Study Notes
Bowel Disorders
- Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease are classified as inflammatory bowel disorders.
Viral Hepatitis
- Hepatitis A and E are transmitted via the fecal-oral route; Hepatitis C and B are primarily bloodborne.
Congenital Birth Defects
- Cleft palate affects an infant’s ability to nurse or use a bottle effectively.
Gallstones
- Gallstones can lead to acute pancreatitis due to blockage of the pancreatic duct.
Jaundice
- Causes of jaundice include liver disease and gallstones obstructing bile ducts.
Urinary Tract Infections
- An ascending urinary tract infection can lead to pyelonephritis.
Electrolyte Imbalances
- Potassium levels are closely monitored in clients with chronic kidney disease.
Kidney Injury
- Postrenal kidney injury can result from ureter obstruction and enlarged prostate.
Kidney Filtration
- Filtrate flows through the kidneys from Bowman’s capsule to the proximal convoluted tubule, reaching the loop of Henle.
Chronic Disease Risk Factors
- Hypertension and diabetes are significant risk factors for kidney disease.
Glomerulonephritis
- Classic symptoms include proteinuria and hypertension.
Acute Renal Failure
- The oliguric phase is characterized by decreased urine output.
End-Stage Renal Disease Management
- Management includes erythropoietin administration but not potassium or high-protein diets.
Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy
- Symptoms include weak stream, nocturia, and difficulty initiating urination.
Flank Pain Assessment
- Dull flank pain and a palpable mass in the costovertebral angle may indicate renal cell carcinoma.
Types of Incontinence
- Stress incontinence is caused by increased intra-abdominal pressure during activities like coughing.
- Reflex incontinence results from neurological damage.
Cystitis Symptoms
- Common manifestations include dysuria and pelvic discomfort.
Hypospadias
- Urinary meatus is located on the ventral undersurface of the penis.
Post-Streptococcal Glomerulonephritis
- Urine may appear dark due to hematuria or the presence of proteins.
Endometriosis
- Defined by the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterus.
Menstruation Cessation
- Menstruation stops due to decreased estrogen secretion.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
- Characterized by hirsutism, amenorrhea, and infertility.
Balanitis
- Refers to inflammation of the glans penis.
Addison Disease
- Results in insufficient circulating cortisol, affecting adrenal hormones.
Hypercalcemia
- Most commonly occurs in hyperparathyroidism.
Myxedema
- Caused by a lack of thyroid hormone leading to non-pitting edema.
Cushing Syndrome
- Features excessive cortisol production, fluid retention, and characteristic moon face appearance.
SIADH
- Causes hyponatremia through increased sodium secretion and fluid retention.
Ketoacidosis
- Arterial blood gas values consistent with ketoacidosis include low pH (7.28) and low HCO3- (18 mEq/L).
