Q

Pyelonephritis

A

Inflammation of upper urinary tract/kidneys

28
Q

Glomerulonephritis pathophys

A

Formation of immune complexes (antigen/antibody) in the circulation with subsequent deposition in glomerulus
Antibodies produced against the organism that cross-react with the glomerular endothelial cells
Activation of complement
Recruitment and activation of immune cells and mediators

29
Q

Glomerulonephritis treatment

A

Steroids, cytotoxic agent

30
Q

Structure that facilitates reabsorption of bicarbonate

A

Distal tubule

31
Q

In addition to relieving pain, rapid removal of an urinary tract obstruction is important, because the accumulating urine cause back pressure that (kills, hyperstimulates) renal cells.

32
Q

When one kidney develops irreversible damage, the other kidney (makes additional nephrons, undergoes hypertrophy of existing glomeruli and tubules)

A

Undergoes hypertrophy of existing glomeruli and tubules

33
Q

Obstruction to urine flow in the lower urinary tract include obstruction of the _____ in men and prolapse of the _____ in women.

A

Prostate; bladder

34
Q

An alkaline urinary pH significantly increases the risk for (calcium phosphate, uric acid) stone formation, where as acidic urine increases the risk for a (calcium phosphate, uric acid) stone

A

Calcium phosphate; uric acid

35
Q

Urinary stones, also called _____, most commonly are composed of _____ salts, but may have a different composition depending on the person’s risk factors and the characteristics of the urine

A

Uroliathisis; calcium

36
Q

The sites where urinary stones are most likely to obstruct the urinary system are at the _____ and _____

A

Pelvic ureter junction (aka ureteropelvic junction) and vesicoureter junction (aka vesico-uretic junction)

37
Q

The most common type of urinary stone

A

Calcium oxalate

38
Q

Associated with gout

39
Q

Mineral associated with staghorn formation in kidney pelvis

40
Q

On assessment of the patient with renal calculi passing down the renal ureter, the nurse would expect the patient to report?

A

Severe, colicky back pain radiating to the groin

41
Q

True or false: Acute pyelonephritis causes progressive destruction of nephrons resulting in chronic renal insufficiency

42
Q

True or false: In a patient with acute pyelonephritis, an IVP may be performed after the infection is resolved to evaluate the urinary system for abnormalities

43
Q

True or false: Diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis always requires a urine culture and sensitivity test

44
Q

True or false: Following initial treatment of acute pyelonephritis, the patient must have a follow-up CBC

A

False, also need to include culture

45
Q

The process of urination

A

Micturition

46
Q

Red blood cells in the urine

47
Q

The bladder wall muscle

48
Q

Accumulations of precipitated material in the urine that have a cylindrical shape like a mold of a section of tubule

49
Q

Precipitated material in the urine that increase as urine cools

50
Q

The area of the bladder between the openings of the ureters and the urethra

51
Q

White blood cells in the urine

52
Q

Small openings in the glomerular endothelium called _____ are maintained by vascular endothelial growth factor secreted by the _____

A

Protein; concentrate

55
Q

Blood entering the peritubular capillaries has (low, high) hydrostatic pressure and (low, high) oncotic pressure, which facilitates (secretion, reabsorption) of fluid from the proximal convoluted tubules.

A

Low; high; reabsorption

56
Q

Dilation of a ureter by accumulated urine

A

Hydroureter

57
Q

Enlargement of the renal pelvis and calyces by accumulated urine

A

A

Retrograde up the urethra; retrograde up the ureter

63
Q

64
Q
