s/s Mg hypo/hypermagnemesia | hypo: like hypocalcemia
tx: diet, mg
hyper: like hypercalcemia, flushing, resp dep, cardiac arrest
tx: Ca gluconate, vent, dialysis |
s/s hypo/hyperphosphetemia | hypo: like hypercalcemia
tx: diet, phosphorus oral
hyper: like hypocalcemia
tx: diet restrict, phosphate binders(Os-Cal, PhosLo), NS, IV dextrose, insulin |
Tx for hypo/hyper fluid volume | FVD tx: fluids
FVE tx: fluid/Na restrict, diurectics, dialysis |
Tx for hypo/hypernatremia | hypo tx: diet, NS, hypertonic saline
hyper tx: fluids, diurectics, diet restrict |
tx for hypo/hyperkalemia | hypo tx: diet, PO K,
hyper tx: diet restrict, diurectics, IV glucose, insulin and Na bicarb, Ca gluconate, dialysis |
tx for hypo/hypercalcemia | hypo tx: diet, Ca salt PO
hyper tx: fluids, etidronate, pamidronate, mithramycin, calcitonin, glucocorticoids, phosphate salts |
mild/mod/severe renal disease | mild: GFR 60-90
mod: GFR 30-59
severe: GFR 1-29
ESRD: <15 |
hardening of the renal aa is termed? | nephrosclerosis r/t htn and diabetes and major cause of ESRD and CKD |
malignant nephrosclerosis is assoc with?
benign?
tx: | malignant HTN >130 diastole
assoc with atherosclerosis/HTN
TX: Ace inhibitors & ARBs and treat DM |
An inflammation of the glomerular capillaries is termed?
cause?
tx?
nsg mgmt? | glomerulonephritis r/t strep or infection. See protein/blood in urine
tx: plasmophoresis, antibiotics, antiHTN, corticosteroids
Nsg: carb diet to clear proteins, I/O |
what is azotemia? | abnormal concentration of nitrogenous waste in blood |
These s/s are seen in renal failure or chronic glomerulonephritis | hyperkalemia- not pass K
metabolic acidosis: not pass acid and not regenerate bicarb
anemia- decr erythropoiesis
hypoalbuminemia- protein loss
incr phosphate - not lose phosphate
decr Ca- Ca binds phosphate
mental changes
impaired nerve cond - urem |
Other s/s or renal failure | enlarged heart, pulmonary edema, L vent hypertrophy, tented T waves from hyperK, shrinking kidney cortex |
What happens with Goodpasture syndrome?
tx? | antibodies attack lung and renal tiss
tx: immunosuppression wtih Cytoxin and steroids, plasmaphoresis/dialysis |
One type of renal failure from incr glomerular permeability with massive proteinuria, edema, high cholesterol
tx? | nephrotic syndrome
tx: protein diet(meat), diruetics, ACE inhibitors to reduce proteinuria, chol. meds |
what is preferred tx for renal Ca? | radical nephrectomy- remove kidney, adrenal gland, fat & lymph nodes
Torisel is IV infusion to tx adv renal cell carcinoma |
50% incr in creatinine above baseline indicates? | ARF- acute renal failure |
The three categories of ARF are | prerenal: happens b4 reaches kidney(hypofusion)
intrarenal: damage to glomeruli/tubules from inf, toxins, tumors, incr K/ph
postrenal: after kidney(obstruction in tract: stones, prostate |
What are the 4 phases of ARF | intiation: initial insult, ends when oliguria starts
oliguria: incr BUN, creatinine, K, Na
diuresis: incr output
recovery: takes 3-12mos |
What is one of the earliest signs of tubular damage in the kidney? | low sp. gravity, inability to concentrate urine |
Decr GFR, oliguria, anuria make pt high risk for?
tx? | hyperkalemia
Kayexalate, low dose dopamine, IV glucose & insulin or Ca Gluconate(drives K back into cell TEMPORARILY until removed
dialysis
Na Bicarb
diet restrictions |
Complications of ESRD and tx | hyperkalemia
pericarditis r/t uremic waste
htn r/t na & h2o retention
anemia
bone disease r/t retention of phosphorus and low Ca and decr of Vit D |
Med mgmt of ESRD | antacids, antihtn(lisinopril), antiseizure(dilantin, Valium), EPO, restrict fluid, dialysis, transplant |
Wastes and fluid are removed in dialysis by | diffusion:high concentrationin blood to lower in dialysate
osmosis:from low concentration(blood) to high concentration(dialysate bath) |
what is preferred method of permanent access? | arteriovenous fistula(AVF) by joining art to vein. Needs 2-3mos to mature b4 use |
what is common complication of dialysis?
diet? | hypotension(N/V, diaphoresis, tachycardia, dizzy)
SOB, muscle cramps, dysrhythmias
diet: low protein, high calorie |
What is main adv in peritoneal dialysis vs hemodialysis? | PD for those who can't do hemo, more gradual, those susceptible to rapid fluid/electrolye/metabolic changes like diabetes, cardio pts and htn,HF, pul edema.
PD takes 36-48h and hemo 6-8h |
With dialysis, how should nurse adm htn meds? | htn is common and htn meds must be withheld to avoid hypotension |
what is main complication of kidney surgery? | hemorrhage and shock |
An important nsg fx for kidney transplant pts is | assess psychological stress and coping |
