Discussobstructive disorders in terms of their effect on the renal physiology(including prostate hyperplasia), be able to discuss its effect to the renalsystem- what does it do to the renal system?
The effect that prostratehyperplasia has on the renal system, is that prostrate hyperplasia affects thepart of the prostrate surrounding the top of the urethra and this put pressureon the urethra, and this pressure can weaken the bladder leading to urinaryretention, renal failure or recurrent UTI
Discuss Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
causes:
symptoms:
prevention:
complication:
treatment:
risk factors:
-women (shorter urethra compare to men-which make them more prone to UTI)
-advanced age- though young people still get it, the older you get, the more risky you are at developing UTI
-Diabetes Mellitus
- pregnant women
causes: UTI is caused by E.Coli (a bacteria) affecting urethra and bladder
-A burning feeling when urinating, Frequent urge to urinate, Pain on lower abdomen, Cloudy smelly urine
prevention: Eating a well-balanced diet, Wipe from front to back-proper wiping, changing underwear
complication:Recurrent infection, Permanent kidney damage
treatment: Antibiotics
Discuss glomerular disorders
Diabetes
Infections
History of cancer
Infection
Drug toxic to kidney
Ischemia
Hematuria
Proteinuria
Hypertension
Edema (fluid retention) with swelling evident in hands, faceand feet
Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise
Control blood pressure
Chronic kidney disease End-stage renal failure
Medication such as Diuretics to reduce fluid retention and bloodpressure medication to control high blood pressure
Discuss acute kidney disease (isthe disease where the kidneys lose the ability to filter waster from the blood AKI)- good learning objective for a case study! Be able to discusspre, Intra and post renal failure and RIFLE
Being hospitalized
Advanced age
Blockage in the blood vessels in arms or legs Diabetes
High blood pressure
Heart failure
Kidney diseases
- Pre-renal can be due to hypovalemia- a decreased flow of blood to kidney and haemorrhagic blood loss
- Intra-renal directdamage to the kidneys Infection, drug-hypersensitivity to drug glomerulonephritis, autoimmune diseases
-Post-renalkidneystonesand prostate hyperplasia
Decrease glomerular filtration rate Decrease urine output
Increase nitrogenous waste in blood such as urea andcreatinine
Allhospitalised patients both on admission and during their admission stay shouldbe assessed regularly for risk of developing AKI
High levels of potassium in the blood Muscle weakness
paralysis and heart rhythm problems Metabolic acidosis
Risk- increased creatinine x1
Injury- increased creatinine x2
Failure- increased creatinine x3
Loss- complete loss of kidney function
End-time kidney failure- complete loss of kidney function
Discuss chronic kidney disease (the progressive loss of renal function)-good learning objective for a case study! Be able todiscuss CKD on other body systems
Cardiovascular disease
Acute Kidney Disease
Diabetes mellitus
Kidney disease
Lupus
Azotemia and Uremia
Anorexia
Nausea
Vomiting
Constipation
Malnutrion and weight loss
Stayat a healthy weight and maintaining normal BP which help prevent other diseasessuch as diabetes
angina
Worsening heartfailure
Left ventricular hypertrophy
a low protein diet to reduce end products of protein metabolism that the kidneys cannot excrete
medications such as loop diuretics (frusemide) to to maintain fluid balance and antihypertensive to control blood pressure
Be able to discuss CKD effect on other body systems
skeletal:
reproductive: sexual dysfunction
cardiovascular: hypertension
endocrine: restricted growth in children
GI: anorexia, vomiting
renal: hypotension, dcreased or dilute urine
