glomerular filtration rate
GFR is what
amount of filtrate formed in each minute
only ___mL of the 125mL formed each minute is excreted in urine
1mL
what happens to the rest of the 124mL
reabsorbed in tubules
what is the average urine output
60mL/hr
what is the bare minimum of urine output
30mL/hr
what percent of all reabsorptive and secretory processed occur in the proximal tubule
65%
renal threshold
plasma level at which the substance appears in urine
sometimes the renal threshold exceeds the ___________ ____________
transport mechanism
an example of renal threshold exceeding transport mechanism is in diabetics when _____mg/minute spills into urine
320
where do loop diuretics work
loop of Henle
ADH maintains _____________ volume by returning water to vascular compartment
extracellular
ADH is associated with what system
RAA
_________________ in hypothalamus sense increase in osmolality of extracellular fluids and stimulates the release of _____ from the posterior pituitary
osmoreceptors, ADH
where are osmoreceptors located at
hypothalamus
ADH is also known as
vasopressin
without ADH _________ channels are closed, tubular cells lose water permeability and dilute urine is formed
water
what innervates renal
SNS
if you are in hypovolemic shock will there be any flow to the kidneys
no
what 3 substances produce vasoconstriction of renal vessels
Angiotensin II, ADH, endothelins
what 3 substances dilate renal vessels
dopamine, nitric oxide, prostaglandins
_______________ __________ represents feedback control system linking GFR with renal blood flow
juxtaglomerular complex
juxtaglomerular complex controls the release of
renin
what does the juxtaglomerular complex link
GFR with renal blood flow
what are three values that measures kidneys function
GFR, creatine, BUN
creatinine is a product of
creatine metabolism in muscles
is the release of creatinine constant or not
constant
creatinine is freely filtered in glomeruli and is it or is it not reabsorbed from tubules
not reabsorbed from tubules
creatinine serum levels depend closely on
GFR
creatinine is used as a measure of
renal function
regulation of NA and K
- aldosterone
- atrial natriuretic peptide
- ADH
atrial natriuretic peptide
synthesized in the muscle cells of atria and released with atria are stretched; vasodilatation of arterioles, inhibits NA reabsorption
regulation of pH in kidney conserves and eliminates what
conserves HCO3
eliminates H+
kidney uric acid elimination. what drug competes and what drugs affect
ASA competes, diuretics affect
urea elimination is a product of ____________ metabolism
protein
normal urea production by an adult
25-30 G/day
urea qualities rises with increased intake, tissue breakdown and
GI bleeding
RAA: renin is released in response to
- decrease in renal blood flow
- change in composition of distal tubular fluid
- SNS stimulation
erythropoietin is what kind of hormone
polypeptide
what does erythropoietin regulate
differentiation of RBC in bone marrow
where is erythropoietin majority produced
kidney (89-95%)
WHAT IS THE STIMULUS FOR PRODUCTION OF ERYTHROPOEITIN
TISSUE HYPOXIA
why is tissue hypoxia the stimulus for production
to produce more red blood cells in the chance to get more oxygen
if your kidney is not functioning will it still produce erythropoietin
NO
where does the activation of Vitamin D occur
in kidney
vitamin D is needed to increase ______ absorption from GI tract
Ca
does vitamin D need to be activated before it is used
yes
what is the preferred type of urine sample
first voided and fresh
Casts
molds of distal nephron lumen
specific gravity valuable index of
hydration status and functional status of kidney
use of urine and what else is used to calculate GFR
blood
serum creatinine level
0.6-1.2
BUN normal level
8-20 mg
what does BUN stand for
blood urea nitrogen
BUN is influenced by
- protein intake
- GI bleeidng
- hydration status
normal BUN to creatinine ratio
10:1
what ratio do we start to get suspected of pre renal conditions such as CHF or GI bleed
15:1
casts are formed when
cells are packed together in the tubule lumen
Dysgenesis
failure of an organ to develop normally
agenesis
complete failure of an organ to develop
hypoplasia
failure of an organ to reach normal size
Potters syndrome is what type of failure of organ development
agenesis
when you see the prefix A what does that mean
without
Pottersyndrome is characteristic facial features of newborns with _________ agenesis
renal
renal agenesis name
Potter Syndrome
Polycystic kidney disease can be what autosomal
both (dominant and recessive)
if you have cysts in kidney you may also have them where
liver, pancreas
cysts of kidney may also present with mitral valve
prolapse
cysts of the kidney may have a 10-30% chance of ___________ aneurysm
cerebral
cysts of the kidney may also have chronic colonic ___________
diverticula
cysts of the kidney will present with
pain, hematuria, infection, hypertension
is the process of cysts in the kidney fast or slow
slow
hematuria
blood in urine
causes of urinary tract obstruction
developmental defects
pregnancy
benign prostatic hyperplasia
scar tissue
inflammation
tumors
neurological disorders
stasis of urine predisposing to
infection and stone formation
development of back pressure interfere with
renal blood flow and destroys kidney tissue
what is back pressure in renal system
urine from bladder pushes on ureter and kidney
manifestations of urinary obstruction depend on
site of obstruction
the cause
the rapidity with which the condition developed
common symptoms of urinary obstruction
pain
signs and symptoms of UTI
manifestations of renal dysfunction
hydronephrosis
refers to urine filled dilation of renal pelvis and chalices with accompanying atrophy of renal tissues caused by obstruction of urine flow
hydronephrosis causes
congenital, stones, tumors, inflammatory
kidney stones definition
crystalline structures that form from components of the urine
kidney stones are also alled
renal calculi
kidney stones happen when the filtrate is extremely saturated or unsaturated
saturated
what is the prevention of kidney stones/renal calculi
FLUID INTAKE PLUS CORRECTING CAUSE WITH DIET/MEDS
you have a patient who is frequently having kidney stones what is one preventative measure you can tell them to further prevent kidney stones
increased fluid intake
why would you want to increase fluid intake if you have kidney stones
makes the filtrate less saturated
why are women more at risk for UTI
shorter urethra
lower UTIs are just your basic
cystitis
lower UTI is the normal or abnormal UTI
normal
what is infected with lower UTI
bladder and urethra
how would someone present with a lower UTI/cystitis
urgency, pain, frequent bathroom
