Terms in this set (51)



 Acute renal failure Reversible 
Determining prognosis- kidneys respond to diuretic with good
output; this indicates that kidneys are functioning well


Acute Pyelonephritis Diagnosing by clinical symptoms alone can be difficult; can be
similar to cystitis


Diagnosis established by:
-Urine culture
-Urinalysis (WBC casts indicates pyelonephritis, but may not
always be present)
-Signs/Symptoms
-Complicated pyelonephritis requires blood cultures and
urinary tract imaging


Renal Calculi (Renal Stones) Goals of Treatment:
Manage acute pain
Promote passage of stone
Reduce size of stone
Prevent new stone formation


Chronic Renal Failure Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive loss of renal
function associated with systemic disease such as hypertension,
diabetes mellitus (most significant risk factor), systemic lupus
erythematosus or intrinsic kidney disease
CKD stage is determined by estimates of GFR and albuminuria

Who is a candidate for dialysis? End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is the final stage of CKD with
the number one cause being diabetes mellitus combined with
hypertension. At this point, the patient is completely dependent
on dialysis to survive.
CKD is classified into five stages and is based on the patient's
GFR rather than symptoms.


Patients will need dialysis when the following symptoms are
present:
--Metabolic acidosis.
--Hyperkalemia: Hyperkalemia in the presence of EKG changes
(peaked T-waves) is an indication for dialysis. --Hyperkalemia by
itself is not an indication for dialysis.
--Drug toxicity: Drug toxicity due to the following drugs is an
indication for dialysis and include salicylates, Lithium,
Isopropanol, Methanol and Ethylene glycol).
--Fluid volume overload that is not responsive to diuretics.
--Uremic symptoms due to nitrogenous wastes in the blood
stream.


Stage I CKD There is kidney damage with normal or elevated GFR
90-120


Stage II CKD There is kidney damage with mild decrease in GFR
60-89


Stage III CKD There is a moderate decrease in GFR
30-59


Stage IV CKD There is a severe decrease in GFR
15-29


Stage V CKD Kidney failure- End-stage renal disease
<15 (dialysis) Once Stage IV is reached, progression to Stage V is
inevitable as well as dialysis or kidney transplant
