Renal Failure
� severe impairment or total lack of kidney
function
� little or no excretion of metabolic wasteproducts and water
� Acute
± Sudden and reversible� Chronic
± Slow and irreversible
8/6/2019 Renal Failure Critically Ill[1]
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/renal-failure-critically-ill1 4/86
4
Acute Renal Failure
� Abrupt decline in glomerular filtration rate
leading to:
± reduction of urine output (less than400
mL/day)
± build up of nitrogenous waste products
± inability to maintain acid-base and electrolyte
balance

Causes of Acute Renal Failure
1. Prerenal renal failure: ± 70%
± anything that decreases blood flow to the
kidneys
ETIOLOGY
� Intravascular volume depletion (hypovolemia)
� Impaired cardiac output
� Systemic vasodilation
� Hypoperfusion, hypotension

2. Acute Intrarenal Renal Failure
± 25% of ARF
± damage directly to the renal tissues
ETIOLOGY� *Acute Tubular Necrosis - type of ARF
± Ischemia, nephrotoxin, pigment
� Contrast dye
� Drugs
� Infection or immunologic

injury.
� May last hours to days
� May have reduced urine output or it may be
normal
� With prompt treatment may have noresidual damage

10
Phases of ARF
� 2. Oliguric/Anuric
� Less than 400 ml urine/24hours
± Within 1- 7 days of insult ± Total support of renal function is needed

12
Phases of ARF
� 3. Diuretic ± High output failure
± increased glomerular filtration rate and
increased urine output.
� Lasts for 7-14 days� Kidneys clearing fluid but not solutes so that the
urine osmolality is either fixed or low
� Up to 5L/day
± May become volume depleted because of the
large urine output

± movement of solutes from an area of higher
concentration to an area of lesser concentration.
� 2. Osmosis- ± movement of fluid from an area of lesser to an area of
greater concentration of solutes.
� 3. Ultrafiltration-
± water and fluid removal from an area of increasedpressure to an area of decreased pressure
8/6/2019 Renal Failure Critically Ill[1]
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/renal-failure-critically-ill1 51/86

1. Hemodialysis
� Blood shunted from thebody through tubinginto a dialysis machinewhich cleans the blood
using a ³Dialyzer´ or ³Artificial Kidney´.
� Solutes and wasteproducts removed bythe principles of
osmosis, diffusion andultrafiltration
� Performed 2-3 x/wk for 3- 4 hrs

Nursing Care
� 1. ³Thrill´- nurse must check for a vibrationover the area of anastamosis each shift.
� 2. ³Bruit´- nurse must listen with a
stethoscope for an audible swish.� *Report loss of either stat to physician
� Teach patient how to check for ³Thrill´
before going home.� Can eat double their usual protein (since
urea & creatinine excreted)

internal jugular or femoral
vein.
� Catheter has a double
lumen (blue and red), onefor blood removal and one
for blood return
8/6/2019 Renal Failure Critically Ill[1]
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/renal-failure-critically-ill1 61/86
61
Care of Double-lumen catheter
� Never flush or draw blood from thiscatheter for any reason!
� Each ³tail´ contains 1500u of heparinplaced there by dialysis nurse toprevent clotting off of vessels.
� No blood draws or B/P from that arm.
� If removed- apply pressure withsandbags for long time to preventhemorrhage.

sterile Dialysate) is infused through the catheter over 10 min.
� 2) Dwell- ± Diffusion and Osmosis occur while the solution sits
in the peritoneal cavity
± Typical ³dwell´ time is 20-30 min., but can be 8 hrsor >.
� 3) Drain- ± Fluid drained, takes 15-30 min.
± Patient may need to change position

± Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal
Dialysis (CAPD) ± esp pt with Diabetes
� Approx 2L dialysate 4 x/day
� Dwell times of 4 to 10 hrs

21
Types of Peritoneal Dialysis
8/6/2019 Renal Failure Critically Ill[1]
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/renal-failure-critically-ill1 68/86
68
Technique
� Catheter placed (usually surgically) through theanterior abdominal wall.
� A common catheter is the ³Tenckhoff´, a silicone
rubber tubing (about25
cm long) that has a cuff that anchors it and prevents migration.
� Complications of catheter insertion: ± perforation of the bladder, bowel or major blood
vessels.
� Catheter must be irrigated periodically withheparinized dialysate to keep it free of blood andfibrin.

Nursing Care for Patient with PD
� Pre-procedure ± Assess site for any s/s of infection.
± Take baseline V.S.
� During procedure ± Assess for pain, watch V.S., watch equipment for any
leaks, etc.
� Post-procedure ± Assess amount of outflow (should match what you
put in or be a little more),
± Assess for hernias and pulmonary complications
± Watch for abnormal color of returned fluid (milky or white could indicate peritonitis)

� 3. Continuous Renal Replacement
Therapy (CRRT)
� CAVH (Continuous arterial-venous
hemofiltration)
± Blood flows through semipermeable filter
and extracorpeal circuit
± Removes only excess fluid
� CAVHD (Continuous arteriovenoushemodialysis)
± Same as above but uses dialysate and
solute removed

Kidney Transplantation
� Not enough supply for the demand for organs
± 54,000 pts awaiting cadaveric kidneytransplants about 8000 performed in 2002
± Waiting period up to 4 years� 90-95% success rate
� reverse many of the pathophysiologicchanges associated with renal failure.

Donor Sources
� 1. Cadaver donors ± Kidneys removed after death
± can be preserved up to 72 hours.
�2. Live donors ± most often blood relatives, but can be other donors if
blood type matches.
� Method ± Laparscopic donor nephrectomy
± Traditional ³Open Nephrectomy´ used less often

Surgical procedure
� old kidneys left inplace
� new donor kidney is
grafted into theInternal Iliac arteryand Vein
� Once blood flow isestablished to thenew kidney itbecomes firm andpink

Post-op Care
** Maintenance of fluid & electrolyte balance
� Large diureses if kidney is functional(up toa 1L/hr)
� Fluid replaced mL for mL or dehydrationand shock can occur.
� Sudden decrease in urine output in early
postop period a priority concern
