Causes
Labs
Drug Therapy
100
Retention and buildup of nitrogenous waste in the blood
What is Azotemia
100
Most common renal replacement therapy used in End Stage Kidney Disease and Kidney failure
What is Hemodialysis
100
Become nephrotoxic due to these
What is medications
100
When BOTH of these labs are raised and the ratio between them stay the same kidney dysfunction is likely
What is serum creatinine and BUN
100
Used when heart failure induces kidney injury or makes it worse
What is digoxin
200
Hypotension, tachycardia, low urine output, low CO, low CVP, lethargy
What is Pre Renal Kidney Injury
200
Allows exchange of waste, fluids and electrolytes to occur in the peritoneal cavity
What is peritoneal dialysis
200
Urine output less then 400 mL/day
What is oliguria
200
Dark/highly concentrated urine may indicate renal failure. If the lab value rises and then falls back down to normal range it may indicate acute renal failure. If the lab gradually increases it may be chronic renal failure
What is urine specific gravity
200
Replacement vitamins to prevent severe deficiencies during dialysis
What is folic acid & ferrous sulfate
300
Decreased urine specific gravity indicating a loss of urine concentrating ability
What is Early signs of kidney tubular damage
300
Protein and electrolyte intake, fluid restrictions, and calorie consumption
What is nutrition therapy to prevent malnutrition
300
Poor blood flow caused by hypovolemic shock and heart failure
What is pre renal azotemia
300
This lab will help determine what stage of chronic renal failure a patient is in( 60-89%,30-60%,15-30% or <15%)
What is Glomelular Filtration Rate
300
Prevents anemia by stimulating red blood cell growth and maturation in the bone marrow
What is epoetin alfa or darbepoetin alfa
400
Implement renal replacement therapy
What is end stage kidney disease-stage 5
400
Absence of systemic disease and infections. No history of cancer, no hypertension or kidney disease. Adequate kidney function
What is criteria for living related kidney donors
400
Because of parents
What is genetics
400
Bun 10-20, Serum creatinine 0.6-1.2, serum sodium 135-145, serum potassium 3.5-5, serum phosphate 3-4.5, calcium 8.5-10, arterial blood PH 7.35-7.45, Specific Gravity 1.005-1.030
What is normal renal value labs
400
High blood phosphate levels cause hypocalcemia and osteodystrophy. These drugs lower serum phosphate levels by binding phosphorous present in food
What is Aluminum hydroxide gel or aluminum carbonate gel
500
Urine output of 100-400 mL/24 hours. Does not respond to fluid challenges or diuretics and can last one to three weeks
What is Oliguric phase of acute kidney failure
500
Standard treatment for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury. It is better tolerated than hemodialysis
What is continuous renal replacement therapies
500
Asystemic disease in which urate crystals deposit in the joints and other body tissues causing inflammation
What is gout
500
800-2,000 mL/day
What is normal daily urine output
500
Should be taken daily to avoid constipation from drug therapy
What is stool softeners
