ITE Renal, Urinary, Electrolytes Flashcards
How do you calculate FENA (the kidney’s ability to concentrate urine)?
Prerenal value
Intrinsic value
Postrenal value
(Pcr x Una) / (Pna * Ucr)) x 100
Prerenal value: <1%
- volume depletion state (renal tubules absorb Na and water in response)
Intrinsic value: >2%
- decreased ability of renal tubules to conserve sodium
Postrenal value: >4%
BUN varies (directly/indirectly) with GFR, but can also vary independently of GFR.
inversely
What is the BUN/Cr of
Prerenal
Intrinsic
Prerenal: >20:1
- vol depletion stimulated Na and H2O reabsortion, which also increases urea reabsorption
Intrinsic: <20 (ATN)
- renal damages reduce reabsorption of BUN
What is the Usodium of
Prerenal
Intrinsic
Prerenal: <20
- reabsorbed to enhance H2O reab.
Intrinsic: >20
- kidney is damaged and cannot abs as much Na
What are urea and creatinine
nitrogenous end products of metabolism
Dermatome level up to ___ is targeted for TURP procedures
T10 - sacral nerve roots
Prostate is innervated by ___ nerve roots
S2-3
Bladder sensation is supplied by the _____
hypogastric plexus, formed from T11-L2
Signs of bladder perforation in an awake pt intraop
- hypotension
- abd pain
- Shoulder pain (rupture into peritoneum irriates diaphragm)
- hiccups
TURP syndrome with
- Distilled water
- Glycine containing soln
- Distilled water: severe hyponatremia and hypoosmolar
- Glycine containing soln: blindness (glycine is transformed into ammonium)
What dermatome lvl for each:
The xiphoid process
The terminal point of the 12th rib
T6
Large molecules are unable to pass through semipermeable membrane used for HD and not removed. What products will you see elevated following?
Albumin + prealbumin
*urea, Cr, all the electrolytes can cross
Independent risk factors for post op AKI in noncardiac sx
Age >59 BMI >32 Chronic Liver Disease COPD req chronic bronchodilators Emergency/High risk sx PVD
ACEi stop production of ______ and subsequently decrease remodeling of the heart induced by ____ receptor stimulation
Angiotensin II
AT1
- cardiomyocyte hypertrophy
- proliferation
- fibrosis
Angiotensin II results in _______ through AT1 receptors
Increased
- Inotropy
- Chronotropy
- Catecholamine release
- Aldosterone
- Vasopressin
- Cardiac remodeling
________ slows vasospasm and causes upper extremity vasodilation better than other types of anesthesia for AV fistula creation
Brachial plexus blockade
- better than local, GA, MAC
Fentanyl is metabolized through what?
CYT P450 3A4
Partially renally excreted medications that may need to be adjusted
- Anticholinesterase (Neostigmine, edrophonium, pyridostigmine)
- Muscle relaxants (Rocuronium, Vecuronium)
- Anticholinergics
_____ is a more reliable measure of renal function (and imminent AKI), and does not depend on age or presence of a steady-state.
Creatinine clearance
CCr = (Urine Cr * Urine Vol) / Plasma Cr
*2 hour urine collection
What is the GFR for Normal kidneys: Stage one kidney disease: Stage two Stage three Stage four Stage Five (ESRD)
Stage one (normal): >90 mL/min Stage two: 60-89 mL/min Stage three: 30-59 mL/min Stage four: 15-29 mL/min Stage Five (ESRD): <15 mL/min
