1. A 25-year-old female is diagnosed with urinary tract obstruction. While planning care, the
nurse realizes that the patient is expected to have hydronephrosis and a decreased glomerular
filtration rate caused by:
a. decreased renal blood flow.
b. decreased peritubular capillary pressure.
c. dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces proximal to a blockage.
d. stimulation of antidiuretic hormone.
ANS: C
Hydronephrosis occurs due to dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces proximal to a blockage.
