Q

UW. Prerenal AKI. treatment? 4

A

place catheter
if volume down -> iv fluids

Q

UW. Prerenal AKI. Cardiorenal syndrome mechanism. Left heart failure?

A

LHF –> decr. Sv, CO –> decr. renal perfusion –> dec. GRF (renal injury) –> RAAS activation –> SNS tone and incr. Na and H2O absorption –> back to the first point ie LFH
