Patient #1 is a 35yo male who brought in a urine jug for a 24hr creatinine clearance. The volume of the urine was 1000mL. The patient’s height is 6ft and he weighs 230lbs, with an approximate body surface area of 2.24. Creatinine Clearance Results: Range Serum Creatinine: 0.8mg/dL (0.6-1.2) mg/dL Urine Creatinine: 66.2mg/dL Clearance Rate: (85-125) mL/min Determine the Clearance Rate. What is the discrepancy in these results? Name at least 3 possible reasons for this discrepancy:
Case #4 Mr. Ali. is a seriously ill 42-year-old male with a history of several episodes of microscopic hematuria in the past 20 years. Until recently the macroscopic hematuria had spontaneously reverted to a symptomatic microscopic hematuria. Significant lab results include a BUN of 80 mg/dl (N:8-23 mg/dl), serum creatinine of 4.5 mg/dl (N:0.6-1.2 mg/dl), creatinine clearance of 20 ml/min (N:107-139 ml/min), serum calcium of 8.0 mg/dl (N: 9.2-11.0 mg/dl), serum phosphate of 6.0 mg/dl (N:2.3-4.7 mg/dl), and an elevated...

A 72 year old male is seen in his nursing home for a distended abdomen. He has a Foley in place yet has not had any urine output in 16 hours. Renal ultrasound shows hydronephrosis. Creatinine is increased to 2.2 mg/dL. What would you suspect? You are a nurse on a medical-surgical floor. Labs drawn on your patient admitted from the nursing home with dehydration and malnutrition just come back and the calcium level is 6.8. Should you call the...
