Renal 2018.2019 Flashcards
JAVMA 2019- Pyelocentesis is it more likely to be positive than an urine culture?
No: Not indicated to culture for ureteral obstruction as the same
JAVAM 2019 – Descried antegrade pyelography
Needle 22 ga 1.5 inch and add idonated postivie contrast then take radiographs
Good diagnostic tool for stricture/obstruction of ureters
with 1/49 severe complications
JVECC 2019 – What is the incidence of bacteruria in UO prior to and after catheterization
0 positive at time of placement
4/31 (13%) at 24 hours regardless of when u-cath removed
Urine pulled from line and may not represent clinical UTI
JVAMA 2019 – Does chondroitin sulfate increase when orally administered in the urine
When administered twice daily increased urine chondroitin sulfate. Does not increase more when given more frequently and does not buildup over one week.
AJVR 2019 What is the effect of glucosuria on USG
Glucosuria slightly increased USG, less so in more concentrated urine.
Stasticially but not clinically signficiant at all amounts of urine
JAVMA 2019 How does bladder flush effect rUO in hospital
Did not alter the rUO rate in hospital. Underpowered to determine differend from 19% (no flush) to 13% flush
Flushed til clear and used two different catheter sizes
JAVMA 2018 Ultrasound utility in diagnosis of ureteral obstruction in cats
Highly sensitive for ureteroliths but not strictures
good diagnostic tool. Strictures and blood clots misidentified as stones
JAVAM 2019 Balloon dilation of the urethra for UO due to urethial carcinoma
Successful in 9/12 cases on the first time. Caused dysuria. Fluroscopic guidance needed.
JVECC 2019 post morteum study of renal tubular vacularization what was noted to increase severity
Worse with increased creatinine at presentation and increasing doses of HES 670/0.75. Mannitol did not effect.
JVECC 2019 In a model of hypovolemia in greyhounds what fluid increased AKI biomarkers (uNGAL)
4% succinylate gelatin increased.
Fresh whole blood, HES 130/0.04, isotonic crystalloid no significant difference
JAVAM 2019 how can cystoscopy/cystourethroscpy treat benign macroscopic hemauria- list three differentials.
abalate
Hemangioma, angioma, telangiectasia
JVIM 2019 How can the USG be used to predict a UPC and how does bacteria play a role
With protienuria on dipstick the USG can not be used to determine the UPC.
Clear bacteria prior to interpreting UPC
JVIM 2019 What are the risks for Candida UTI in dogs and cats
On antibiotics in the previous 30 days.
Cats: History of lower urinary tract disease
NO EFFECT: hospitalization, catheterization, and immunosupresion
JIVM 2019 What is the variability in USG in first AM samples by dogs
Over the two weeks 0.015
Within in each week 0.009 and 0.010
JVIM 2019 What is the hemostatic function observed in dogs with AKI
AKI: have decreased platelet aggregation and display type II VW disease phenotype
Mechanism is attributed to abnormalities in platelet adhesion
JVIM 2019 What was noted with citrate in membrane therapeutic plasma exchange
Dogs with renal impairment not liver have higher accumulation
Hypocalcemia noted but did not note severe signes
JVIM 2019 What laboratory values changed in membrane therapeutic plasma exchange
Decreased protiens fibrinogen, bilirubin, urea, creatinine
JVIM 2019 What was the percentage of positive urine cultures in dogs with CKD and which were more likely to be positive.
32% positive only 8% where clinical
Female and isothenuria more likely to be positive
Presence of WBC on dipstick and bacteria more likely positive
