A patient presenting with which symptom of a renal
calculi would likely warrant the patient needing surgical or
procedural interventions to eradicate the stone , rather than the
patient being able to pass the stone independently
The patient was under acute renal failure for which the patient
underwent renal dialysis to externally filter the blood via
osmosis. Dialysis involves the passage of arterial blood through a
tube with a semi-permeable outer membrane. This membrane only
allows ions/metabolites/electrolytes and water to pass through.
Surrounding the tube is another larger tubing containing dialysate
(assume pure water). Answer the following questions regarding
osmosis and the function that dialysis serves in this case.
a.In which direction is the driving force...
Think like a nurse(1) What is the primary problem that your patient is most likely
presenting?(2) what nursing priorities will give your plan of care?( if
more than one list in order of priority)(3) What interventions will you initiate based on this
priority?(a) Nursing intervention (b) Rationale (c) Expected
outcome(4) What is the rationale for treatment and expected outcomes
for medical management of the priority problem?(a) Care provider
orders (b) rationale (c) expected outcome

94. When recording fluid output, you should write down

The health care provider diagnoses the patient as having chronic renal failure. What most likely led to the patient developing this condition? Explain your answer.
1.
if a person is in renal failure, would blood test likely show
hypokalemia or hyperkalemia?
2. would erythrocyte casts in the urine indicate glomerular or
tubule disease?
The same day, another patient arrives at the ER also needing a
blood transfusion. The patient has type 0- blood. What are all
possible blood types this person can receive? Again, include
concepts of blood typing and donor/recipient info to justify your
answer. Finally, why are people with type 0- blood medically
important?
If a patient has renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the renal
artery) due to atherosclerosis, what is the impact of this on GFR?
Specifically, be sure to discuss the impact on the afferent and/or
efferent arterioles as well as effects on hydrostatic and/or
oncotic pressure.
