ARF Postop:
what are 2 main prerenal faliure causes?
Diminished CO
Volume depletion
ARF Postop:
with prerenal cause of Diminished CO, what are some couses of the decreased Co
- CHF
- Cardiogenic shock
- Acut MI
- Dysrhythmia
ARF Postop:
with prerenal causes what causes volume depletion
- hemorrhage
- Spsis
- GI blood/fluid loss
- Hypoalbuminemia
- 3rd spacing
ARF Postop:
what are 3 postrenal causes
ureteral obstruction
Bladder neck obstruction
Vascular obstruction
ARF Postop
w/ post renal failure, what causes the ureteral obstruction?>
- surgical ligation

- calculi
- Blood clot
ARF Postop:
w/ post renal failure what are some causes of Bladder neck obstruction?
prostate enlargement
Bladddr calculi
Urethral stricture
ARF Postop:
w/ post renal failure what are some causes of vascular obstruction
- Renal vein thrombosis
- Surgical ligation
ARF Postop:

Vascular damage
ARF Postop:
w/ intrarenal failure what causes tubular damage?
- ATN
- Endogenous toxins
- Exogenous toxins
ARF Postop:
w/ intrarenal failure what causes interstitium failure?
- Drugs (abx, NSAIDS)
- Infections
ARF Postop:
w/ intrarenal faliure what causes Vascular failure?
drugs
thrombotic states
initially hypercalemia causes hyperexcitability of cellular membranes how?
by moving the resting membrane potential closer to the threshold potential, thus a smaller stimulus is needed to initiate a contraction
initially hypercalemia causes hyperexcitability of cellular membranes by moving the resting membrane potential closer to the threshold potential, thus a smaller stimulus is needed to initiate a contraction eventually the Na-K ATPase pump begins to fatigue from excessive depolarizations, and the cellular membrane becomes what?
less excitable
what does hyperkalemia due to NMB induced by muscle relaxants
it potentiates the NM blockade by decreasing the excitability of the skeletal muscle
remember (
initially hypercalemia causes hyperexcitability of cellular membranes by moving the resting membrane potential closer to the threshold potential, thus a smaller stimulus is needed to initiate a contraction eventually the Na-K ATPase pump begins to fatigue from excessive depolarizations, and the cellular membrane becomes less excitable)
what are major presentations of residual NM blockade?
- airway obstruction
- hypoventilation
- hypoxemia
Hyperkalemia can contribult to residual what? (r/t MR)
muscle weakness
Hemostasis:
how is a platelet plug made?
- plts activated at site of injury to form a platelet plug that provides the initial hemostatic response
Hemostasis:
what the primary events of Clot formation
- exposure to tissue factor (III) at the site abd it’s interaction w/ Factor VII and the Factor X (hagman factor)
Hemostasis:
what are the primary events for termination of clot
- involves factor antithrombin, tissue factor pathway inhibtor, and protein C pathway
Hemostasis:
whay is there clot lysis?
restore vessel patency
Hemostasis:
steps for clot lysis
- plasminogen binds fibrin to tpa
- activate proteolytic plasmin
- cleaves fibrin, fibrinogen, and a variety of plasma proteins and clotting factors
what is the impairment of hemostasis and activation of fibrinolysis that occurs d/t severe injury
Acute traumatic coagulopathy (ATC)
ATC:
what are standard test?
- PT/INR
- aPTT
- finrinogen level
- plt count
ATC:
pt’s w/o preexisting coag defects that have a prolonged PT and/ot PTT > _____ x’s normal have ATC
> 1.5x’s normal
