Complications of Kidney failure • Fluid retention. This may lead to swollen tissues, congestive heart failure or fluid in your lungs (pulmonary edema). Dr.Salwa Elbadry
A sudden rise in potassium levels : • This could impair the heart's • ability to function and may • be life-threatening. • Weak bones that fracture • easily. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Anemia. • Stomach ulcers. • Damage the central • nervous system. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Renal Failure Definition :- Renal failure is a gradual and progressive loss of the ability of the kidneys to:- .Excrete wastes, .Concentrate urine, .and conserve electrolyte. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Causes of acute renal failure:- Pre Renal Renal Post Renal • Hypovolemia • polycystic kidney disease • Tumor • Drugs • Calculi • A.pyelonephritis • Stricture • Toxins • A.gloumerulnephritis • Multiple-organ failure • Prostatic hypertrophy Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Phases:- • Initiation phase:- (1-2 days) The time from renal insult to recognition of decrease GFR. • Oliguric phase ( maintenance phase 1-2 week) The period of time during which oliguria persists . -It is most life – threatening period Hyperkalemia Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Polyuric phase:- Diuretic phase Progressive increase in urine volume • Functional recovery phase:- 3-12 months The patient repairing the renal injury & return to normal. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Signs & Symptoms:- • Urine analysis…………. • Hydration condition………. • Vital Signs…………. • Investigations……………. • GIT manifestations……….. • CNS manifestations………….. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Chronic Renal Failure:- Is progressive , irreversible deterioration in renal function. Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Investigation • A urine analysis • Creatinine levels progressively increase. • BUN is progressively increased. • Creatinine clearance progressively decreases. • Potassium test may show elevated levels. • Arterial blood gas and blood chemistry • analysis may show metabolic acidosis Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Acute Versus Chronic • Acute • sudden onset • rapid reduction in urine output • Usually reversible • Tubular cell death and regeneration • Chronic • Progressive • Not reversible • Nephron loss • 75% of function can be lost before its noticeable
Radiological investigations • Abdominal ultrasounds • Abdominal CT scan • Abdominal MRI scan Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Management:- 1. prevention…………………. Treatment:- 1. Renal replacement therapy. 2. Monitor serum electrolyte level. 3. Control hemodynamic condition. Dr.Salwa Elbadry

Ulcers • Hemorrhage • Anemia • Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, liver failure • Decreased functioning of white blood cells • Decreased immune response • Increased incidence of infection • Peripheral neuropathy Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Seizures • Encephalopathy, nerve damage, dementia • Weakening of the bones • Fractures • Joint disorders • Changes in glucose metabolism • Electrolyte abnormalities including hyperkalemia Dr.Salwa Elbadry
Miscarriage, menstrual irregularities, infertility • Decreased libido, impotence • Skin dryness, itching/scratching with resultant skin infection . Dr.Salwa Elbadry
