Q

Kidney Functions

KNOW BOLD!!!

A

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.

Q

Pathogenesis of Kidney Disease

Angiotensin II NORMAL function?

A
  • Vasoconstriction of arterioles and arteries
  • *Must keep pressure adequate for filtration of blood
    • AKA→ manages blood pressure for adequate filtration***

Q

Angiotensin II attracts __________ and this changes structure of the glomerulus in kidney*

aka NOT helpful in kidney disease!

A

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!

Q

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!

A
  • 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*

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_!!!
26
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!!!**
27
Physical Activity Promotion in CKD ## Footnote **_Instead_ of HR….USE \_\_\_\_\_-**
RPE\*\*\*\*
28

Skeletal Changes in CKD \*\*\*\***SEE FIG. 18-7, GOODMAN, P.971** **GFR, Phosphate retention, Calcitrol** **This is what you think of _initially_ as soon as you see “Skeletal changes in CKD”**
DEC GFR INC Phosphate retention DEC Calcitrol **Know this!!!!!!!**
33
Skeletal Changes in CKD ## Footnote **DEC GFR, INC phosphate retention, DEC calcitrol** **_Explain_ the cascade of events that follows!** **BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN VERBATIM!!!**
1. Changes **impair** **normal processes of bone mineralization** 2. **Parathyroid hormone (PTH) _mobilizes_ calcium from SK system to “help”→** mobilizes all this Ca+ bc thinks its doing good and helping! 3. Results→ **HypERphosphatemia** and **HypERcalcemia** **\*\*Progression of vicious cycles leads to _Bone Turnover_**===\> rickets, osteomalacia, osteopenia, soft tissue calcification

47
Renal Cell Carcinoma RCC: ## Footnote **Clinical Presentation** **_Metatstatic sites:_ in order**
* **Lungs→** regional lymph nodes→ bone→ liver
48
Renal Cell Carcinoma RCC: ## Footnote **More clinical presentation**
* 50% cases discovered **incidentally** bc renal cx's are **silent** * NON-specific sx's→ malaise, anemia, wt loss * Fever, HTN, hepatic dysf and hypERcalcemia occur bc **hormone production by tumors** * 25-30% have metastatic dis by time of dx→ **5yr survival of 0-7% in presence of mult. mets**
49
Renal Cell Carcinoma: **Summary of Medical Mx:** ## Footnote **PRIMARY FEATURE**
Renal parenchymal mass
50
Renal Cell Carcinoma: **Summary of Medical Mx:** ## Footnote **PRIMARY TX:**

DEPTH of Tissue invasion
63
TNM explained:
* **T (Tumor) =** how far the main (primary) **Tumor** has grown thru the bladder wall AND whether it has grown into nearby tissues * **N (Nodes) =** any cx spread to lymph **nodes** near the bladder * **M (Metastasized) =** if cx has spread to _distant sites_ (mets)
64
TNM: T=
Tumor
65
TNM N=
Nodes
66
TNM M=
Metastases
67
Bladder Cx Staging: ## Footnote **T= Tumor** **T1 vs T2**
**74% of bladder tumors= T1 or T2** * **T1→** tumors thru **basement memb.** and **invaded into submucosa/lamina propria** but NOT muscularis propria * **T2→** tumors invade muscular propria
68
Bladder Cx Staging ## Footnote **N= Nodes** **N0, N1, N2**
* **N0→** NO involvement * **N1→** nodes **near** bladder * **N2→** nodes **further** **away**
69
Bladder Cx Staging: ## Footnote **M= Mets** **Order for mets???**
Lung→ Liver→ Bone ## Footnote **LLB!!!!**
