Urology/Renal Flashcards
What is the single best predictor of CHF progression
proteinuria
CKD stages
stage 1 >90 stage 2 60-89 stage 3 30-59 stage 4 15-29 stage 5 <15
PCKD
autosomal dom, HTN, hematuria, abd, flank and back pain
Tx for PCKD
ACEI/ARBs
eosinophilia, allergic rxn to meds
Acute interstitial nephritis
inferior urethral obstruction that REFERS pain to ipsilateral labia or testicle
hydronephrosis
Nephrotic syndrom
Na dec Albumin dec Proteinuria >3.5 Hyperlipidemia Renal vein thrombosis Orbital edema Thromboembolism Infection Coagulability
fatty casts, sudsy urine, maltese cross
Nephrotic syndrome
Tx for nephrotic syndrome
glucocorticoids
Dx for renal artery stenosis
gadolinium enhanced MRI
Tx for renal artery stenosis
angioplasty, ACEI or ARBs
What is fibromuscular dysplasia associated with
Renal artery stenosis
what meds do you have to d/c with AKI
ACEI bc it blocks angiotensin induced inc in resistance to maintain GFR
muddy brown casts
acute tubular necrosis
mc cause of hemolytic uremic syndrome in kids
hemolytic uremic syndrome
E. coli O:157
HUS
blood diarrhea, seizures, lethargy, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, renal insuff
HUS
Tx for anemia of CKD
darbepoetin or eop alpha
aspirin (salicylate) tox causes what pH imbalance
mixed resp and metabolic acidosis
Tx for contrast induced AKI
stop kidney processed meds
N-acetylcystine + IV fluid
po prednisone and Benadryl
MC RCC
epithial cells of PCT
Dx for testicular ca
US then if positive then BHCG, alpha fetoprotein and LDH
NEVER BX
tx testicular ca
radical inguinal orchiectomy
MC prostate ca
adenocarcinoma
gonorrhea tx
uncomp = ceftriaxone 250 mg IM PIC = ceftriaxone + doxy Disseminated = IV ceftriaxone
urgency + freq day or night
urge incontinence
MC urinary incontinence in elderly pop
urge
small vol loss with cough/sneeze
stress incontinence
poor strea, incomplete emptying
overflow incontinence
complete loss of bladder control
atonic bladder
RF for nephrolithiasis
PUD due to large amt calcium intake with food
BPH tx
Doxazosin = better urine flow
Finasteride = invol of BPH and prostate shrinkage
Tamsulosin (alpha blocker SE =dizziness)
CYTOKINES CAUSE PROSTATE ENLARGEMENT
clue cells
bacterial vaginosis
RF for testicular ca
cryptorchism 30x inc risk
mc malig in men 15-35
testicular ca
