Nephro Flashcards
(35 cards)
Phospholipase a2 receptor antigen test positive in primary membranous nephropathy, negative in secondary membranous nephropathy
Membranous nephropathy increase risk of blood clot when albumin less than 2.8
Esrd increase risk for renal cell carcinoma with multiple cysts
Tolvaptan is approved for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
Ppi can cause hypomagnesemia
Dm2 can have mild hypomagnesemia due to insulin resistance and sglt2 inhibitor cause increase magnesium level
Surreptitious diuretic use can cause metabolic alkalosis
Treatment of severe hypermagnesemia in esrd by calcium carbonate and hemodialysis
If normal kidney function, can use furosemide
Topiramate can cause both type 1 and type 2 Renal tubular acidosis
Renal percutaneous angioplasty done when
Short duration of htn
Atherosclerotic Reno vascular disease refractory to medical therapy
Severe htn or recurrent flash pulmonary edema
Aki following use of acei or arb
Progressive impaired kidney disease due to bilateral renovascular disease or unilateral affect one kidney
Ifosfamide can cause fanconi syndrome
Mesna can prevent hemorrhagic cystitis and bladder cancer from cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide
Calcitriol should not be used in non dialysis dependent patient because risk of calcium overload, just use on esrd on dialysis
Calcium based binder are calcium carbonate and calcium acetate
Non calcium based binder are sevelamer and lanthanum
Cinacalcet a calcimimetic that decrease pth level us pda approved for pt who are undergo dialysis
First line treatment of iga nephropathy is acei
Bartter syndrome looks like furosemide effect
Gitelman syndrome look like thiazide diuretic
Liddle syndrome looks like amiloride or triamterene effect
Clopidogrel can cause hemolytic uremic syndrome
In salicylate toxicity, can caue res alkalosis, metabolic alkalosis and acidosis. Maintain serum ph 7.5-7.55 to avoid salicylic acid in the brain
Hemodialysis is used when salicylate level is higher 90
Patient with fibromusculsr dysplasia should have at least one time assessment for intracranial aneurysm with brain cta or mra
There is no fda approved drug for calciphylaxis but often use calcimimetic to suppress parathyroid hormone. Sometime use thiosulfate, an anti inflammatory agent can be used
Use dexamethasone cause catabolic effect and increase urea causing urea diuresis. Treat with increase water and decrease dexa dose
The differential diagnosis of rapid progressive GN is divided histologically into three patterns on immunofluorescence microscopy of the kidney biopsy like???
Pauci immune staining ANCA-mediated GN
Linear staining anti GBM GN
Granular staining Lupus nephritis
Treatment of igg4 related disease is prednisone
