241 EXAM 1

CHAPTER 18 URINARY

QuestionAnswer
Erythropoietin tells bone marrow to make RBC
Filtration of the Kidneys blood is filters through the kidneys. the more pressure the more filtrate. Adjust the body's needs
Reabsorption in the kidney's nutrients, water electrolytes take place and excretion of waste and electrolytes
What does the collecting ducts do? transport urine to the renal pelvis
ADH controls reabsorption of water
Aldostrone holds on to sodium and water and excretes potassium
Atrial natriuretic peptide ANP controls fluid fluid balance and reducing sodium
How much blood from out cardiac output enters the kidney? 20-25% Kidneys love blood and need it to function
What can happen ig there is a obstruction to the blood flow of the kidney? Necrosis and infraction
what is the pourpose of the dual arterioles? control the pressure and the glomerular capillaries and Glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
what does the pressure tell us? the GFR
How is filtration maintained consistent blood flow to the nephrons? Vasoconstriction-decrease BF and increases BP and vasodilation- increase BF and decreases BP
Autoregulation small local reflex adjustments (constrict/dilate)
Sympthaic nerves system SNS fight or flight. increases vasoconstriction
Renin secreted by cells in the kidneys when blood flow is reduced. stimulates Angiostesten I constricting so the BP will come back up to restore BF to the kidneys
Micturition voiding/ urinarting
Urinalysis Testing urin
Urine color and oder Cloudy- protein in urine. Dark color- hematuria or excessive bilirubin or concentrated. Oder- infection or dietary components
BUN blood urine nitrogen and creatinine test elevated levels indicates failure to excrete nitrogen waste from low GFR
Serum pH and bicarbonate blood test ABG. Decreased GFR and failure to control acid base balance
Hemoglobin test Low is when a patient is anemic. Decreased erythropoietin
Urine Culture and Sensitivity Culture- identify organism in urine. Sensitivity- we see what meds the organism is sensitive to then find a med that will work
Cystoscope uses camera to view lower tract, removal of kidney stones
Dialysis is used to? sustain life after kidneys fail.
Hemodialysis shunt(arm), catheter surgically implanted. goes through a tub into machine where waste fluid and electrolytes are filtered out then blood is retuned to the vein. 4 hours
Peritoneal dialysis inserted catheter and happens every night all night. waste fluid and electrolytes are filtered out and drains out to a container
What do Diuretic remove excessive sodium and water. increasing water through kidneys and more output. reduces fluid volume in tissues. Loss of electrolytes is the only bad part
Incontinence loss of voluntary control of the bladder
stress incontinence increased intraabdominal pressure forcing urine through the sphincter from coughing.
over flow incontinence incompetent or week sphincter where urine comes through because it wont close completely
Retention inability to empty bladder because bladder wont let go of the urine. requires manuel release of bladder
Neurogenic Bladder patient with spinal cord injury and nerves are not working property
What is a UTI and what is the bacteria causing it? bladder infection. the whole track. E-Coli
S/S of cystitis and Urethritis and what treatment? Pain, dysuria, urgency, frequency, nocturia, fever nausea, malaise. leukocytosis, cloudy urine, pyuria- discharge in urine. Cervicitis, infertility, PID. Antibiotics
Pyelonephritis infection of one or both kidneys
S/S of Pyelonephritis and treatment Dysuria, dull aching pain in lower back, fever, nausea, malaise, leukocytosis. Hematuria and bacteria. Antibiotics and increases fluid intake
Glomerulonephritis (Acute post streptococcal Glomerulonephritis) happens after a strep infection (Group A beta) 10 days - 2 weeks after strep infection. 3-7 years of age
What does Glomerulonephritis do to the kidney? filtration causing the decreasing of GFR and not filter waste correctly.
S/S of Glomerulonephritis dark and cloudy urine, sever edema(facial, eyes and whole body), , BP elevated, flank pain, malaise, fever, leukocytosis, oliguria-decreased output
How to diagnosis Glomerulonephritis? elevated BUN and creatinine, decreased GFR, strep antibodies, metabolic acidosis, high protein and blood cells
How to treat Glomerulonephritis? steroids to decrease edema, antihypertention, sodium protein and fluid restriction
Nephrotic syndrome abnormality in glomerular capillaries and increased permeability. low serum albumin will leak out of the blood into the urine. decrease plasma osmotic pressure causing edema.
S/S of Nephrotic syndrome Proteinuria, lipiduria, frothy urine, weight gain and edema from excessive fluid, skin breakdown and infection
Treatment of Nephrotic syndrome steroids to reduce inflammation, sodium restriction, hight protein diet
Urolithiasis or urinary calculi Kidney stones. can develop anyway in urinary tract. There is excessive amounts of calcium 75% in blood (hypercalcemia) or insufficient fluid intake. blocking the flow causing bacteria.
s/s of Urolithiasis flank pain, renal colic (intense spasms) until it stone passes. Nausea, vomiting, tachycardia, sweating
Treatment of Urolithiasis and treatment? small stones will pass on there own. large stone- lithotripsy to break up into smaller pices. Increase fluid intake
Hydronephrosis complication from blocked flow of urine from kidney to bladder. it is a secondary cause and can result from renal failure
Renal cell carcinoma (kidney) primary tumor in the renal cortex.
S/S of Renal cell carcinoma and treatment? asymptomatic until it is metastasized. painless hematuria , dull, aching flank pain, papable mass, unexplained weight loss. nephrectomy
Bladder cancer multiply tumors dingoes by urine cytology and biopsy.
S/S of Bladder cancer and treatment? hematuria, dysuria, recurrent infections, gender, habits, exposure to chemicals. surgical resection of tumors or bladder, chemo, radiation, urinary diversion to collect urine
Nephrosclerosis vascular changes. thicken and harding of the walls and narrowing of blood vessels. reducing blood supply to kidney causing ischemia and a release of renin
Treatment of Nephrosclerosis reduce sodium intake to reduce water retention that increasing BP. take Antihypertensive meds to decrease BP
Vesicoureteral reflex defect valve in the bladder causing urine to back flow in the kidneys
Agenesis failure of one kidney. incidental finding if found at all because your body can run off of one kidney
Hypoplasia kidney does not develop to normal size
Ectopic kidney kidney and ureter is not in the correct position witch can work properly but also can be come kinked and cause infection
Fusion both kidneys during development become one large horseshoe shape kidney. Function is normal
Polycystic kidney multi cyst in the kidneys and get bigger and expand over years causes the kidney to become enlarged they compress and destroy the heathy kidney.
when do the S/S ocure for Polycystic kidney around age 40 with the kidney becomes destroyed. uses an abdominal CT scan or a MRI
Acute renal failure temporally failure of both kidneys. dialysis may be used when they are healing.
Why do people get Acute Renal Failure? Reduced blood flow into the kidney. inflamed or necrosis of the tubules causing obstruction of back pressure leading to GFR and oliguria and anuria
S/S of Acute Renal Failure and treatment? rapidly, elevated BUN and creatinine, metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia . dialysis
Chronic renal failure Gradual irreversible destruction. gradual loss of nephrons and asymptomatic till advanced, it can only be slowed down
S/S of Chronic renal failure Oliguria, dry Pruritic- itchy skin, bruising, peripheral neuropathy, sexual dysfunction, menstrual irregular, encephalopathy, congestive heart failure, hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, osteodystrophy, osteoporosis, pneumonia
What are the key indicators of Chronic renal failure ? Anemia, acidosis, azotemia- build up of waste products in blood
What is the treatment of Chronic renal failure? Meds that make body produce RBC, dialysis, fluid restriction, kidney transplant
