final exam rnu

nursing renal etc.

QuestionAnswer
acute vascular access device av shunt, subclavian, femoral
av fistula 4-6 weeks to mature. long term device - assess thrills/bruits. no venipuncture, BP or IV in arm. assess CSM, hemorrhage
struvite stones are made of? mg and ammonia
cystine stones autosomal recessive disorder can't break down cystine - leads to stones
urine osmolality better test of urine concentrating than specific gravity
causes of prerenal failure chf, hypovolemia, obstructions to renal blood flow (renal artery stenosis, clamp artery during surgery, embolism to artery)
average MAP 100-110
kidney needs minimum map of __. 60.
acute renal failure mgt protein, K and fluid restrict (previous days u/o + 500cc.) HTN meds (aldomet, ace), diuretics (after fluid bolus challenge), low dose dopamine - trt cause, fluid if rt hypovolemia
s/s of acute renal failure lethargy, twitching, tremors, NV, decrease UO, ^ BUN, creatinine, K (neuro and cardiac changes), anemia, metabolic acidosis, wt gain/loss
stages acute renal failure 1) onset- 2 days UO decrease 20%, BUN creatinine ^ 2) oliguric-anuric - 8-14 days. UO<400cc/day UO 5% normal value, lab values max 3) diuretic - 10 days UO ^ lab values decrease, K and lytes balance 4) recovery- 4-6 months UO and labs stablize
causes of postrenal failure uretral calculi (any calculi with obstruction leads to hydronephrosis), prostatis hypertrophy, bladder tumors, urethral stricture
casues of intralrenal failure acute tubular necrosis (ATN), glomerulonephritis, diabetic neuropathy, HTN, any condition that leads to prolonged ischemia (necrosis to renal tissue)
uremia related assessment confusion, lethargy, sz, anemia, bleeds, skin changes, bone demineralization (renal oesteodystrophy-renal rickets), peripheral neuropathies, peptic ulcers, diarrhea, constipation, pulmonary edema, HTN, cardiac standstill (^ K)
3 stages chronic renal failure decreased renal reserve-BUN and creatinine WNL renal insufficiency-mild-mod azotemia, some systemic effects (bone loss, htn, retain fluids) trt'd end stage renal disease-uremia, 5% renal fxn remains, irreversible, creatinine reaches 10, need dialysis
chronic renal failure etiologies glomerulonephritis, HTN, diabetic neuropathy, adult polycystic kidney disease (autosomal recessive genetic disorder)
CAPD nursing care weigh after draining, cath patency (heparin), allowed more protein, ambulate
capd complication albumin loss
bladder cancer cell types transitional cell carcinoma or urothelial cancer
transurethal resection and cystoscopy scrape urethra and bladder for superficial cancer - hematuria post-op
partial cystectomy` remove 1/2 bladder - capacity reduced
total cystectomy entire bladder removed -need urostomy
radical cystectomy remove bladder, lymph, muscle, fat
pelvic exeneration remove pelvin organs w/bladder
ileal conduit (loop) permanent urostomy - 1 or both ureters placed into resected ileum (becomes stoma) continually flows - stoma not visible
permanent urostomies ileal conduit (loop), colon conduit, kock's pouch (valve inside, drain w/catheter), indiana pouch, ureterosigmoidoscopy
ureterostomy temporary urostomy - tiny stomas likely to occlude nephrostomy tube
uremia mgt protein (0.6-1g/kg) restirct, K (2g) and Na (2g) restrict, fluid restrict, daily wt, ^ carbs, vit D + calcium, phosphate binders, HTN meds (aldomet, ace) dialysis
amphogel - sevelemar HCL, renegal, calcium acetate (phos lo) phosphate binders for uremia
lithotripsy external sound wave break up stone
percutaneous lithotripsy pulsating device placed inside - closer to stone
extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy water bath near stone
cystostomy open incision into bladder to remove stones
percutaneous nephrolithotomy scope placed into kidney-pelvis to remove stones
nephrolithotomy open surgical procedure - remove stones
ureterlithotomy remove stones from ureters
nephrectemy remove entire kidney
interleukin 2 and interpheron alpha biologic tx kills renal cancer cells
hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) acute renal failure, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia
s/s HUS -proteinuria, hematuria mild-UO changes, anemia, thrombocytopenia, azotemia severe- HTN, sz, stupor
DDAV - desmopressin 2 sprays before bad (or tab) for enuresis high relapse rate
hypospadias urethral opening underside of shaft
orchipexy tests brought into scrotum and secured. surgical repair before 2nd bday.
anorchia absence of testes
acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) trt trt HTN, fluid balance, BP Q4-6 hrs, AB only if persistent strept, no added salt, daily wt, avoid fatigue
acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) s/s decreased GFR, hematuria, proteinuria, high specific gravity, high BUN, ASO for strep, acute edema phase, dark urine, decreased UO
primary nephrotic syndrome restricted to glomerular injury
secondary nephrotic syndrome part of systemic illness
minimal change nephrotic syndrome type of primary nephrotic syndrome. obscure non-specific illness
congenital nephrotic syndrome hereditary dt recessive gene on autosome
wilm's tumor (nephroblastoma) staging/prognosis swelling mass in abd- firm, nontender, one side, HTN, anemia, hematuria, wt loss, fever, mets 1- high survival rates 2-tumor ltd to kidney + resected 3-tumor confined to abd 4-mets 5-bilateral renal involvement
primary reflux dt congenital anomaly - familial pattern - screen children thru 72 months
secondary reflux acquired
pyelonephritis inflamm of upper urinary tract. ^ fever, chills, flank pain, abd pain, leukocytosis. suspected children admitted to hospital and AB for 2 days. common cause- reflux w/infection
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) retrograde flow of bladder into ureters. siblings screened. spontaneous resolution FU Critical, VCUG (voiding cystouretrography)yrs after, low dose AB, freq urine culture, renal US 1 month post-if no obst-stop AB. renal US and VCUG 6 mo and 1-2 yrs later
HUS mgt fluid repl WITH CARE, correct acidosis/lyte issue. trt early- hemodialysis, PD, cont hemofiltration, transfuse w/PRBC for anemia
wilm's tumor (nephroblastoma) mgt chemo for all stages- VINCRISTINE - surgery 24-48 hrs, nephrectomy. advanced=DOXORUBICIN, post op radiation if lg tumor, if both preop radiation. DONT PALPATE TUMOR, chemo/radiation right after surgery monitor BP (renin excess->HTN) avoid contact sports
