Test 2: Renal Flashcards
When GFR decreases, serum creatinine ___
increases. only becomes elevated after more than 2/3 of renal function destroyed
oliguria
small amts of urine norm 800-2000 ml/day
Uremia
having abnormal waste product , urea, in blood
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)
dec GFR, and urine output. happens very acutely within 48hrs. Elevated BUN, creatinine, and uric acid
Inc in serum creatinine of 0.3 mg/dl
oliguria <400 mL in 24hrs
decreased renal perfusion can be caused by (going to dec GFR)
hypercalcemia
NSAIDs + ACE Inhibitors
A GFR less than ____ for 3months or more is indicative of
60, CKD
AKI- Pre Renal caused by
decrease blood flow to kidney, volume depletion, dehydration
AKI- Pre Renal Labs
BUN: Creatinine >20:1
High: B/C, K+, P, Mg
Low: FENa <1%. pH (metabolic acidosis w/inc anion gap)
Urine Osmolality will be high bc retained Na so urine is concentrated
AKI- Intrinsic Renal si/sx
HTN, flank pain, fever all are common
AKI- Intrinsic Renal Labs
BUN: Creatinine <20:1
Urine Osmolality will be low bc dilute urine
High: B/C, K+, P, Mg, FENa: >2%
low: pH (metabolic acidosis w/inc anion gap)
Epithelial Casts
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Vasculature
Atheroembolic Renal Disease
Cause: emboli, anti coag tx, aortic aneurysm
Si: common ones for AKI intrinsic
Lab: Eosinophilia common, microscopic hematuria, proteinuria
TX: sx management, dialysis temp, surgery, no more invasive vascular procedures
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Vasculature
Renal Vein Thrombosis
casue: Nephrotic syndrome, renal cell cancer
Si: proteinuria, hematuria,
Lab: CT w/contrast
Tx: anticoag, tx cause
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Glomerulus
Glomerulonephritis Si/SX
mild edema, HTN, coke colored urine
Labs: RBC Casts
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Glomerulus
Glomerulonephritis - Post strep
MOSTLY KIDS
Cause: recent GAS infection of any kind
Labs: High- ASO titer / Low: C3 & C4 compliment
RBC casts, blood and protein
TX: supportive, dec diuretics
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Glomerulus
Glomerulonephritis - IgA nephropathy (Berger’s dz)
cause: IgA deposits in mesangium of glomeruli
Si: commonly asx but can have norm intrinsic renal sx
Labs: High- IgA. complement levels norm
Tx: supportive care, resolve on own
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Glomerulus
Glomerulonephritis - Henoch Schonlein Purpura
common Kids
cause: IgA deposition in affected tissues-vasculitis
affecting skin and mucous membranes
Si: rash on back of extremities THAT are PALPABLE
Labs: High- serum IgA level
Tx: ACE and diuretic. corticosteroids for renal disease
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Glomerulus
Glomerulonephritis- HUS
cause: Shigga Toxin
Sx: first abd pn N/V/D, HTN, Oliguria, GI bleed
Labs: High- bilirubin. proteinuria, Anemia thrombocytopenia
Tx: Supportive fluids, control HTN, transfusion
AKI: Intrinsic Renal- Interstitium
Acute Interstitial Nephritis
Cause: Drugs, NSAIDs
Labs: WBC Casts, Biopsy (to differentiate between ATN, glomerulonephritis and interstitial nephritis)
Tx: remove agent
