atherosclorosis, htn, clot, infection = blood supply to the heart is cut off causing tissue death | MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION |
heart decompensation due to congestion = pump failure of right and left ventricles. Insufficient circulation & o2 = edema, SOB, chest pain with exertion. | CHF (Cardio heart failure) |
failure of nephrons to maintain normal function-kidneys are unable to adequately eliminate nitrogenous waste (end product of protein metabolism) | RENAL DISEASE |
renal failure toxins are recycled back into | blood stream |
associated with dz, such as MI, trauma, and burns | ACUTE RENAL FAILURE |
long term kidney dz leads to slowly diminishing number of functioning NEPHRON = uremia = dialysis or kidney transplant | CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE (Irreversible) |
