what is cast ?
solidifeid / coagulated proteins formed in the renal tubules
WBC cast where ?
pyelonephritis
RBC cast ?
AGN
Granular cast ?
Glomerulonephritis
hyaline cast ? n
normale
epithelial cast ?
RTN
uremia ????????/
excessive amount of creatinine + urea and other nitrogenous waste products in the blood
406
azotemia ?
inc of BUN
dec Cr
dec GFR
Serum Cr ?
0.7-1.4 mg/dl
what is creatinine ?
breakdown prodcuts of creatine phosphate
how to detect Cr clearnace ?
GFR
why serum Cr is more specific more RFT ?
serum Cr is more specific as it is produced from muscle at a constant rate
and almost completely filtered at the glomerulus
proteinuria ??
protein - albumin in urine
massive proteinuria ?
> 3.5 gm albumin
causes of massive proteinuria ?
neohrotic syndrome
Diabetic nephroapthy
lupus nephritis
amyloidosis
MM
toxemia of oragnancy
qualitative test to detect proteinuria ?
heat coagulation test
reagent strip test
quantitative test ?
esbachs albuminometer
sulpho-salicylic acid test
