urinary function ch.7 Flashcards
altered eliminations
- incontience
- neurogeniic bladder
- UTI
- nephrolithiasis
- hydronephrosis
- cancers: renal cell carcinoma & bladder
- benign prostatic hyperplasia
impaired renal function
- acute kidney injury
- chronic kidney disease
Incontinence
loss of urinary control
- affects 25-35% of population
types of incontinecne
children
- enuresis
- nocturnal enuresis
adults
- stress
- urge
- reflex
- overflow
- functional
- treatment
incontinence children enuresis
involuntary urination by a child after 4-5 years of age
incontinence children nocturnal enuresis
- bed wetting
types
- primary: child never developed normal bladder control @ night. might bc bladder too small
- secondary: normal urinary control. physiological causes changes it
causes:
- psychological
- structural
- underlying condition
incontinence adulthood stress
- combined process of weakening of bladder sphincter and intra-abdominal pressure
contributing factors:
- pregnancy
- child birth
- menopause
- prostate removal and obesity
incontinence adulthood urge
- sudden, intense urge to urinate and involuntary loss of urine
- overacting bladder
- few second warning
causes
- parkinson
- alzheimer disease
- stroke
- injury to nervous system
- frequent uti
incontinence adulthood reflex
trauma or damage to nervous system
- detrusor hyperreflexiaxia
- increased detrusor muscle contractility
- urine is released bladder cant relax and fill
incontinence adulthood overflow
- inabilty to empty bladde ror retention
- chronic distention
- “nursing/teaching bladder”
causes:
- bladder damage
- urethral blockage
- nerve damage
- prostate conditons
incontinence adulthood functional
- physical or mental impairment that prevents toileting in time
incontinence transient
- resulting from underlying cause
- temporary
causes
- delirium
- infection
- use of diuretics and sedatives
- high urine output
- alcohol and caffeine consumption
risk factors for incontinence
- female gender- pelvic floor muscle and vaginal wall weakening
- advancing age- both muscle weaken and urine storage
- obesity
- smoking
complications inconteince
- impaired skin integrity
- recurrent utis
- impaired body image/ sexual disfunction
- interruption of usual activities
neurogenic bladder
bladder dysfunction caused by an interruption of normal bladder nerve innervation
- results in flaccid or spastic bladder
etiology of neurogenic bladder
neurologic
- brain/spinal cord injury/ infections
- dementia
- parkinsons
- stroke
- ms
other
- medications
- alcoholism
- herpes zoster
UTI
- urethritis
- cystitis
- pyelonephritis
infection within the urinary tract
- urethritis- urethra
- cystitis- bladder
- pyelonephritis- kidneys
uti etiology
bacterial invasion
- 75%-95% caused by E.coli (normal intestinal flora)
patho of uti
- bacteria resists normal defenses: urination and acidity
- adherers to urothelial lining
- inflammation/redness of wall of urethra/bladder
UTI risk factors
- female
- immobility
- bowel/bladder inconteninence
- urinary obstruction- pooling of urine
- indwelling urinary catheters- follys
- antibiotic use- overuse- kills good bacteria
- improper personal hygiene
uti clinical manifestation
- asymptomatic
- urgency/ frequency
- dysuria- burning
- hematuria- blood in urine
- cloudy/ foul-smelling urine- more bacteria
- fever, chills, fatigue
- back/flank pain- progress to kidneys
- confusion or sudden change in mental status- do urinalysis
nephrolithiasis
presence of renal calculi (kidney stones)
- composed of: calcium, uric acid and magnesium
