Q

ATN patho

A
ischemia or nephrotoxin 
Inflammation and tubular injury
-> inflammatory cells
-> cast formation
-> tubular obstruction 
-> inc. tubular intra-luminal pressure 
-> tubular backleak, oliguria, dec. GFR
dec. O2 to outer medulla -> vasoconstriction

Q

CKD progressive process

A

chronic kidney disease -> chronic renal failure -> end-stage renal disease
- ESRD: requires dialysis
Linked with comorbidities
- HTN, DM

Q

GFR reduction occurs with

A

nephron loss

kidneys compensate until 75-80% of nephrons are damaged/nonfunctional

Q

Stage 4 CKD

A

planning for dialysis or transplant should begin

s/s very apparent

17
Q

Stage 5 CKD

A

Renal replacement therapy needed or death will ensue

18
Q

CKD risk factors

A
DMT2
HTN
recurrent pyelonephritis 
glomerulonephritis
polycysitic kidney disease
family hx 
exposure to toxins
>65
ethnicity: black, white, mexican-american 
electrolyte  and fluid imbalance
19
Q

stages of CKD according to nephron loss

A

dec. renal reserve
- <75% nephron loss
- no s/s, BUN/creatinine nml
Renal insufficiency
- 75-90% nephron loss
- polyuria, nocturia, slight in. BUN/creatinine
- control with diet and medication
End stage:
- >90% nephron loss
- azoztemia/uremia, fluid and electrolyte abnomal, osteodystrophy, anemia, dialysis or transplant needed.

20
Q

CKD and primary foci

A

appropriate management of ATN
blood glucose control
aggressive management of HTN

21
Q

HTN, cardiovascular disease, and CKD

A

Hypervolemia, escalated atherosclerosis, inc. RAAS/SNS activity
cardiovascular disease is both a risk factor and side effect of CKD

22
Q

metabolic acidosis and CKD

A

kidneys dont secrete H+
will be exchanged for intracellular K+
-> hyperkalemia and dec. pH
Kidney does not produce Bicarb -> dec. pH

23
Q

uremic syndrome

A

retention of metabolic wastes -> impaired healing

24
Q

electrolyte imbalance and CKD

A

retained K+, phosphorus, mag

loss Ca

25
Q

Bone and mineral disorders and CKD

A

inc. phosphorus and PTH -> bone/mineral metabolism
kidneys unable to reabsorb calcium
unable to activate Vit. D -> Ca only available from the bones

26
Q

malnutrition, pain, depression and CKD

A

hypoalbuminemia

27
Q

anemia and CKD

A

lack of erythopoietin (secreted by kidney in response to hypoxia)
uremia shortens RBC life

28
Q

dialyasis

A

remove metabolic wastes and correct fluid and electrolyte imbalances
primary reason: development of uremia or hyperkalemia unresponsive to other tx.

29
Q

extra-renal manifestations of CKD

A
HTN
- renin release r/t damaged kidney or inc. intravascular volume r/t abnormal handling of Na and H2O. 
Lungs and pleura: 
- chronic pulm. edema
Immune system:
- depressed, delayed immune response
GI: 
- N/V, and anorexia
Anemia
- dec. EPO, dec. RBC survival, poor nutrition, bleeding
Nervous system: 
- AMS, sensory and motor neuropathy common with uremia
