Presentation Transcript

  1. Diabetes Mellitis • inadequate secretion of insulin • without insulin, blood glucose levels are extremely high, and excess glucose remains in the nephron.

  2. The high osmotic gradient prevents water re-absorption and increases urine production. • Sugar is found in the urine

  3. Diabetes Insipidus • lack of ADH production • urine output increases up to 20L/day • no sugar in urine

  4. Nephritis • inflammation of the nephrons • Protein in the urine is a common symptom • The osmotic gradient also causes an increase in urine production. • Nephritis can lead to irreversible kidney damage and eventual kidney failure.

  5. Dialysis Hemodialysis • Artificial kidney machine connects to a vein and pumps blood through semipermeable tubes submerged in a solution to remove waste

  6. Dialysis • Peritoneal dialysis-a catheter is inserted through abdominal lining. • Fluid is injected to collect waste and is drained

  7. Kidney Stones • Crystallized oxalic acid and/or calcium and/or phosphate • Painful!

  8. Kidney Stones Treatment: • Surgical removal • Drugs to dissolve • Lithotripsy-shock waves

  9. In 2002 there were 48 transplants done in Edmonton. Kidney Transplant
