Acute kidney injury

and maintain vascular homeostasis. If the body is not well taken care of due to stressful lifestyle and not taking proper meals, endothelial cells can be inflamed and damaged leading to key disease such as artherosclerosis, heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease and Alzheimer's disease. Atherosclerosis is a lipid storage disease where too much of lipid is deposited in endothelial of arteries causing narrowing to prevent blood to flow. It is triggered by daily diet of consuming highly saturated fat

diagnoses included acute renal failure and congestive heart failure. She has not received any medical or surgical procedures with this admission to Baptist Health Richmond on 10/14/15. Her past medical and surgical history includes a hysterectomy and a cholecystectomy. She also has a pacemaker and a coronary stent. I will include the pathophysiology of her admitting diagnosis and the nursing care required for this patient in the next portion of this paper. Clinical Nursing Care Acute renal failure is

E Virus (HEV) was first recognized in 1983 as a spherical viral particle of 27-30 nm from stool of the infected volunteer suspected with non A non B hepatitis (Balayan et al., 1983). HEV infection may lead to acute hepatic failure especially in pregnant women and chronic liver patients. It causes chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis in immunocompromised patients (Kamar et al., 2008). It is endemic in many Asian and African countries

Acute lumbago Send this page to a friend Print Facebook Twitter Bookmark / Share Low back pain means a pain felt in the lower back. You may also have back stiffness, decreased movement of the lumbar region and difficulty standing up straight. Acute back pain can last from a few days to a few weeks. Causes Most people have at least one backache in your life. Although this pain or discomfort can occur anywhere on the back, the most common area affected is the lumbar region. This is because most

rate (GFR) and the development of HRS (Munoz, 2008). Classification of HRS: Type I: Cirrhosis with rapid progressive acute kidney injury. Type II: Cirrhosis with sub-acute renal failure. Type III: Cirrhosis with types I or II HRS on top of chronic kidney disease or acute kidney injury. Type IV: Fulminant liver failure with HRS. Diagnostic Criteria for HRS 1. Chronic or acute liver disease with progressed liver failure and portal hypertension. 2. Low GFR indicated by serum creatinine > 1.5 mg/dL

pathogenic mechanisms underlying the onset of kidney injury. In patients, unlike animal experiments, genetic heterogeneity represents a major challenge. In addition, animal models may not truly represent the high-risk patients, as animal

hemodynamic shock, hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis, and myoglobinuric acute renal failure. 7 Direct traumatic pressure initiates cell death through mechanical disruption of myocytes, followed by ischemic injury.7 After the release of pressure, ischemia reperfusion injury combined with an increase in vascular permeability cause edema of the skeletal muscles.4 A rapid rise in intracompartmental pressures (ICP) ensues leading to Acute Compartment Syndrome.10 Prolonged elevation of ICP greater than 35-40

United States (U.S.) (CDC,2012). According to National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC), as of July 2012 there have been more than 84,000 reports of adverse reactions, 1000 vaccine related deaths and over 1600 cases of Guillain- Barre syndrome, a acute form of paralysis, triggered by the vaccine (NVIC.ORG). A problem exists in the

detected in kidneys where they have been found to be crucial for renal development and normal physiological functions as well as significant contributors to the pathogenesis of renal disorders such as diabetic nephropathy, acute kidney injury, lupus nephritis, polycystic kidney disease, and others due to their effects on key genes involved in these disease processes. miRNAs have also emerged as novel biomarkers in these renal disorders. Due to increasing evidence of their actions in various kidney segments
