Clean Catch
|
a procedure where in females, the labia are washed with soap and water or a mild antibacterial agent, dried and the specimen is collected (by voiding) in a sterile container, males wash similar manner

Rx-antibiotics |
|
|
Uremia
|
Toxic condition associated with renal insufficiency produced by the retention in the blood of nitrogenous substances normally excreted by the kidneys
Rx-dialysis |
|
|
Dialysis
|
waster material such as urea are separated from the bloodstream when the kidneys no longer function.
|
|
|
Two Types of Dialysis
|
1. hemodialysis uses the artificial kidney machine that recieves wastefilled blood from the patient's bloodstream, filter is, and returns the dialysed blood to the patients body
|
|
|
Other type of dialysis
|
2. peritoneal dialysis using a peritoneal catheter, fluid is introduced into the peritoneal cavity. The fluid causes wastes in the capillaries of the peritoneum to pass out of the bloodstream and into the fluid. Fluid with wastes is then removed by catheter
|
|
|
Renal Transplantation
|
a kidney is transplanted into a patient with renal failure from an identical twin (isograft) or other individual (allograft). Best results occur when the donor is closely related to the recipient, and better than 90% of the kidney's survive for 1 year or longer
|
|
|
Nephrolithiaisis
|

|
|
|
Pyelolithotomy
|
removal of calculi from kidney pelvis
|
|
|
