AKI
This urinary finding is the primary manifestation of AKI in children.
What is oliguria?
This syndrome involving elevated nitrogen waste products occurs in CKD.
What is uremia?
This is the preferred dialysis method for children.
What is peritoneal dialysis?
These are the three major types of renal failure.
What are AKI, CKD, and ESRD?
Nephrotic Syndrome is characterized by massive _____ loss in the urine.
What is protein?
This acid-base disturbance occurs because damaged kidneys cannot produce bicarbonate.
What is metabolic acidosis?
In CKD, these kidney structures progressively become destroyed.
What are nephrons?
This side effect commonly occurs during hemodialysis because blood leaves the body rapidly.
What is hypotension?
These two complications commonly occur with renal failure.
What are azotemia and uremia?
This blood protein level is decreased in nephrotic syndrome.
What is albumin?
This lab finding commonly increases in AKI because of reduced GFR.
What is BUN?
This skin appearance may occur in advanced CKD.
What is a sallow or muddy appearance?
This is the most common complication of peritoneal dialysis.
What is peritonitis?
This hormone deficiency contributes to anemia in renal failure.
What is erythropoietin (EPO)?
Children with nephrotic syndrome commonly appear this color because of illness and fluid shifts.
What is pale/pallor?
This type of diet is commonly recommended nutritionally for AKI patients.
What is high carbohydrate and high fat?
This urinary condition involving backward urine flow is associated with recurrent UTIs and CKD.
What is vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)?
Dialysate solution enters the peritoneal cavity using this force.
What is gravity?
This pulmonary complication should be monitored for in children with cardiac failure from renal disease.
What is pulmonary edema?
This corticosteroid is commonly prescribed for nephrotic syndrome.
What is prednisone?
Hypertension in AKI is commonly related to excess of this electrolyte.
What is sodium?
This percentage of functional renal capacity is destroyed in CKD.
What is more than 50%?
This dialysis method circulates blood outside the body while simultaneously infusing replacement solution.
What is hemofiltration?
This is the most common cause of AKI in children.
What is transient renal failure?
This infusion may be administered to restore vascular protein levels.
What is serum albumin infusion (SPA)?
