UTI commonly caused by |
E.Coli |
UTI |
|
Infection from perineal area can travel up the _____ |
muscosa tract intro bladder up the ureters up to kidneys |
UTI |
|
Lower UTIs: |
Cystitis (bladder) Urethritis (urethra) |
UTI |
|
Upper UTIs |
Pyelonephritis (kidney) |
UTI |
|
Etiology: more common in women |
shorter ureters and closer to anus |
UTI |
|
men |
prostatic hypertrophy (older men) retention |
UTI |
|
Etiology: Others |
congenital abnormalities in children, incontinence, retention, fecal contamination |
UTI |
|
Cystitis & Urethritis - Patho |
-hyperactive bladder & reduced capacity -red, inflamed, swollen bladder walls and urethra - ulcerated |
UTI |
|
Cystitis & Urethritis - S/S |
-dysuria, urgency, nocturia, -systemic signs of infection (fever, malaise nausea, leukocytosis) -pain in pelvic/lower abdomen area -cloudy urine |
UTI |
|
Pyelonephritis - Patho |
-one of both kidneys -from ureter into kidney -prulent exudate fill pelvis -recurrent or chronic can lead to scar tissue formation ( loss of tubule function, obstruction, renal failure) |
UTI |
|
Pyelonephritis - S/S |
flank/back pain, systemic: high temperature, dysuria, Cystitis S/S* too |
UTI |
|
UTIs Treatment |
antibacterial drugs (cipro), increase fluid intake, |
cranberry juice (preventative measures) |
|
Signs of systemic infection |
(fever, malaise, fatigue, nausea, leukocytosis) |
|
|
Inflammatory Disorders: Glomerulonephritis - Patho |
antistreptococcal antibodies formed d/t previous infection creating ANTIGEN-ANTIBODY COMPLEX causing inflammatory response in both kidney |
Inflammatory |
|
Glomerulonephritis - Etio |
happens after a streptococcal infection with certain strains of group usually originate as ( Upper resp. infection, middle ear infection, "strept throat") |
Inflammatory |
|
Glomerulonephritis- S/S |
-urine is dark & cloudy (d/t protein & RBC) -facial & peri-orbiatal edema -> generalized edema -BP elevated d/t increased renin recreation -flank or back pain |
Inflammatory |
|
Glomerulonephritis- Treatment |
-sodium restriction, (possible decrease fluid & protein intake in severe cases) -glucocorticoids reduce inflammation -antihypertensive reduce BP |
Inflammatory |
|
Signs of inflammation: |
malaise,headache, anorexia, nausea |
Inflammatory |
|
Urinary Obstructions: Urolithiasis (Kidney stones or Calculi)- Patho |
-can develop anywhere in tract -stone vary in sizes -forms when there is insoluble salts or insufficient fluid intake, UTIs -Manifestations only show when there is obstruction to flow of urine |
Urinary Obstructions Urolithiasis |
|
Obstruction of urine can lead to ___ |
infection, hydronephrosis with dilation of calyces, atrophy of renal tissue |
Urinary Obstructions Urolithiasis |
|
Urolithiasis (Kidney stones or Calculi)- Etiology |
Calculi composed of 75% calcium salt and the rest are uric acid, rates, calcium stone form when Ca+ lvl in urine are high d/t parathyroid tutor or metabolic disorders -forms readily when pH of urine is highly alkaline -inadequate fluid intake |
Urinary Obstructions Urolithiasis |
|
Urolithiasis (Kidney stones or Calculi)- Etio continue |
uric acid stones develop d/t high purine diet, cancer chemo, gout |
Urinary Obstructions Urolithiasis |
|
Urolithiasis (Kidney stones or Calculi)- S/S |
sometime flank pain radiating to groin, pain (nausea, vomiting, cool, moist skin, ) vigorous contraction of ureters to get stone out |
Urinary Obstructions Urtholithiasis |
|
Urolithiasis (Kidney stones or Calculi)- Treatment |
-small stones passes eventually drugs to dissolve stones -shockwave lithotripsy/laser lithotripsy -drugs to dissolve stones -treat underlying cause (adjust urine pH, increase fluid intake) |
Urinary Obstructions |
|
Urinary Obstructions: Hydronephrosis - Patho: |
secondary problem caused by: -complications of calculi -tumors, scar tissue in kidney/ureters -untreated large prostate -if not treated -> chronic renal failure |
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis |
|
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis - |
in kidney, continued build up of urine, over long time causes necrosis |
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis |
|
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis- Etio |
Renal Cell Carcinoma: primary tumor arise from tubule (renal core) - men & smokers common Bladder Cancer: malignant tumour of bladder |
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis |
|
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis - S/S |
- painless hematuria initially -dull, aching flank pain -unexplained weights -anemia |
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis |
|
Urinary Obstructions Hydronephrosis - Treatment: |
removal of kidney |
|
|
Acute Renal Failure- Patho |
-directly reduced blood flow, necrosis of tubule, obstruction, -lead to reduced GFR & oliguria (reduced) or anuria ( no output) -both kidney must be involved |
|
|
Acute Renal Failure- Patho |
-glomerulonephritis -severe/prolonged circulatory shock/heart failure results in tubules necrosis -ishemia (lack of blood supply) -nephrotoxins (chemical/drugs) -mechanical obstruction (calculi, tumors, blood clot) - blocking urine flow beyond kidney |
Renal Failure |
|
Acute Renal Failure- S/S |
-develops rapidly -elevated BUN & Creatinine -metabolic acidosis & hyperkalemia - |
Renal Failure |
|
Acute Renal Failure- Treatment |
-reverse primary problem -dialysis - maintain homeostasis, & fluid balance, |
Renal Failure |
|
Chronic Renal Failure - Patho |
Stages: Decreased renal reserve: decrease GFR, no clinical symptoms, high creatine lvls, Renal Insufficiency: elevated BP, decrease 20% of normal , retention of nitrogen waste, End-Stage failure: fluid, electrolyte waste retained in body, all body system effected, |
Renal Failure |
|
Chronic Renal Failure -Etio |
may result from: -chronic kidney disease, -congenital polycystic kidney disease -systemic disorders -low level exposure of nephrotoxin over time |
Renal Failure |
|
Chronic Renal Failure - S/S Early |
early signs:-bone marrow depression, impaired cell function-high bp-polyuria (frequency, nocturia)-anorexia, nausea, anemia, fatigue, weight loss, exercise intolerance |
Renal Failure |
|
Chronic Renal Failure - S/S Late |
Uremic signs: -oliguria (abnormal small urine) -peripheral neuropathy (abnormal sensation in lower limbs) -dry, hyper pigmented, easy bruising skin -CHF, arrhythmias -systemic infection - pneumonia - |
Renal Failure |
|
Chronic Renal Failure - Treatment |
-drugs stimulate erythropoiesis, reduce phosphate lvls, -hypertension, arrhythmias, heart failure & other complications -transplant & dialysis |
