22
Q

This disease is characterized by a rapid onset of necrosis of tubular epithelium with subsequent loss of renal function where tubular injury and decreased GFR leads to acute tubular necrosis

A

ATN

23
Q

Protein casts in urine (Tamm Horsfall protein)

A

ATN

24
Q

Aminoglycosides and IV contrast are very toxic to the kidneys and can cause what disease?

A

ATN

**aminoglycosides -> gentamycin, tobramycin

25
Q

Is this initiating, maintenance or recovery in the ATN stage?
Event that causes, no change in renal output

A

initiating

26
Q

Is this initiating, maintenance or recovery in the ATN stage?
Oliguria, renal flow slows to <400 mls of urine, starts within 24 hrs of initiating event

A

maintenance

27
Q

Is this initiating, maintenance or recovery in the ATN stage?
Increased urine output, up to 3 L, electrolyte disturbances at this time leads to increased risk of death

A

recovery

28
Q

This renal pathology is when microvascular changes in the capillaires of the kidneys result in accelerated degeneration and turnover of connective tissue

37
Q

What is emphysematous pyelonephritis?
