Chronic Kidney Disease - Coggle Diagram
Chronic Kidney Disease
Multi-System Altered Function
Metabolic Dysfunction
Metabolic acidosis; inability to excrete acid, so it accumulates in blood
Hyperglycemia
Dyslipidemia
Hyperparthyroidism
Cardiac dysfunction
Hypertension from impaired sodium excretion
Heart failure
Arrhythmias
Erythropoietin production
Disruption in production--> decreased RBCs--->Anemia
Waste excretion
Impaired
Electrolyte Imbalance
Hyperkalemia; buildup of potassium due to lack of removal
GI
GI bleeding
Neuro complications
Neuropathy
Cognitive impairment
Clinical Manifestations
Uremia
Proteinuria
Anemia
Edema
Itchy/dry skin
Shortness of breath
Altered Physiology
Damage to the glomeruli
Decreased filtartion
Lowered GFR
End stage renal disease (if untreated)
Lack of waste filtration and excess fluids from the blood
Damage to the tubules and interstitial tissue
Caused by chronic inflammation, ischemia
Vascular damage
Renal blood vessel damage, hardening of renal arteries, decreased blood flow
Treatment/Restoration of Normal Function
Medications
Erythropoietin-stimulating
ACE inhibitors
Diuretics
Phosphate binders
Dialysis
Peritoneal dialysis
Hemodialysis
Transplant
Lifestyle Modifications
