HCC MT cHAPTER 2
Human body in Health and Disease
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| posterior cavity human body that houses the cranial and vertebral cavities | dorsal cavity |
| divides the body horizontally; sometimes called cross sectional transverse plane | transverse plane |
| anterior cavity that houses the thoracic and adominopelvic cavity | ventral cavity |
| This muscle separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity | diaphragm |
| the functional units of the kidneys that form urine processes of filitaration reasorbtion and secretion | nephrons |
| each nephron contains, a cluster of capillaries surrounded by a membrane called the bowmans capsule | glomerulus |
| the complete surpression of urine formation by the kidneys | anuria |
| is at toxic condition caused by excessive amount of urea and other waste products in the bloodstream | uremia |
| a sudden onset and is characterized by uremia. May be caused by many factors including a drop in blood volume or blood pressure due to injury or surgery | acute renal failure |
| a progressive disease that may be caused by a variety of conditions when the kidney function is insufficent, dialysis, or transplation is requried | chronic renal failure |
| the late stages of chronic renal failure | end stage renal disease |
| excissive fluid in the body tissues | edema |
| abnormally high concentractions of high protein in the urine | Hyperproteinuria |
| abnormally low concentrations concentractions of protein in the urine | hypoproteinuria |
| abnormally large amounts of lipids in the blood | hyperlipidemia |
| the damage to the kidneys capillary blood vessels that is caused by long term diabetes mellitus | diabetic nephropathy |
| inflammation of the kidney involving primarily the glomeruli | glomerulonephritis |
| is the the dialation of the renal pelvis of one or both kidneys | hydronephrosis |
| the destention (state of being enlarged) of a kidney | nephrectasis |
| inflammation of the kidney | nephritis |
| the downward displacement of the kidney | floating kidney |
| the suppuration (formation or discharge of pus) | nephropyosis |
| inflammation on the renal pelvis | pyelitis |
| the inflammation of the renal pelvis and of the kidney | pyelonephritis |
| the acute pain in the kidney area that is caused by blockage during the passage of a kidney stone | renal colic |
| disorder characterized by the presence of stones in the kidney | nephrolithiasis |
| the distention( stretching out ) of the ureter with urin ethat cannot flow because the ureter is blocked | hydroureter |
| abnormal narrowing of the ureter | ureterostenosis |
| pain in the bladder | cystalgia |
| inflammation of the bladder | cystitis |
| inflammation within the wall of the bladder this is a chronic condition with symptoms similar of those of cystitis | interstitial cystitis |
| hernia of the bladder | cystocele |
| the visual examination of the urinary bladder also used for treatment procedures such as the removal of tumors | Cystoscopy |
| is a radiographic x ray study of the kidneys and ureters in which iodine is injected into vein as a contrast medium to define these structure more clearly | intravenous pyelogram |
| the radiographic study of these structures without the use of a contrast medium | KUB |
| the radiograpic visualization of the urinary tract with the use of a contrast medium | intravenous urography |
| traces the action of the kidney as it processes and excretes dye injected into the bloodstream | excretory urography |
| a radiograph of the urinary system taken after dye has been placed in the uretha through a sterile catheter and caused to flow upward through the urinary tract | retrograde urography |
| a radiographic examination of thr bladder after installation of a contrast medium via a urethal catheter | cystography |
| performed after cystography. A diagonostic procedure in which a fluoroscope is used to examine the flow of urine from the bladder and through the urethra | Voiding cystourethrography |
| is the examination of urine to determine the presence of abnormal elements | urinalysis |
| are medications administed to increase urine secretion to rid the body of excess sodium and water | diuretics |
| a procedure to remove waste products from the blood of patients whose kidneys no longer function | dialysis |
| the lining of the peritoneal cavity acts as the filter to remove waste from the blood used for renal failure and certain types of poisoning | peritoneal dialysis |
| provides ongoing dialysis as the patient goes about his daily activites | continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis |
| uses a machine to cycle the dialysate fluid during the night while the patient sleeps | continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis |
