Q

explain the Pain in kidney diseases and its mechanism

A

–Pain
* During the questioning it is necessary to establish:
* localization of pain
* irradiation of pain
* character
* duration
* intensity
* provoking factors
* factors that relieve pain
* accompanying symptoms Pain
* In various kidney diseases, the nature, intensity and
duration of pain depend on a combination of three main
mechanisms:
1) muscle spasm of the ureter;
2) stretching of the renal cavity system (pyelocaliceal);
3) stretching renal capsule.

Q

explain the Urolithiasis disease Pain

A

(local spasm of the smooth muscles of the ureter, with obstruction of the ureter with a stone - stretching of the
renal pelvis with urine)
- acute paroxysmal pain (renal colic)
- pain intense, unbearable
- localization - in the lower back or along the ureter, radiating to the inguinal region, to the genitals

Q

explain the Diuresis

A

–total amount of urine, excreted during 24 hours’ period is called diurnal urine excretion.
-Diuresis: is a condition in which the kidneys filter too much bodily fluid. That increases your urine production and the frequency with which you need to use the bathroom.
–Its volume ranges from 1000 to 2000 ml, though it
can increase or decrease depending on
physiological conditions, the amount of consumed
liquids, diet, nature of work, temperature, air
humidity or presence of some diseases. 60-80% of
the daily urine amount normally excretes during
the daytime - a period between 8 AM and 8 PM.
Diurnal urinal excretion may decrease in physical
exertion, hot weather or abundant perspiration

Q

explain the Polyuria

A

–Polyuria (> 2000 mL/day voided) may be caused by
1-renal origin - with damage to the renal tubules; in
the recovery stage of acute renal failure
2-extrarenal origin - with abundant fluid intake,
diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus, at low
ambient temperatures, with a decrease in edema
after taking diuretics.

Q

explain the Oliguria

A

–decrease in daily urine (<500 ml / day) duo to :
1-physiological oliguria (not less than 800 ml per day) -
limited drinking regimen, increased sweating, physical
activity
2-profuse diarrhea, uncontrollable vomiting, fluid
retention in patients with heart failure, burn disease
(shock stage), shock (of any etiology)
3-impaired renal function (glomerulonephritis, uremia,
etc.)

Q

explain the Anuria

A

–a sharp decrease (<50 ml per day) or complete cessation of urine excretion
* Secretory anuria: marked disorder of
glomerular filtration (shock, acute blood loss
- a sharp drop in filtration pressure in the
glomeruli; uremia - death of more than 70- 80% of nephrons)

16
Q

explain the Nocturia

A
  • voiding during the night duo to :
    1-various kidney diseases,
    2-prostatic hypertrophy,
    3- heart failure
17
Q

explain the Ishuria

A
  • Excretory anuria (ishuria):
    impaired separation of urine with preserved renal function
  • paresis of the bladder
    muscles, an increase in the size of the prostate gland,
    urethral stricture.
18
Q

explain the Stranguria

A
  • Stranguria - soreness during urinating (a
    sign of inflammation of the bladder and / or
    urethra)- painful urination
  • Pain appears at the end of urination (with
    maximum bladder contraction) with (cystitis-bladder )
  • Pain appears at the beginning and during
    urination with (urethritis)
19
Q

explain the Pollakiuria, oligakiuria

A
  • Norma: urination frequency - 4-7 times per day
  • Pollakiuria - frequent urination (intake of large amounts of
    fluid, inflammation of the urinary tract, severe prostate
    adenoma)
  • Oligaciuria is a rare urination (limited fluid intake, the
    formation and strengthening of edema of any origin due to
    fluid retention in the body; significant extrarenal fluid loss -
    intense sweating, indomitable vomiting, diarrhea; oliguria
    with glomerulonephritis, uremia)
20
Q

explain the Discoloration of urine

A

–urine of red-brown color or red (admixture of
blood) - with glomerulonephritis, urolithiasis, kidney tumor;
–pale yellow (almost colorless) - with polyuria;
–clouded - from admixture of leukocytes, mucus, blood.

21
Q

explain the Hematuria (blood in the urine)

A

—-Painless
-cancer of the urinary tract
-glomerunephritis
- prostatic disease
-polycystic disease ( ovum syndrome long period ) ,
- hydronephrosis ( stretch of one of the kidneys or both
—-Painful
-ureteral calculi ( stones in the ureteral )
-bladder infections or lithiasis.

22
Q

explain the Edema

A
  • Pathogenesis:
  • 1) a decrease in oncotic pressure of the plazma
    as a result of a decrease in the total amount of
    blood protein (albumin);
  • 2) increased capillary permeability;
  • 3) activation of the RAAS, which occurs when
    the pulse pressure decreases in the renal arteriole-carrying glomeruli;
  • 4) decrease in glomerular filtration
  • Renal edema first appears on the face, on the eyelids, under the eyes
  • in the morning “Face nephritis”; in the future they can spread to the body, sometimes anasarca can develop, fluid can accumulate in the cavities (abdominal, pleural, pericardial); combined with pallor of the skin, complaints of thirst, decrease in urine output.
    —Edema in renal diseases including generalized -
    anasarca (with glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, renal failure)
23
Q

explain the Headache, dizziness, pain in the heart,
palpitations, shortness of breath in the renal dieses

A
  • due to an increase in blood pressure. Arterial
    hypertension is often found in kidney disease
    (glomerulonephritis, chronic pyelonephritis). There
    is often a significant increase in BP, especially
    diastolic.
24
explain the Fever
* occurs in inflammatory diseases of the kidneys, urinary tract (pyelonephritis, paranephritis, cystitis, urethritis). The reason for the increase temperature can be also tuberculosis kidney, kidney cancer - less often.
25
explain the Arterial hypertension in kidney disease
* 1) parenchymal (chronic glomerulo- and pyelonephritis( kidney infection) , diabetic nephropathy, nephrocarcinoma, polycystic kidney disease); * 2) Vasorenal hypertension renal artery stenosis
26
explain the Uremia (urine in the blood)
* a toxic condition associated with excessive accumulation in the blood of protein metabolism by-products * GFR glomerular filtration rate declines to < 15 -30 ml\min * disturbances of multiple organ systems
27
Examination of the abdomen
* On examination of the abdomen, asymmetry (large kidney cysts, hydronephrosis, large kidney tumor) can be seen. * Examination of the kidney and bladder area reveals: 1- swelling in the lumbar region - with paranephritis; 2-swelling in the suprapubic region - with a full bladder.

28
Kidney – percussion
--kidney - percussion (to detect areas of tenderness by costovertebral test, normally will feel a thudding sensation or pressure but not tenderness) and palpation (contour, size, tenderness, and lump) - in adult ordinary(usually) it won’t be palpable because of their deep location. -Presence of tenderness and pain indicates a kidney infection or polycystic kidney disease ( acute infraction or polytnephritits)
29
Bladder percussion
* Percussion you can determine dullness above the pubis from a full bladder. -Percussion will be introduced from the navel from top to bottom along the midline, the finger plessimeter is set perpendicular to the anterior midline.
30
Anterior ureteric points
* 1/superior ureteric point - at the edge of the rectus abdominis muscle at the level of the umbilicus * 2/medium ureteric point - at the intersection of the biiliac line and the vertical line passing the pubic tubercle
31
Posterior ureteric points
1-costovertebral point - in the angle formed with the inferior edge of 12-th rib and a columna vertebralis; 2-costolumbar point – at the intersection of lumbar muscle and 12-th rib. --Pressure in these points in norm routinely painless becomes sharply responsive at a pyelonephritis, a paranephritis, a nephrolithiasis, a tumor and tuberculosis of kidneys.
32
Palpation of the kidneys
* Normally, the kidneys usually do not palpate. * In pathology, the kidneys are palpable due to their increase (tumor, polycystic) or omission (nephroptosis)
