CRN EXAM 2024 WITH ANSWERS
Vitamin D enhances what nutrient absorption - Answer✔️
✔️Calcium
prerenal injury - Answer✔️ ✔️Occurs before the kidney. Associated with a decrease or interruption of
blood supply to the kidneys.
nephrotic syndrome definition - Answer✔️✔️ loss of large amounts of plasma protein, usually albumin,
through urine due to an increased permeability of the glomerular membrane
How much protein is lost in nephrotic syndrome - Answer✔️
✔️More than 3 g/day (normal is 150 mg)
signs of nephrotic syndrome - Answer✔️ ✔️ Proteinuria (makes urine frothy), hypOalbuminEMIA causing
edema bc less albumin in blood since it is being urinated out, hyperlipidemia bc of increased liver
lipoprotein synthase to add proteins to compensate for loss of albumin as osmotic regulator in blood,
fatty casts
Complications: hypercoagulability bc of loss of antithrombin III in urine. Also increased risk of infection
bc of loss of immunoglobulins.
albuminuria protein losses - Answer✔️
✔️Moderate - 30 mg/day
Severe - up to 300 mg/day
Albuminuria treatment - Answer✔️
✔️Steroids, ace inhibitors, immunosuppressive drugs
CKD 1 + 2 MNT - Answer✔️
✔️0.8 g/kg pro
Lowered sodium
