Stress, Renal & urological disorders

QuestionAnswer
catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine
where are catecholamines released from ? adrenal medulla by the sympathetic nervous system
stages of stress alarm, resistance, exhaustion
neurotransmitters released in resistance stage serotonin and tryptophan
allostatic load when stress over whelmes the body so much it becomes ill
allostatic overload cumulative stress in addition to poor adaptability -- causes chronic illness
HPA AXIS stress --> hypothalamus (CRH) --> anterior pituitary --> (ACTH in bloodstream) --> (ACTH receptors) --> adrenal gland & kidneys --> cortisol --> rises in blood and created negative feedback
what do kidneys do for the body glucose homeostasis, acid base balance, waste elimination, secretory function, vitamin D synthesis, calcium absorption
functional unit of the kidneys nephrons
GFR tells you the health of the kidney filter
normal GFR 90 -120 mL/ min
3 functions of the nephron filtration (glomerulus folds), reabsorption (tubules), secretion (collecting duct)
blood filtration blood pressure regulates this process, beginning of urine formation, a process that is used to filter excess fluids waste products, and solutes out of the blood and into the urine collecting tubules to be excreted from the body in urine
blood reabsorption in proximal convoluted tubule, filtrate is reabsorbed back into the capillaries that surrounds the tubules, kidneys asses the need for solutes and water and putting it back in the blood
blood secretion in distal convoluted tubule, filtrate that is not reabsorbed into the blood is delivered to the collecting ducts where it mixes with urea and taken to the bladder where itll be eliminated from body as urine
waste products urea, uric acids, creatinine, and drug metabolites
hormones that the kidneys regulate erythropoietin: creating RBCs
how do kidneys get ischemic injury? sloughing of nephron tubule cels into the nephron lumen --> lumen becomes blocked, kidneys can't filter blood = urosepsis
clinical manifestations of kidney issues abdominal pain, CVT, hematuria, cola colored urine, proteinurea
urinalysis looking at appearance, concentration and content
normal UA 1.005- 1.030
if you see abnormal UA values, what does that mean? something is wrong with the filter
urine culture looks for bacteria- most be done clean catch or sterile
describe BUN composite of nitrogenous waste that needs to be secreted
4 ways to elevate BUN decrease in GFR, dehydration, extremely muscular people, high protein diet
serum creatinine kidneys dysfunciton
2 ways to collect serum creatinine 24 hour urine or blood
what is better to measure kidney function .. BUN or serum creatinine serum creatinine
urosepsis serious complication of UTI
uropathy obstruction of blood flow
hematuria blood in urine
azotemia increase of BUN in blood
uremia urine in the blood
creatinine chemical waste product of creatine/ muscle breakdown
intravenous pyelography injection of contrast material to elevate kidneys, ureter, bladder
diuresis large unconcentrated urine outflow
oliguria low urine out put -- <400 ml/24 hour or < 30ml/ 1 hour
vesicoureteral reflex pee moves backward from bladder to kidney
neurogenic bladder lack bladder control due to a brain or spinal disorder
hydronephorosis urine/ water back up in the kidney
hydrourter water back up in the urter
causes of acute kidney injury abrupt insult to the kidney
prerenal injury comes from a decrease in perfusion of the kidney
intrarenal injury damage to the nephron -- drugs, post streptococcal glomerulonephritis, lupus
post renal injury occurs from the blockage of the flow of urine out of the kidney -- from collecting ducts forward
4 phases of acute kidney injury initial insult, oliguria, diuresis, recovery
acute tubular necrosis ischemia and hypoxia damage to nephron
nephritic syndrome same as acute glomerulonephritis; it's an infection, primary cause streptococcal
how AGN affects glomerulus patho antigen antibody reaction damaged glomeruli leading to hyper mobility
symptoms of AGN protein loss, facial edema, oliguria, strep infection, dark urine
diagnose AGN high serum creatnine and BUN, UA: protein and WBCS
nephrotic syndrome damage to the glomeruli that causes a massive leakage of protein in the urine (protein is albumin)
nephrotic signs/ syndrome massive albuminiurea, hematuria, hyperlipidemia
renal caliculi kidney stones due to dehydration and high calcium
symptoms of renal caliculi extreme pain, hematuria, crystalluria
pyelonephritis infection in kidney
signs/ symptoms of pyelonephritis flank pain, tenderness, chills, fever
UA of pyelonephritis WBCs in urine, microscopic hematuria
polyscistic kidney disease fluid filled cysts in kidneys -- a genetic autosomal dominant genetic disorder
causes of end stage renal disorder or CKD diabetes mellitus, hypertension, polysistic kidney disorder
cystitis bladder infection
signs/ symptoms of cystitis comes with painful urination and frequency
treatment options for ESRD kidney transplant
stage 1 of ERSD kidney damage with normal or increased GFR (> 90 ml/min)
stage 2 of ERSD mild reduction of GFR (60-89)
stage 3 of ERSD moderate reduction (30-59) symptoms occur, serum CR & BUN increase
stage 4 of ERSD severe reduction in GFR (15-29)
stage 5 of ERSD kidney failure (<15)
bladder holds how much urine 300- 400 mL
common causes of urological disorders UTI, overactive disorder, enlarged prostate, pregnancy
most common cause of hydronephrosis dilation of structures due to obstruction (kidney stone)
UTI in women more common, due to E. Coli, because urethera and anus are so close
UTI in men will be more common at age 60, due to enlargement of prostate
causes of hospital acquired UTI catherization, multi drug resistant pathogens, polymicrobial infection
types of urinary incontinence stress, overactive bladder, overflow incontinence, neurological bladder, functional incontinence
risks factors and symptoms of urinary incontinence age, obesity, stroke, neurological impairement
eustress good stress/ stress that is normal for the body
distress stress that stimulates a person negatively
functions of cortisol metabolize glucose, fat and amino acids to enhance muscle strength, stimulates WBC relrease from bone marrow initially, potent anti inflammatory effects, diminsihes immunity over long term
actions of epinephrine increase HR, BP, vasoconstriction of peripheral arteries and bronchodialation
