|
|
kidneys regulate fluid and electrolytes with the release of aldosterone and _____
|
ADH
|
|
kidneys regulate the BP by release of ______-angiotension
|
renin
|
|
the three types of acute renal failure include:
1. ____________ 2. intra-renal 3. post-renal |
pre-renal
|
|
3 stages of acute renal failure are:
1. Oliguria 2. ___________ 3. Recovery phase |
diuresis
|
|
________ renal failure is usually the end result of gradual tissue destruction and loss of renal function.
|
chronic
|
|
________renal failure, the sudden interruption of renal function, can be caused by obstruction, poor circulation, or underlying kidney disease.
|
acute
|
|
As the kidneys become unable to conserve sodium and water, the _______ phase, marked by increased urine secretion of more the 400 ml/ 24 hours, ensues.
|
diuretic
|
|
If the cause of the diuresis is corrected, azotemia gradually disappears and ______ occurs.
|
recovery
|
|
untreated prerenal _____ may lead to acute tubular necrosis.
|
oliguria
|
|
_______failure ensues when a condition that diminishes blood flow to the kidneys leads to hypoperfusion.
|
prerenal
|
|
__________is a consequence of renal hypoperfusion. The impaired blood flow results in decreased glomerular filtration rate and increased tubular reabsorption of sodium and water.
|
azotemia
|
|
__________ failure, also called intrinsic or parenchymal renal failure, results from damage to the filtering structures of the kidneys.
|
intrarenal
|
|
Bilateral obstruction of urine outflow leads to __________ failure. The cause may be in the bladder, ureters or urethra.
|
postrenal
