Renal Flashcards
Kidney sense hypoxia
Interstitial cells in peritubal caps secrete epo which stim rbc form in bone marrow, get increase o2 capacity
-epo sup inc harmonic kidney disease
Calcidiol to calcitriol
Proximal convoluted tubule via 1 a hydroxylase
Prostagladin
From paracrine cells, vasodilator afferent arterioles and increase filtration of blood
Renal protective
NSAIDs
Block prostaglandins get constriction afferent arterioles and decrease and gfr in low blood flow get renal failure
Dopamine
Proximal convoluted tube
Promotes natriuretic
Dilated arterioles
Increases glomerular filtration
At high doses vasoconstriction
Coma, malaise nausea and stupendous state seizures
Low sodium
Bradycardia, decreased DTN, hypotension with cardiac arrest, hypocalcemia
Increase mg
Arrhythmias, muscle weakness, widened qrs, peaked t waves
Potassium high
Twitching, tetany, seizures, prolonged qt
Low calcium
Bone low, osteomalacia, rickets
Low phosphate
Too much phosphate
Hypocalcemia, kidney stones
Flattened u wave t wave, arrhythmias, muscle cramps, weak
Low k
Kidney stones, abdominal pain, increased urinary frequency, anxiety, altered mental status
Elevated calcium
Elevated calcium
Stones, bones, groans, thrones, psychiatric overtones
Tetany, torsades, hypokalemia, hypocalcemia
Magnesium low
Uti presentation
Suprapubic pain
Dysuria
Increased urgency
Who gets uti
Women, diabetes, indwelling catheter, intercoarse
What causes uti
E. coli, klebsiella, proteus mirabilis-ammonia scent
-staph saphorphiticus
UA UTI
Nitrites-gram negative orgamins
Leukocytes
WBC UA but grow nothin in culture
Won’t grow gonorrhea of chlamydia so keep going
Coca Cola urine, subepithelial humps, positice anti dnase b , high streptolysin O titer
Post streptococcal glomerulonephritis
Streptolysin o titer
Group a strep-strep throat or impetigo
May occur after URI, purpura butt and leg, Berger disease igA
Iga nephropathy-henosch purpura
Defect in type IV collagen, cataracts, hematuria, high frequency hearing loss
