Definitions
CRF = Chronic Renal Failure permanent loss of nephrons and renal function Erythropoietin = Hormone produced by kidneys and regulates production of RBCs Filtrate = Liquid entering the nephron Filtration = Movement of liquid through a membrane (like a sieve), allows only small molecules & liquids to pass through. Movement is from higher to lower pressure GFR = Glomerular Filtration Rate amount of filtrate produced each minute Glomerulus = Filtration system of the nephron, composed of capillaries surrounded by a thin double-walled capsule, doublecalled Bowmans Capsule
Main Menu
Definitions
Lysosome = Membrane bound organelles, within the cell, containing hydrolytic enzymes - involved in intra & extracellular digestion Mesangial Cells = Supporting cells of glomeruliglomeruliproduce intracellular substances Nephron = Functional unit of the kidney Reabsorption = Movement of substances from the filtrate back into the blood Renal Corpuscle = Glomerulus and surrounding epithelial capsule. Secretion = Active transport of solutes into the nephron

Renal Structure
Each
kidney has a renal pelvis (divided into major & minor calyces), renal cortex calyces), (the outer portion) & renal medulla (lies under the cortex) Within the renal medulla there are many renal pyramids that consist of multiple nephrons (the functional units of the kidney) The renal pelvis collects the urine & passes it to the ureter

Urine Formation
Efferent
arteriole constriction causes the blood in the glomerulus to be under high pressure. Filtrate: the water and other small molecules that move into the glomerular capsule. Approximately 45 gallons of filtrate are produced each day. Most of the water and molecules are reabsorbed along the tubules as the filtrate passes through.

Risk Factors
Age > 60 years Race or ethnic background AfricanAfrican-American Hispanic American Indian Asian History of exposure to chemicals/toxins Cigarette smoke Heavy metals Family history of chronic kidney disease
Main Menu
Pathophysiology of CRF
Progressive destruction of nephrons leads to: a. Decreased glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption & renal hormone regulation b. Remaining functional nephrons compensate c. Functional and structural changes occur d. Inflammatory response triggered e. Healthy glomeruli so overburdened they become stiff, sclerotic and necrotic
Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (2005). Pathophysiology A 2-1 reference for nurses (1st ed.) Ambler, Pa.:Lippincott Williams & Wilkins

Metabolic Impact
common in CRFCRFespecially in Nephrotic Syndrome Excessive lipids accelerate progression of renal disease Cholesterol increases glomerular injury
Hyperlipidemia
Main Menu
Contributing Mechanisms
Two known paths of hyperlipidemia progression in CRF:
Hyperlipidemia
mesangial cells Increased synthesis of lipoproteins in the liver related to increased albumin production
Main Menu
Main Menu
Albumin Contribution
Normal glomeruli structure limits proteins from filtering through the urine
Progression of glomeruli injury leads to increased capillary filtration of albumin The liver compensates and increases albumin production - to replace albumin lost in urine This leads to increased synthesis of lipoproteins by the liver secondary to the compensatory increase in albumin production. Results in increased LDL levels predisposing to atherosclerosis Atherosclerosis further increases glomeruli injury
Main Menu
Inflammation
Inflammatory
response can be triggered by: tissue injury, infections, toxins, immune responses and/or Angiotensin II Can be acute or chronic Can affect the renal pelvis and interstitial tissue as in pyelonephritis Can affect the glomeruli as in glomerulonephritis
Main Menu
Inflammation- (Cont.)
Renal Failure- prolongs inflammatory reactions Failure Adverse effects of chronic inflammation= Decreased appetite Muscle and fat wasting Endothelial damage Atherosclerosis Hypoalbuminemia Increased cardiovascular disease risk

Main Menu
Syndromes - glomerular disorders that affect the glomerular capillary membrane & increases permeability to plasma proteins Nephritic Syndromes glomerular disorders that initiate the inflammatory response within the glomeruli & initially decreases permeability of the membrane
Main Menu
Nephritic Syndromes
Glomerulonephritis An inflammatory response in the endothelial, epithelial & mesangial cells of the glomeruli Inflammatory process damages the capillary wallwall-allowing RBCs into the urine Symptoms: 1st oliguria, followed by hematuria, azotemia, low GFR (d/t hemodynamic changes), hypertension
Main Menu
Nephrotic Syndromes
Primary causes: Lipoid Nephrosis Focal Segmental glomerulosclerosis Membranous glomerulonephritis Secondary causes: Diabetes Mellitus SLE Amyloidosis Characterized by: Proteinuria > 3.5g/day Lipiduria Hypoalbuminemia Hyperlipidemia Increased permeability of glomerular membrane allows proteins to escape into the filtrate
Main Menu
Chronic Glomerulonephritis
A slow, progressive disease that can be caused by primary ( Nephrotic & Nephritic Syndromes) or secondary disorders ( SLE, Good pasture's) Typically develops asymptomatically over many years Hypertension, proteinuria and hematuria exhibited with progression of disease Late stages display uremic symptoms of azotemia, nausea, vomiting, dyspnea and pruritis Leads to CRF Treatment includes: control of hypertension, control of fluid/electrolyte imbalances, reduce edema, prevent heart failure
Main Menu
Pharmacology in CRF
Pharmacokinetics drug absorption, distribution, metabolism & excretion Pharmacodynamics A drugs mechanism of action and effect at the target site
Main Menu
Gastrointestinal impairments affect absorption of medications Volume of distribution (Vd) the availability of a drug distributed in body tissues is increased or decreased by alterations in body composition or protein binding Metabolism of medications altered -the kidneys produce many enzymes involved in drug metabolism including cytochrome P-450 PDecreased glomerular filtration rate affects drug excretion
Main Menu
Dilantin increased Vd related to protein binding changes and low albumin, increasing risk of drug toxicity Digoxin increased Vd leading to toxicity due to decreased renal excretion Insulin metabolism of insulin decreases, requiring dose reduction Tylenol and procainamide liver metabolized drugs with metabolites that are excreted renally, can accumulate leading to drug toxicity

Question #1
Based on this persons symptoms, history and lab work What do you think her diagnosis would be? 1. CRF 2. ARF 3. CHF 4. Influenza
Main Menu
Answer
The correct answer is # 1 chronic renal failure (CRF) Symptoms progressively worsening x several months : all 3 indicative of renal failure Elevated creatinine Elevated BUN
Main Menu
Question #2
Which compensatory mechanism causes the increased fluid retention, increased sodium and elevated blood-pressure? blood1. 2. 3. 4.
Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS) Bone Marrow suppression Deregulation of baroreceptors Suppression of Sympathetic Nervous System
Main Menu
Answer
#1 RAAS- Renin Angiotensin RAASAldosterone System is correct Reduced renal blood flow due to HTN, epithelial damage and stenosis causes the kidneys to secrete renin activating the system over and over- the end result is fluid and sodium retention which further increases blood pressure.
Main Menu
Question #3
Why is this chronic and not acute renal failure? Progressive over long period of time H & H <10 HCT < 30 Sodium of 137

Question #4
What risk factors in her history could lead to CRF? 1. African-American African2. HTN 3. Smoker 4. Obesity 5. All of the above 6. 1, 2 and 3
Main Menu
Answer
#5 All of the above is the correct answer. Mrs. Nephritis has an increased risk of renal failure related to her race and the smoking, HTN and obesity worsen the disease process
Main Menu
Question #5
Her risk factors as identified resulted in what happening to her kidneys?
1. 2. 3. 4.
Nephron destruction Vessel stenosis Sclerosis of the glomeruli All of the above
Main Menu
Answer
#4 is correct all of the above Renal failure progresses as nephrons are destroyed. Epithelial damage leads to sclerosis of the glomeruli and stenosis of the vessel walls
Main Menu
Question # 6
In a patient with renal failure it is important to avoid drugs that are essentially eliminated by the kidneys. True or False?
Main Menu
Answer
The answer is true. It is important to know how drugs are excreted, especially if by the kidneys and it is important to know or monitor the glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
