AKI stages -names |
Initiating phase, oliguric phase, diuretic phase, recovery phase |
|
Initiating stage (AKI 1) |
kidney injured, urine volume down, anorexia, lethargy, nausea, HA, muscle cramps, fatigue |
|
Oliguric phase (AKI 2) |
Renal repair begins as tubular cells regenerate; nephrons become obstructed with inflammatory products; decrease in GFR, tubular transport of substances, urine formation, and renal clearance; the longer this stage persists, the poorer the prognosis 5-15 days |
|
Diuretic phase |
BUN falls, urine output >400mL/day |
|
Recovery stage (4th stage) |
Extends from the time BUN is stable and urine output normal to the day the patient returns to normal activity (can take 10 months) Can progress to chronic renal failure |
|
Bladder cancer risk factors |
smoking, presence of renal tumors, exposure to aromatic amine dyes, arsenic, chronic use of phenacetin-containing analgesics, chronic lower UTI, recurrent nephrolithiasis |
