Renal Failure Name Institution History and symptoms - intrarenal acute renal failure Mr. Donovan’s condition is consistent to intrarenal acute renal failure. Due to his history with renal insufficiency and uncontrolled hypertension, it is more likely that he is suffering from intrarenal acute kidney injury. The patient has no history obstruction (postrenal) or with trauma (prerenal). Hypertension, as shown by the patient, is seen with an intrarenal acute renal failure while hypotension is…

Case Management Outcomes for Patients with Heart Failure (HF) The following components are recommended in chronic disease management: a multidisciplinary approach, early contact upon hospital admission and following discharge, access to treatment options, patient involvement with monitoring symptoms, and patient/family psychosocial support. Heart failure patients can be managed on an outpatient basis in a clinic or by tele health, depending on the severity of their illness. HF management…

today, Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is the most common. CHF is the failure of the heart to distribute adequate blood supply back to the body through the heart. The heart muscle is weakened and is no longer able to pump blood back through the heart and often becomes enlarged due to the workload it must take on. When the heart begins to fail, the lungs also tend to suffer. The lungs can fill with blood; which is known as pulmonary congestion. There are four types of heart failure that have been…

What is Congestive heart failure? Heart Failure (HF) is also known as Congestive heart failure (CHF). The disorder occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood to maintain blood flow to all parts of the body (Grimshaw & Khunti, 2015).It affects many people and causes numerous health problem in the developed world. Heart failure can affect 1-2% of the adult population and 6–10% of people over the age of 65 . This disease is associated with many visits to hospital, patients being re-admitted to…

Acute Renal Failure Acute Renal Failure is the sudden loss of kidney’s ability to eliminate excess salts, fluids, and waste material from the blood. When the kidney loses the ability to filter, the body fluids can rise in dangerous levels. Acute renal failure can be reversible as long as it is treated on time. Medication and other treatments can be essential to stop the progress of this disease. If this is not treated on time, it can progress to an end stage and eventually death.…

What is the Development of Acute Kidney Failure (AKF)? Acute kidney failure is a type of kidney failure that occurs when the kidneys suddenly lose their functions and become incapable of filtering wastes products from the blood. The chance of acquiring AKF is greater if the patient is already hospitalized. In addition, AKF develops quickly and require intensive treatment. On the other hand, the patients could recover normal renal function if their health are good. AKF is characterized by…

Introduction: Heart Failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome that affects the structural and functional capacity of the ventricle to load or expel blood. According to Ferri (2016, p. 576), the principal symptoms of HF are dyspnea and fatigue which can significantly reduce an individual's exercise tolerance. Due to the various signs and symptoms associated with HF, multiple pharmacotherapies including ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, calcium channel inotropic agents, and diuretics has been…

Congestive heart failure is a disease in which the heart is unable to adequately pump the blood of the heart to the rest of the body, and thus the blood is not circulated properly. The blood that is not circulated can do a backward overflow into the lungs, and create problems breathing. Congestive heart failure thus can create edema, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, coughing, and fatigue. The problem that a lot of the elderly congestive heart failure patients deal with is being…

Acute kidney failure “Acute kidney failure starts with the kidney(s) failure in the process of filtering waste products from the blood.” (Mayo Clinic staff, 2016). When the kidneys can no longer filter well enough, the wastes start to add up in the blood of the body and the blood levels become imbalanced. This can happen over a few days or in a short period of time. Acute kidney failure is very common in people who are already in the hospital or patients in intensive care units. “Causes of Acute…
