Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) || USMLE

My goal is to reduce educational disparities by making education FREE.
These videos help you score extra points on medical school exams (USMLE, COMLEX, etc.)
For educational purposes only; NOT medical or other advice.
Some videos contain mild profanity and hyperbole solely used to assist with memorization. Viewer discretion advised.
Opinions are entirely my own.

The reason why Post renal is a combination of looking like a pre-renal or intrinsic picture is because for example if there is renal calculi in the ureter, the obstruction will cause a back-flow of fluid towards the kidney. This will allow the kidney to reabsorb more urea nitrogen therefore increasing the ratio. When this continues for a long period of time, it eventually damages the kidneys from doing its job and causes the reabsorption to fail, decreasing the ratio. Hope that helps!!

hi, just a quick correction, among causes of intrinsic AKI should be ATN : acute tubular necrosis, instead of RTA

[PowderChaser]

Dirty, I have never felt more positive about my upcoming Comlex than after watching your videos. You are the real MVP hands down.

Tip... post renal AKI...be aware of ureter compression, i.e. tumors, PCOS, etc.

Intrarenal: Ischaemic, toxic (drugs, chemo cisplatin, ab aminoglycoside, vancomycine), interstitial Nephritis (fever rash eosinophilia due to penicillin)

I think you mean ATN instead of RTA...RTAs don't directly cause AKI
