The Language of Medicine 13th edition Davi-Ellen Chabner 1 Chapter 7 Urinary System 2 Chapter Goals (Slide 1 of 2) Name essential organs of the urinary system and describe their locations and functions. Identify common pathological conditions. Recognize how urinalysis is used and interpreted as a diagnostic test. Define urinary-system-related combining forms, prefixes, and suffixes. 3 Chapter Goals (Slide 2 of 2) List and explain clinical procedures, laboratory tests, and abbreviations that pertain to the urinary system. Understand medical terms in their proper contexts, such as medical reports and records. 4 Chapter 7 Lesson 7.1 5 Introduction (Slide 1 of 2) Nitrogenous wastes Urea Creatinine Uric acid 6 Introduction (Slide 2 of 2) Functions of the kidney Filter nitrogenous wastes to form urine; about 200 quarts of blood are filtered every day to form 2 quarts of urine Maintain proper balance of water, electrolytes (sodium, potassium), and acids Release hormones: Renin: enzyme important in adjusting blood pressure Erythropoietin (EPO): hormone that stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow Calciferol: active form of vitamin D necessary for the absorption of calcium from the intestine Degrade and eliminate hormones from the bloodstream 7 Anatomy of the Major Organs (Slide 1 of 4) Organs of the male urinary system: Kidney Ureter Urinary bladder Urethra 8 Anatomy of the Major Organs (slide 2 of 4) Organs of the male urinary system 9 Anatomy of the Major Organs (slide 3 of 4) Organs of the female urinary system: Kidney Ureter Urinary bladder Urethra 10 Anatomy of the Major Organs (slide 4 of 4) Female urinary system 11 QUICK QUIZ (Slide 1 of 8) 1.
