

.8 * (4 - pt alb) + serum Ca = corrected Ca

68
Q

Ca x P

A

corrected Ca * Phos = product

should not > 55

69
Q

volume conversions

A

1 c = 8 oz = 240 ml = 240 cc

1 oz = 30 ml

70
Q

absorption of glucose from dialysate (peritoneal glucose absorption)

ex. rate 5 L of 3% glucose solution: 3% = 3g/100ml or 30 g/L

5L * 30 g/L = 150 g/day * 3.4 kcal/g (glucose monohydrate) * 80% (glucose absorbed in dialysate) = 408 kcal

71
