Excretion rate=
Excretion rate= Filtration Rate-Reabsorption Rate+Secretion Rate
The urine entering bowman’s capsule has the______________ as the plamsa of the blood
The urine entering bowman’s capsule has the same composition of ions as the plamsa of the blood
Azotemia
Increased BUN(blood Urea nitrogen), creatinine
Increased BUN(blood Urea nitrogen), creatinine
Azotemia
Azotemia + more problems(GI, nervous, cardiac)
Uremia
Azotemia+ GI problems(Gastroenteritis, bleeding, acute pancreatitis)
Azotemia+ Peripheral neuropathy
Azotemia+ Fibrinous pericarditis
Glomerulopathies
Disorders that directly affect the glomerulus and are the most common cause of kidney failure.
Symptoms include decreased GFR(decreased urine output, elevated plasma creatinine,urea)
A pt. has decreased urine output and elevated plasma creatinine, urea. After performing a renal biopsy/clearance data/urine analysis you determine that the pt has…
Glomerularopathies(glomerular injury)
Two main classes of glomerulopathies:
Secondary classes of glmoerulopathies:
Two main classes of glomerulopathies: Nephrotic/ Nephrosis syndrome & Nephritic/nephritis syndrome
Secondary classes of glmoerulopathies: Lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, DIC w/ thrombotic microangiopathy
Damage to glomerular membrane resulting in enlargement of fenestrations between endothelial cells and/or slit pores of epithelial cells.
Leads t excretion of 3.5g+ protein in urine/day.
Caused by hypertension, diabetes mellitus destruction of capillary beds, Lupus /rheumatoid arthritis immune disorders.
Nephrotic Syndrome/Nephrosis
Name the three types of Nephrosis
Minimal change disease
Focal segmental
Membranous
Clinical manifestations of Nephrosis/Nephrotic syndrome
Edema(especially in eyes and face)
Hypotension
Treatments for nephrosis/nephrotic syndrome
Anti-inflammatory steroids
Anti-immune drugs if antibody related
Treat condition(diabetes)
High protein diet
This type of nephrosis is most common in children. Few changes are discernable with microscope, but loss of foot processes of podocytes. Has a good prognosis
Type 1 Nephrosis
Children
Few discernable changes(podocyte foot loss)
Good prognosis
This type of nephrosisis characterized by scarring of the glomerulus, relates to the 3 H’s(HIV, Heroin, Hypertension), and has a poir prognosis
Type 2- Focal segmental glomerulus
This type of Nephrosis is autoimmune activated, has deposition of antibodies on basement membrane, and increased membrane permiability/thickening
Type 3- Membranous glomerulonephritis
Autoimmune
Deposition of antibodies
Permiability&thickening
Defining characteristics of each type of nephrosis
Type 1 minimal change:
Type 2 Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis:
Type 3 membranous:
Defining characteristics of each type of nephrosis
Type 1 minimal change: most common in children
Type 2 Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis: Scarring of glomerulosclerosis
Poor prognosis
3H’s
Type 3 Membranous glomerulonephritis: Autoimmune, antibodies, thickening/loss of permiability
Nephritis
Inflamation of glomerulus.
Symptoms: slight proteinuria, Hematuria, Azotemia, Hypertension
resulting from immunologic abnormalities
drugs/toxins
vascular disorders
systemic disease
viral causes.
Name the 4 types of Nephritis
1) acute postinfectious
2) IgA nephropathy
3) RPGN
4) Chronic
Type 1 Nephritis: Acute postifectious glomerulonephritis
Causes:
Treatment:
Type 1 Nephritis: Acute postifectious glomerulonephritis
2-3 weeks after strep
antigen-antibody complexes collect on glomerular membrane slowing GFR and cauing inflammation
Treatment: Antibiotics, antiinflammatory steroids, dialysis in noncorrected
Type 2 Nephritis: IgA nephropathy(Berger disease)
Cause:
Treatments
Type 2 Nephritis: IgA nephropathy(Berger disease)
Form of acute glomerulonephritis
2-3 days after URT or GI viral infection
IgA binds glomerular mesangial cells= proliferation
Treatment: Anti inflam, biotics, dialysis
Type 3 Nephritis: Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
Causes
Treatment
Type 3 Nephritis: Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
Goodpasture syndrome
Causes: antibodies against basement membrane formed
Treatment: anti inflammatory/ immune drugs if autoimmune, kidney transplant
Type 4 Nephritis: Chronic Glomerulonephritis
Defomotion:
Cause:
Manifestations:
Treatment:
Type 4 Nephritis: Chronic Glomerulonephritis
Slow progressive loss of renal fxn. From diabetes mellitis, hypertension, autoimmunity
Manifestations: Tubular atrophy, slight proteinuria, waxy RBC casts in urine
Treatment: Autoimmune meds
_______ is an inflammatory lesion caused by invasive kidney infection, usually ascends from UTI e.coli/ proteus, and causes fever/flank pain. There are two types: complicated and uncomplicated. E.coli is high in _______
Pyelonephritis is an inflammatory lesion caused by invasive kidney infection, usually ascends from UTI e.coli/ proteus, and causes fever/flank pain. There are two types: complicated and uncomplicated. E.coli is high in uncomplicated
Fanconi syndrome
Disease of proximal tubule associated with loss of reabsorption of glucose, AAs, phosphate.
May be inherited or aquired
Urine has more extretion molecules, blood has less
