Renal Disease-ALL Flashcards
Functional unit of the kidney
Nephron
Functional Unit of Kidney: Nephron
Includes 3 components:
- Glomerulus
- Renal tubules
- Collecting duct
Kidney Functions
KNOW BOLD!!!
Removes metabolic waste products and excess water FROM the body***
- Excretes metabolic wastes and foreign chemicals
- Gluconeogenesis* in times of fasting*
- Acid-base balance
- Water and electrolyte balances
- Arterial blood pressure
- Secretion, metabolism, excretion of hormones
- Regulation body fluid osmolality and electrolyte conc.
Pathogenesis of Kidney Disease
DM and renal tissue damage?
DM→ HypERglycemia→ Renal tissue damage***
Pathogenesis of Kidney Disease
Angiotensin II NORMAL function?
- Vasoconstriction of arterioles and arteries
-
*Must keep pressure adequate for filtration of blood
- AKA→ manages blood pressure for adequate filtration***
Angiotensin II attracts __________ and this changes structure of the glomerulus in kidney*
aka NOT helpful in kidney disease!
Attracts inflammatory cells!
Cascade→
- Cytokines, growth factors released
- Changes structure of glomerulus
-
=> REDUCED surface area for filtration***
- SO…we don’t want TOO MUCH angiotensin II***
NOTE: this is ALL due to the inflammation!
Renal Disease
Initial Sx’s
Anorexia, malaise, pruritus (itchy), dry skin, wt. loss
NOTE: Sx’s may NOT appear until kidney function <1/10 normal***
Renal Disease Sx’s
W/ Progression of Dis.
drowsy/confusion, change skin pigment, excessive thirst, insomnia, edema, peripheral neuropathy (notice trend, LOTS of things can cause this!!! remember this is a circulation/filtration problem so makes sense!!!)
Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease
NOTE: happens slow, 5 stages. In ea, kidneys don’t work as well as the stage before. W/ tx and lifestyle changes, YOU CAN help slow or stop kidney dis. from getting worse!
-
Stage 1→ Kidney damage w/ normal kidney function
- GFR= 90 or higher
-
Stage 2→ Kidney damage w/ mild loss of kidney function
- GFR= 89-60
-
Stage 3a→ Mild-Moderate loss of kidney function
- GFR= 59-45
-
Stage 3b→ Mod-Severe loss of kidney function
- GFR= 44-30
-
Stage 4→ Severe loss of kidney function
- GFR= 29-15
-
Stage 5→ Kidney failure*
- GFR= LESS THAN 15*
Stage 1 Kidney Disease
Kidney damage w/ normal function
GFR = 90-100
Stage 2 Kidney Disease
Kidney damage w/ mild loss of kidney function
GFR= 89-60
Stage 3a Kidney Disease
Mild-Moderate loss of kidney function
GFR= 59-45
Stage 3b Kidney Disease
Mod-Severe loss of kidney function
GFR= 44-30
Stage 4 Kidney Disease
Severe loss of kidney function
GFR= 29-15
Stage 5 Kidney Disease
Kidney failure
GFR= Less than 15*
What does GFR # tell you?
HOW much kidney function you have. As kidney disease gets WORSE, GFR # goes DOWN***
Chronic Kidney Disease
READ THIS RESOURCE!!!!
USE!!!!!!
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Most COMMONLY caused by:
DM and HTN
CKD aka
End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) → Stage 5*
CKD
End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)→ Stage 5
- FINAL stage of CKD
- <10% kidney function
- REQUIRES dialysis or transplant*
-
HIGH mortality rate
- 65yrs on dialysis== 7x risk of death*
- 60yrs starting dialysis== life expect. 5 yrs (normal=20)
CKD aka ______ aka ______
End-stage renal disease aka Stage 5
CKD
Risk factors, Sx’s to consider w/ PT
-
Risk factors:
- hereditary defects of kidneys, UTI, age, excess use analgesics
-
Sx’s of renal failure to consider w/ PT:
- Anemia, Diminished O2 transport*, DECd ability to maint. blood volumes
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Comorbid w/ _____ and ______ ===== what?
Comorbid w/ HTN and heart disease
=> Significant precautions for exercise programs****
CKD
Comorbid w/ HTN and heart disease==> Sig. precautions for exercise programs
Recommended Activities→
- 40-70% target HR (USE RPE**)
- self-paced walking, TM, cycle erg
- 4-6x/week
- LOW intensity, Goal→ work up to 30mins activity
CKD
*remember requires dialysis or transplant
Can a Pt Exercise on Dialysis?
Rule to follow if PT AFTER DIALYSIS
PRIORITIZE YOUR EXERCISES/INTERVENTIONS!!!
MOST IMPORTANT THINGS FIRST!!!
CKD
*remember requires dialysis or transplant
Can a Pt Exercise on Dialysis?
PRIORITIZE!
- TM, cycle erg, bed/chair ex’s
- physical and cardiopulm function
- *INC exercise on NON-dialysis days→ you’ll have better luck w/ them!!!
Physical Activity Promotion in CKD
Instead of HR….USE _____-
RPE****
Promotion of Phys Activity in CKD
-
VITALS ARE VITAL!
- BP and RPE
- Long warmup (when approp.)→ aerobic, strength
- Cool-down
- return of fluid and BP
- RPE NOT HR***
