EXAM 2 worksheet - patho
Most common type of kidney stones - Calcium oxalate stones
Causes of struvite kidney stones - Associated with UTI'S.
women are likely to have UTI's
mineral produced bacteria in the urinary tract
What are the risk factors for the development of kidney stones - Metabolic will increase your calcium,
oxalic, uric, citric acids
your genetic will have family history of stone formation, gout, renal acidosis, cystinuria
your lifestyle will be a sedentary occupation and immobility.
What are the dietary restrictions with calcium oxlate kidney stones - MUST AVOID
spinach, cabbage, nuts, the, rhubarb, tomatoes, celery, asparagus , bees, parsley, Worcestershire sauce,
chocolate, instant coffee
Common foods that cause urticaria (hives) - Tree nuts, chocolate, seafood, tomatoes, eggs, fresh berries,
milk
Infection diseases associated w tick bites are - The Rocky Mountain spotted fever and the Lyme disease
Characteristics of stage 3 pressure ulcers - Stage 1- skin is UNBROKEN but is inflamed.
stage 2- skin is BROKEN to epidermis or dermis.
stage 3- ulcer extends to the subcutaneous fat layer.
stage 4- (undermining is likely), ulcer EXTENDS to the muscle or the bone
, Autonomic Dysreflexia Spinal cord injuries signs and symptoms - Injuring is autonomic dysreflexia, it
occurs after spinal shock has resolved and it may occur years after the injury.
S/s= pounding headache, increase in BP, nasal congestion, bradycardia, profuse diaphoresis (excessive
sweating)
Spinal cord injuries (age groups) - Young people 15-35.
motor vehicle crashes, falls, violence, sports injuries
Males account for 80% of spinal cord injuries
MVC= 46%
FALLS= 22%
VIOLENCE 16%
SPORTS INJURIES 12%
Clinical manifestations after a spinal cord injury - Loss of all motor and sensory function below the level
of the injury.
Bilateral external rotation of the legs
loss of bowel and bladder function
may develop spinal or neurogenic shock
NO SENSATION BELOW SITE OF INJURY
Nursing diagnosis for a patient w spinal cord injury - Place your patient in a seated position to lower
their BP.
rapid assessment to identify and elimate cause (empty the bladder, examine rectum, examine the skin)
Nursing Diagnosis for a patient with a spinal cord injury - AIRWAY is IMPORTANT
