QuestionAnswer
terms that refer to the bladder micturition, voiding, and urination
bladder can hold how much urine? 600 ml
factors effecting elderly and voiding 1.decreased filtering ablity/ increasing drug toxicity 2. enlarged prostates 3.nocturia 4.loss of bladder muscle tone/ women 5. increased risk for UTI
primary psychosocial factors effecting voiding privacy, positioning, sufficient time
fluid and food that alter voiding alcohol and caffeine- increase urine increased sodium intake can cause fluid retention food can change color beets turn urine red
meds that effect voiding diuretics -increase production
nocturia urge to void that awaken one at night
polyuria increased output of urine
oliguria scant or decreased urine output
anuria kidneys are producing no urine
Diuresis increased urine formation
Physical assessments skin and mucus membranes-dry bladder-distented kidneys-flank pain urethral meatus- discharge,inflammation, and lesions intake/output-color,clarity,amount, odor
Normal urine outputs 30ml/hr 1200-1500mls daily
Muscle Tone –Long term catheter – decreases
ESRD end stage renal disease irreversible damage to the kidney tissues
Uremic syndrome increase in nitrogenous wastes in the blood
Renal replacement therapies dialysis, organ transplant
Alterations in urine elimination retention, UTI, incontinence, urine diversions-stomas
Urinary Retention is the inability of bladder to empty properly what are the Clinical manifestations? olgiuria and polyuria bladder distension
Bladder distension Bladder is palpable and displaced to one
List Interventions for alteration in urination Interventions • Measures to promote voiding – Privacy, running water, etc. • Catheterization may be necessary – Empty at 500mls then rest 5 – 10 min between emptying. • Crede΄s maneuver – Use with CAUTION
Involuntary Urination(It is a symptom not a disease) List Common causes • Common causes • UTI’s • Pregnancy • Volume overload • Delirium • Restricted mobility
teachings to help with Managing Urinary Incontinence • Keep a voiding diary • Kegel Exercises (especially for stress or urge incontinence) – Strengthens Pelvic Floor Muscles • Bladder Training
bladder training Voiding every 1-2 hours while awake Increase to every 2-3 hours then every 4-6 Encourage fluid intake 30 minutes before Avoid citrus juices, alcohol, and caffeine because they can cause bladder irritation
two types of UTI'S Cystitis and pyelonephritis
cystitis inflammation of bladder
cystitis signs and symptoms frequency, urgency, difficulty urinating, blood in urine,suprapubic pain and confusion in elderly
pyelonephritis inflammation of the kidneys
pyelonephritis signs and symptoms flank pain, pain at costalvertebral angle,frequency, urgency, difficulty urinating, blood in urine,suprapubic pain and confusion in elderly
diagnostic test for UTI's dipstick for leukocyte estorase and nitrates
treatment for UTI's anti-microbials, increase fluids and prevention
urinary diversions defined the surgical rerouting of urine from the kidneys to a site other than the bladder
incontinent urinary diversions Uterostomy Nephrosotmy Vesicostomy Ileal Conduit
continent urinary diversions koch pouch neobladder
suprapubic catheter May be temporary or become permanent – Maintain sterile dressing over site – May clamp to attempt normal voiding – Unclamp after voiding to measure residual urine
Urine Tests and Diagnostic Examinations Noninvasive exam:Intravenous pyelography (IVP) Invasive exam:Cystoscopy Manual exam: KUB (Kidneys, Uterers, Bladder)
Urinalysis Gram Stain (urine) Culture Specific gravity 1.0053 to 1.030 WBC with Differential 4,500-11,000/μL
Intravenous pyelography (IVP) IVP is an x-ray of the kidneys, ureters, and urinary bladder after an injection of a contrast medium. • Informed consent • Allergy to contrast medium ris
Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) 10-20 mg/100 mL End product of protein metabolism Increased levels may be caused by dehydration, V/D and digested blood • Excreted by the kidneys • Used to evaluate renal function
Creatinine 0.5-1.2 mg/100mL Endogenous waste product of skeletal muscle– Produced in relatively constant quantities by the muscles • Excreted by the kidneys • Amount of creatinine relates to renal excretory function
Catheterization Major risk for infection Only when absolutely necessary Straight Cath for urine retention Maintain closed urinary drainage system Perineal care daily Increase fluids
nephron functional unit of kidneys
proteinuria presence of large proteins in urine
erythropoietin functions w/i the bone marrow to stimulate rbc production
renin enzyme that converts angiotensinogen to angiotension 1
renal calculus kidney stone
reflex incontinence loss of voluntary control, micturition pathway intact
five factors that influence urination sociocultural, psychosocial,fluid balance, surgical procedures, diagnostic procedures
urinary diversion defined temporary or permanently bypass the bladder and urethra as exit routes for urine
ileal loop or conduit involves separating a loop of intestinal ileum w/ its blood supply intact. the ureters are implanted into isolated segment of ileum the remaining ileum is reconnected to rest of digestive tract
nephrostomy a tube placed directly into renal pelvis tract
hesitancy with urination due to enlarged prostate, anxiety, or urethral edema
dribbling with urination may be due to stress incontince
ph of urine 4.6-8.0
signs of diabetes found in urine sample protien,glucose,ketone bodies
urinalysis checks values for ph, protein,glucose,ketones,blood and specific gravity
specific gravity is the weight or degree of concentrate of a substance compared with egual volume
abdominal roentgenogram determines the size, shape, symmetry and location of the kidneys
IVP views the collecting ducts and renal pelvis and the outline of the urethra put on clear liquids until after test
endoscopy direct visualization, specimen collection or treatment of the interior bladder and urethra
anteriogram visualizes renal arteries and/or detects narrowing arteries
cystoscopy visualize and possible remove calculi from urinary bladder and distal ureters
lithotripsy using sound or shock waves to crush stones, is the preferred treatment of urinary calculi
renal biopsy is preformed by using a cystoscope, excising a wedge of kidney tissue, or through the skin using a biopsy needle (percutaneous route) use to determine cause of renal disease
techniques to stimulate micturition sound of running water stroking inner thigh pour warm water on perineum promote relaxation
functional incontinence urge to void that causes loss of urine
interventions for functional incontinence clothing modifications, bladder training, absorbant pads, environmental alterations
stress incontinence loss of urine due to intrabdominal pressure (cough, sneeze, laughter)
interventions for stress incontinence kegal exercises, surgical procedures, absorbant pads
mixed incontinence combo stress and urge treatment based on client
reflex incontinence lack of urge to void, unaware of bladder filling, reflex emptying when full
interventions for reflex incontinence intermitten catheter, condom catheter, crede's method
PFE/Kegal exercises Pelvic Floor Exercises and Kegal improve the strength of pelvis floor muscles
Difference between acute and chronic pyelonephritis acute- bacteria infection chronic- non-bacterial infections-chemical, metabolic,or immunological
difference between spatic bladder dysfunction and flaccid bladder disfunction spastic- loss of control flaccid- fullness perception lost
epididymitis infection and inflammation of the epididymis
pathophysiology of cath UTI'S The longer the cath in place greater risk for UTI the bacteria either enters through drainage bag and travels up tubing to the urethra or up the outer meatus into the urethra
