O Renal Tests For Impact Of Dehydration

The physical Assessment Findings: The patient’s head, eyes, ears and nose are normal, however there is white patches on the buccal mucosa. The lymph nodes and carotid bruits are absent. Her heart beat at a regular rate and rhythm without murmur. Her lungs sound is diminished to auscultation with end expiratory wheezes, and dull percussion to the right lower lobe. Her anterior-posterior diameter of the chest wall is also increased. Her abdomen is benign. She has strong pedal pulses to all extremities without edema.

Water makes up more than half of the human body and is required for our cell systems to properly perform their necessary functions. Dehydration occurs when more water is lost than what is being taken in. Making sure we have the proper amount of fluids in our cells is vital to ensuring our bodies are able to properly perform their essentially necessary functions. Water acts like a cleanser, helping with the removal of harmful waste and possible deadly toxins. Our blood, which is made primarily of water, is responsible for carrying many nutrients to nearby waiting cells. Our immune system, which contains a fluid called lymph, is also made of water. If our immune system is affected by dehydration, it stops working properly and our body

Extraocular muscles are intact. Conjunctivae are without erythema. No drainage or discharge from the eyes. There is no involvement of the eyelid and the nearest lesion is approximately 1.5 to 2 cm lateral to the left eye. He does have multiple vesicular lesions, some of which he has rubbed and no longer have the vesicle and appear to be just almost shallow ulcerations. This extends along the temporal area, on the left side into the ear canal itself and I do see similar lesions in the ear. Again, many of which have been ruptured and there is dried blood all through the canal as well. There is no other abnormality noted. There is no wax. I can see the TM. It does not appear to be involved. There is no involvement behind the ear. No pain at the mastoid process. Mucous membranes are moist. There is no mucosal lesions. No

1.Full blood counts: To assess the Hb for evidence of anemia, WBC for evidence of infection.

Bill is a 79 year old patient living in a residential facility. After a recent physical therapy session he began experiencing pain on the left side of his head, as well as complaining of a headache. Although his vital signs showed to be normal, the doctor noticed exudate drainage leaking from his left ear. An ear culture was then taken with a swab and transported to the lab for further testing.

She denies sob, cp, h/a, chills, fever, abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting at this time.

Angela is a 36yo, G5 P3013, who was seen for an ultrasound evaluation and consultation for AMA. The patient is currently 36 but would be 37 at the time of her EDD. She does have a history of chronic HTN and reportedly is on labetalol 100 mg b.i.d. but in talking to her she has actually not filled the prescription yet and therefore has not started the medication. Her BP was 141/98 on her initial check and on repeat 140/92. Her urine evaluation is negative for protein. She does have asthma but is currently asymptomatic. Based on her height and weight at the start of the pregnancy, her BMI was 44. She also does smoke cigarettes at ½ pack per day. She was counseled on cessation.

Ears: External auditory canals clear, no cerumen. Tympanic membranes were intact no erythema, pearly gray in color, no discharge. Hearing grossly intact

non-distended, no hepatosplenomegaly, no mass. EXTREMITIES: No clubbing, cyanosis, or edema. Warm well perfused with +2 pulses symmetrically. NEUROLOGIC EXAM: Sensorium intact. Cranial nerves II thru XII intact with the exception of Cranial nerve VIII on the right ear. Normal strength, normal tone, no ticks or tremor, normal gait, and stance. Deep tendon reflexes +2 symmetrically throughout.

Your doctor may order laboratory tests to exclude other metabolic of infectious diseases that can produce similar symptoms. Commonly ordered blood tests include a CMP (comprehensive metabolic panel), CBC (complete blood cell count), and thyroid function studies, (TSH, free T4). They will also usually check a urine analysis and urine drug screen.

Lab tests include blood tests, used to detect anaemia and the increase in white blood cells which indicates inflammation (or infection), and stool tests where a sample of faeces is collected from a

Her medical history was significant for chronic kidney disease stage 4 on hemodialysis, hypertension, coronary artery disease, stable angina, respiratory failure on 2 L oxygen via nasal cannula, anemia in chronic kidney disease, and diabetes mellitus Type II with hyperosmolarity. She also had history of Staph epidermidis in June 2014.

The purpose of the experiment is to test the fluid balance in the body, by studying the osmotic regulation in the kidney (Manuguid, et al., 2015) Also, test the changes in urine pH, urine flow rate and specific density among non-drinking and drinking groups.
