Renal - PowerPoint/1 Flashcards
nephrotic or nephritic syndrome - HTN
nephritic
inflammation of the glomerulus
flomerulonephritis
glomerulonephritis blood tests results reveal elevated what
6
- serum urea
- creatinine
- anti-DNase B
- strept Abs
- antistreptolysin
- antistreptokinase
increased renin secretion and decreased GFR leads to
increased BP
nephrotic or nephritic syndrome - azotemia
nephritic
glomerulonephritis leads to elevated BP that is caused by
2
increased renin secretion and decreased GFR
nephrotic or nephritic syndrome - hyperlipidemia and lipiduria
nephrotic
glomerulonephritis - urine becomes
2
dark
cloudy
oliguria, HTN, and edema are sx of
glomerulonephritis
hyperlipidemia and lipiduria
nephrotic syndrome
oliguria, HTN, and variable proteinuria is to
nephritic syndrome
glomerulonephritis mechanism of injury - deposition of circulating what?
soluble Ag-Ab complexes, often with complement fragments (type III hypersensitivity)
nephrotic syndrome protein excretion is caused by
glomerular injury
nephritic syndrome proteinuria value
< 3g/day
glmerulonephritis can be caused by
5
- immunology
- drugs/toxins
- vascular disorders
- systemic disease (secondary)
- viral
vit D def is to
nephrotic syndrome
nephrotic or nephritic syndrome - oliguria
nephritic
glomerulonephritis drug tx
2
- glucocorticoids for inflammation
2. antihypertensives
hypoalbuminemia with edema
nephrotic syndrome
nephritic syndrome sx
5
- hematuria
- azotemia
- oliguria
- HTN
- variable proteinuria
glomerulonephritis mechanisms of injury include
3
- deposition of Ag-Ab complexes into basement membrane
- Abs acting against Ags planted in the glomerulus
- non immune factors i.e. drugs, toxins, ischemia
elevated serum urea and creatinine levels are signature for
glomerulonephritis
