Regulation of water excretion
Regulation of electrolyte function
Regulation of acid-base balance—retain
HCO3- and excrete acid in urine
Regulation of blood pressure--RAAS
Regulation of RBCs
Vitamin D synthesis


Secretion of prostaglandin E and prostacyclin
which cause vasodilation, important in
maintaining renal blood flow
Excretion of waste products-body’s main
excretory organ. Urea, creatinine, phosphates,
uric acid and sulfates. Drug metabolites.
Stimuli for Renin Excretion
Angiotensinogen in liver
Renin release
Angiotensin I
Converting enzyme in lungs
Angiotensin II
Renal autoregulation
Increased BP, increased circulating volume






Renin—raises BP
Bradykinins—increase blood flow and vascular
permeability
Erythropoietin
ADH
Aldosterone—promotes sodium reabsorption
and potassium excretion
Natriuretic hormones—released from the
cardiac atria and brain.


GFR decreases following 40 years with a yearly
decline of about 1 mL/min
Renal reserve declines
Multiple medications can result in toxic
metabolites
Diminished osmotic stimulation of thirst
Incomplete emptying of bladder
Urinary incontinence





Sp. Gravity—1.005-1.020
Microscopic examination for protein, RBCs,
ketones, glycosuria, presence of bacteria,
general appearance and odor
Leukocyte esterase—enzyme found in WBCs
Nitrites –bacteria convert nitrates to nitrites
Osmolality—accurate measurement of the
kidney’s ability to concentrate urine. Normal
range is 500-1200 mOsm/kg.
Culture important in ‘Id’ing pathogen



Albuminuria—albumin in urine not
measurable by dipstick
Normal values in freshly voided sample should
range between 2.0-20 for men and 2.8-28 for
women. Higher levels indicate
microalbuminuria.
Can also be determined by 24h specimen




Urine osmolality—indication of concentrating
ability, changes seen early in disease processes
Creatinine clearance—tests clearance of
creatinine in one min. Reflects GFR.
Serum creatinine—measures effectiveness of
renal function. 0.6 to 1.2 mg/dL
Urea nitrogen—also indicator of renal function.
7-18 mg/dL. Measures renal excretion of urea
nitirogen, a byproduct of protein metabolism.
Is not always elevated with kidney disease. Not
best indicator of renal function.


Liver must function properly to produce urea
nitrogen. BUN levels indicate the extent of
renal clearance of this nitrogenous waste
product.
May see elevation of BUN with bleeding into
tissues or from rapid cell destruction from
infection/steroids



Ratio of BUN to creatinine distinguishes
between renal and non-renal factors causing
elevations
Dehydration can affect the BUN
When blood volume is down, or BP is low,
BUN level rises more rapidly than creatinine
level.



Volume of fluid filtered from renal glomerular
capillaries into Bowman’s capsule per unit of
time
Generally expressed in ml/minute
Normal GFR generally is 125mL/minute




Cockcraft-Gault formula
Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study
Group formula (MDRD)
Schwartz formula
Starling equation


No common pathologic condition, other than
renal disease, increases the serum creatinine
level
Serum creatinine does not increase until at least
50% of renal function is lost
Is a calculated measure of glomerular filtration
rate. Is best indicator of overall kidney
function.
 Based on 24 hour urine collection
 Midway will obtain serum creatinine. Serum
creatinine levels vary with age, gender and
body muscle mass
 Calculate: (Volume of urine X urine creatinine)
Divided by serume creatinine

Initiation occurs with the insult
Oliguria with urinary output less than
400ml/24h . rising potassium, BUN, Cr. Not
responsive to fluid challenges.
Diuresis period— gradual increase in urinary
output. Beginning recovery. Renal function
gradually improves
Recovery—may take 3-12 months. May have
permanent reduction in functioning of 1%-3%.


Prerenal-hypotension, tachycardia, decreased
CO, decreased urinary output, lethargy
intrarenal and postrenal—oliguria or anuria,
hypertension, tachycardia, SOB, orthopnea,
n/v, generalized edema and weight gain,
lethargy, confusion

Nonoliguric form also exists. Phases are
similar.







Elevated BUN and creatinine
Sodium retention but may be deceptive due to
water retention
Potassium increased
Phosphorus increased
Calcium decreased
H&H decreased
Sp. Gravity decreased and fixed
Objectives : Restore normal
chemical balance and prevent complications
until restoration of renal function
 Identify and treat underlying cause
 Maintain fluid balance—wts, serial CVP
readings, BP, strict I&O
 May give Mannitol, Lasix or Edecrin
 May need temporary dialysis



If prerenal, fluid challenges and diuretics to
enhance renal blood flow
Oliguric renal failure, low dose dopamine.
Calcium channel blockers may be used to
prevent influx of calcium into kidney cells,
maintains cell integrity and increase GFR






Hyperkalemia—closely monitor electrolytes
Kayexalate/Sorbitol—may need Flexiseal
IV dextrose, insulin and calcium may help shift
K+
Cautious administration of any medication that
can be nephrotoxic
Monitor ABGs and acid-base balance
Monitor phosphate levels




Azotemia and uremia are directly related to the
rate of protein breakdown
Dietary proteins are individualized to each
patient. Is a catabolic state and if insufficient
intake, patient may lose up to 0.5-1 pounds
daily. Encourage high CHO. Protein needs for
non-dialysis patients need 0.6g/kg of body
weight
Dialysis patients will need 1-1.5g/kg
Fluid restriction=urine volume plus 500ml






Monitor fluid and electrolyte balance
Reduce metabolic demands
Promote pulmonary function
Prevent infection

Provide support



Progressive, irreversibe deterioration in renal
function
Causation: #1 diabetes mellitus, hypertension,
glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis, polycystic
kidney disease, vascular disorders, others
Uremia---collection of nitrogenous wastes
normally excreted by the kidneys. S/S include:
HA, seizures, coma, dry skin, rapid pulse,
elevated BP, scanty urine, labored breathing






Nephrons hypertrophy and work harder until
70-80% of renal function is lost
Nephrons could only compensate by
decreasing water reabsorption thus:
Hyposthenuria—loss of urine concentrating
ability occurs
Polyuria—increased urine output
Then isosthenuria—fixed osmolality
Gradual decline in urinary output

6. Remove toxic substances




Based on principles of diffusion, osmosis and
ultrafiltration
Diffusion—removal of toxins and wastes.
Move from blood to dialysate.
Osmosis—excess water is removed. Goes from
area of higher solute concentration (blood) to
lower concentration (dialysate)
Ultrafiltration—water moves from high
pressure area to lower pressure. Applied by
negative pressure, more efficient than just by
osmosis

Anemia and fatigue
Gastric ulcers
Renal osteodystrophy
Sleep problems
Hypotension
Muscle cramps
Dysrhythmias
Dialysis equilibrium from cerebral fluid shifts




Caused by rapid decrease in fluid volume and
blood urea nitrogen levels during HD
Change in urea levels can cause cerebral edema
and increased ICP
Neurologic complications include: HA,
vomiting, restlessness, decreased LOC,
seizures, coma or death
Can be prevented by starting HD for short
periods and low blood flows



Hemodialysis
In ICUs where patient is too unstable to have
hemodialysis, can have CRRT
Peritoneal dialysis





More successful if done before dialysis

Patient must be free from infection
Similar care for patient post-op as any surgery




Post-op—assess for s/s of rejection such as
oliguria, edema, fever, increasing blood
pressure, weight gain and swelling or
tenderness over transplanted area
Monitor creatinine level, in those on
cyclosporine, may be the only s/s
Monitor WBCs
Monitor urinary output, may need
hemodialysis temporarily (2-3 weeks may
initially have ATN)

extent, duration and effects of atherosclerosis,
htn and neuropathy.



Stage 1—at time of diagnosis of diabetes.
Kidney size and GFR are increased. Blood
sugar control can reverse the changes.
Stage 2, 2-3 years after diagnosis. Basement
membrane changes result in loss of filtration
surface area and scar formation. These changes
are called glomerulosclerosis.



Stage 3, 7-15 years after diagnosis.
Microalbuminuria is present. GRF may be
normal or increased.
Stage 4, albuminuria is detectable by dipstick.
GRF decreased. BP is increased. Retinopathy is
present.
Stage V, GFR decreases at an average rate of
10ml/min./year
