Q

what is the Glasgow Blatchford Score?

A

The Glasgow Blatchford Score is a system used to risk stratify patients with upper GI bleeds - this means that it considers factors that may indicate a more severe bleed.

involves: Haemoglobin , Urea , Systolic blood pressure , Gender , Heart rate, Melaena, History of syncope, History of hepatic disease, cardiac failure

Q

what are the AKI criteria

A

Improving Global Outcomes’ (KDIGO) criteria defines AKI based on one of the following parameters:

An increase in serum creatinine by ≥ 26.5 micromol/L within 48 hours
An increase in serum creatinine to ≥ 1.5 times baseline within 7 day
Urine output < 0.5 mL/kg/hr for six hours

20
Q

define AKI parameter for stage 1,2,3

A

stage 1
An increase in serum creatinine by ≥ 26.5 micromol/L within 48 hours
or
An increase in serum creatinine to ≥ 1.5 times baseline
or
Urine output < 0.5 mL/kg/hr for 6 hours

stage 2
An increase in serum creatinine to ≥ 2-3 times baseline
or
Urine output < 0.5 mL/kg/hr for 12 hours

stage 3
An increase in serum creatinine to ≥ 3 times baseline
or
An increase in serum creatinine by ≥ 354
or initiated on RRT
or
Urine output < 0.3 mL/kg/hr for 24 hours

21
Q

CKD classification

A

stage 1: GFR >90 mild damage

stage 2: 60-89 GFR mild damage

stage 3a: 45-59 GFR moderate damage, dont work as well as should

stage 3b: 30-44 GFR moderate damage, dont work as well as should

stage 4: 15-29 GFR severe damage, close to not working

ate 5: <15 GFR, severe damage, renal failure

- higher cerebral dysfunction eg. dysphasia

partial anterior circulation stroke is 2/3 of the above

lacunar syndrome (small perforating arteries)
