The urinary system consists of
2 kidneys

2 ureters

urinary bladder

urethra
urine specific gravity compared to plasma
Hyposthenuria < 1.008 (water > solids)
- Osmolality of urine is less than plasma

Isosthenuria 1.008 – 1.012/1.014 (water = solids)
- Osmolality is = to plasma


Hypersthenuria > 1.012 (solids > water)
- Osmolality is more than plasma
renal cortex strx
Glomerulus (Bowman’s capsule)

Proximal convoluted tubule

Distal convoluted tubule

Cortical Collecting tubule or duct

Juxtaglomerular apparatus
what shape does the kidney come in
Bean shaped – carnivores, small ruminants, pig, horse left kidney

Heart shaped – horse right kidney

Lobed – bovine, hippo, rhino, pig (internally)
what do you need for IRIS staging (after you have diagnosed CKD)
2 serum creatinine values from well hydrated patient

2-3 urine protein:creatinine ratio

3 BP measurements
proteinura in IRIS staging
only includes renal proteinuria

based on UP:UC ratio
IRIS staging 1,2,3, 4
stage 1
- plasma creatinine < 125 (< 1.6 mg/dl)
- renal fxn remaining 100%


stage 2
- plasma creatinine 125-180 (1.6 - 2.8 mg/dl)
- renal fxn remaining 33%


Stage 3
- plasma creatinine 180-440 (2.8-5 mg/dl)
- renal fxn remaining 25%


stage 4
- plasma creatinine > 440 (> 5 mg/dl)
- renal fxn remaining < 10%
IRIS staging proteinuria (dogs)
Non-Proteinuric = UP/UC < 0.2

Borderline Proteinuric = UP/UC 0.2-0.5

Proteinuric = UP/UC > 0.5
IRIS staging proteinuria (cats)
Non-Proteinuric = UP/UC < 0.2

Borderline Proteinuric = UP/UC 0.2-0.4

Proteinuric = UP/UC > 0.4
