Renal Failure

AB
cystitisInflammation of the bladder
Cystitis: Clinical ManifestationsDysuria, frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain, incomplete bladder empyting
Functions of kidneyExcretion of waste, water and salt balance, acid-base balance, hormone secretion
acute renal failurerapid loss of renal failure, develops over hours or days, potenially reversible condition
Prerenal failure (prerenal azotemiablood flow
intrarenal failure (acute tubular necrosisdamage
postrenal failureobstruction
chronic renal failuregradual onset, 90-95% nephron damaged, Permanent damage
Prerenal azotemia clincial manifestationshypotension, tachycardia, decreased cardiac output, decreased central venous pressure, decreased urine output, lethary
Clinical Manifestations of Intrarenal ARF and Postrenal AzotemiaOliguris, increased urine specific gravity, hypertension, tachycardia, shortness of breath, orthopnea, rales or crackles, pulmonary edema, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, flank pain, lethargy, headache, tremors, confusion, generalized edema, weight gain
Onset Phasebegins with the precipitating events and continues until oliguria develops, gradual accumulation of nitrogenous wastes, can last hours to days
oliguric phaseurine ouput less than 400mL/24 hours, lasts 8-15 days, reduced glomerular filteration rate, increased bun/creatinine levels, hyperkalemia, hypocalcemia/hyperphosphatemia, hypermanesemia
diuretic phasegradual return of renal function, normal or high urine output, diuresis can result in an output of up to 10 L/day, electroloyte losses typically precee clearance of nitrogenous waste, normal renal tubular function is reestabished during this phase, 2-6 weeks
recovery phasebegins normal activity, upto 12 months, renal function may never return to pre-illness levels.
