  1. 0:00this is a very challenging question for
  2. 0:02me to discuss
  3. 0:03not because this is overwhelmingly
  4. 0:05difficult but because
  5. 0:07there's so much to talk about and it can
  6. 0:09be confusing to learn this stuff
  7. 0:11so to try to make a consolidated clip
  8. 0:14okay not make this
  9. 0:1527 minutes i know you don't want to see
  10. 0:17a clip that's long like that
  11. 0:18so i'm going to try to be as concise as
  12. 0:20i can all right
  13. 0:21this has been destroying students on the
  14. 0:23usmle on the step 1 and vietnamese
  15. 0:26these types of questions regarding
  16. 0:28pre-renal intra-renal post renal
  17. 0:30etiologies okay so just cutting to the
  18. 0:33chase here
  19. 0:34we've got congestive heart failure
  20. 0:35that's a high-yield pre-renal
  21. 0:38uh azotemia etiology for the step
  22. 0:41if your heart's not pumping as well as
  23. 0:42it should be isn't it safe to say you're
  24. 0:45not going to be perfusing your kidneys
  25. 0:46as well as you should be
  26. 0:48so irrespective of your actual plasma
  27. 0:50volume
  28. 0:51the kidneys not receiving as much blood
  29. 0:54flow
  30. 0:54as it should be so it says [ __ ]
  31. 0:57we need to reabsorb more fluid to
  32. 0:59compensate that's what the kidney thinks
  33. 1:02okay so it's going to reabsorb it's
  34. 1:05going to jack up
  35. 1:06its proximal convoluted tubular
  36. 1:08reabsorption
  37. 1:09of urea and sodium to compensate so
  38. 1:12what's the result
  39. 1:13we get a high bu endocrine ratio 20
  40. 1:16or greater in pre-renal we get low
  41. 1:18urinary sodium
  42. 1:20fractional excretion of sodium under one
  43. 1:22percent because the pct
  44. 1:24is pulling all that urea and sodium out
  45. 1:26of the urine right
  46. 1:27and then because it's pulling urea and
  47. 1:30sodium out of the urine
  48. 1:31and water follows sodium we're going to
  49. 1:34be making the urine more concentrated
  50. 1:36that can sound confusing to students
  51. 1:38when you say but i don't
  52. 1:40get it if we're pulling sodium out of
  53. 1:42the urine
  54. 1:43isn't it like how are we making the
  55. 1:45urine more concentrated
  56. 1:46it's because sodium in and of itself is
  57. 1:48not dictating urinary osmolality
  58. 1:50it's we're drawing so much extra water
  59. 1:53out of the urine
  60. 1:54early in the pct that the net result of
  61. 1:57the urine
  62. 1:58leaving the nephron is going to be more
  63. 2:00concentrated
  64. 2:01okay so in pre-renal ideologies diuretic
  65. 2:06use
  66. 2:06really high yield nsaid use and
  67. 2:09congestive heart failure these are the
  68. 2:10three most important causes for us
  69. 2:12smelly
  70. 2:13we're going to have a b under crowning
  71. 2:14ratio 20 or greater we're going to have
  72. 2:16fractional excretion of sodium under one
  73. 2:17percent
  74. 2:18and we're going to have a high urinary
  75. 2:20osmolality
  76. 2:21and specific gravity if it's high that's
  77. 2:24concentrated urine
  78. 2:26if specific grav so we so we have a high
  79. 2:28specific gravity
  80. 2:29if we have a low specific gravity that's
  81. 2:31dilute urine
  82. 2:33now i should just make a point about
  83. 2:35these numbers for specific gravity
  84. 2:37around one is as dilute as you get so
  85. 2:40one point
  86. 2:41in terms of what i've observed on nbme
  87. 2:42questions 1.001 to 1.005
  88. 2:47that's diabetes insipidus psychogenic
  89. 2:50polydipsia range
  90. 2:51when we talk about 1.025 to 1.030
  91. 2:55that's siadh severe dehydration range
  92. 2:58okay so when we see these values of
  93. 3:011.025 we can say yeah those are more
  94. 3:03concentrated
  95. 3:04and that's what we expect in this case
  96. 3:06and choice c is the only answer
  97. 3:08where we have a bunny crowning ratio
  98. 3:11greater than 20
  99. 3:12we have low urinary sodium and we have a
  100. 3:14high urinary specific gravity so we have
  101. 3:15concentrated urine
  102. 3:17important causes of intrarenal for
  103. 3:20the step acute tubular necrosis okay so
  104. 3:24gentamicin cisplatin classically
  105. 3:26nephrotoxic drugs that cause atn
  106. 3:28i should make a point that nsaids
  107. 3:31do not cause acute tubular necrosis at
  108. 3:34least on usmla okay nsaids can cause
  109. 3:36pre-renal they can cause chronic
  110. 3:38analgesic nephropathy interstitial
  111. 3:40nephropathy with eosinophils in the
  112. 3:42urine
  113. 3:43but nsaids aren't going to cause acute
  114. 3:44tumor necrosis so when we have nsaids
  115. 3:47beta lactams
  116. 3:48cephalosporins that's tubular
  117. 3:50interstitial nephropathy
  118. 3:52interstitial nephritis same thing
  119. 3:54whereas drugs like
  120. 3:55gentamicin aminoglycosides and cisplatin
  121. 3:59cause acute tubular necrosis ischemia
  122. 4:02also super high yield
  123. 4:04due to decreased blood flow this is
  124. 4:05going to be real [ __ ] confusing
  125. 4:07if you exsanguinate eg patient loses
  126. 4:10blood during surgery
  127. 4:11temporarily drops to a blood pressure of
  128. 4:1380 on 40 for a minute before being
  129. 4:15resuscitated
  130. 4:15or a patient has ventricular
  131. 4:17fibrillation with 30 seconds
  132. 4:19of loss of perfusion to the kidney
  133. 4:21before being resuscitated
  134. 4:23that's an acute ischemia and the pct
  135. 4:26has lots of atpase pumps that have high
  136. 4:29oxygen demand
  137. 4:30we get slothing of the renal tubules we
  138. 4:33have acute tubular necrosis
  139. 4:35versus and that's intra-renal versus
  140. 4:39nsaid use over four to six weeks is more
  141. 4:42sub-acute
  142. 4:42that causes pre-renal congestive heart
  143. 4:45failure it's more of a sub-acute to
  144. 4:46chronic process
  145. 4:48that's pre-renal diuretic use
  146. 4:51it's not going to cause renal ideologies
  147. 4:53right away it might take a few weeks of
  148. 4:54patients being on diuretics being
  149. 4:56dehydrated
  150. 4:57before they get pre-renal see the
  151. 4:59difference it's really high yields so if
  152. 5:01the yosemite gives you a one-liner
  153. 5:03patient loses blood during surgery
  154. 5:05patient is v-fib
  155. 5:06for 30 seconds what's the diagnosis
  156. 5:09you're going to choose intrarenal which
  157. 5:12is going to be a b
  158. 5:13b when a chronium ratio under 20
  159. 5:15fractional excretion of sodium greater
  160. 5:17than one percent
  161. 5:18and a more dilute urine okay
  162. 5:21this can get really confusing i know but
  163. 5:23i just want to make a point that
  164. 5:25i have observed nvme questions where the
  165. 5:27bu endocrine ratio does not
  166. 5:29match up to what we expect maybe about
  167. 5:3120 of the time
  168. 5:33it's the fractional excretion of sodium
  169. 5:35that matters so
  170. 5:36you might get a question where they say
  171. 5:38patient is on diuretics for the past two
  172. 5:40months
  173. 5:41and has they'll tell you the fractional
  174. 5:43excretion of sodium is under one percent
  175. 5:45you're like cool
  176. 5:46this is pre-renal and then you'll see
  177. 5:47the blue endocrine ratio is 19 and
  178. 5:49you're like what the [ __ ] you're like
  179. 5:50how is that possible i thought it was
  180. 5:51supposed to be 20 or greater
  181. 5:52as i said this will happen about 20 of
  182. 5:55the time is my guess
  183. 5:56uh so it's the fractional excretion of
  184. 5:59sodium that's more accurate
  185. 6:00bu endocrine ratio can occasionally be
  186. 6:02off okay
  187. 6:04um i should also point out that
  188. 6:07first aid will make a distinction
  189. 6:08between uh insurinal and post renal
  190. 6:11post renal classically being like bph
  191. 6:15okay or even a cancer like cervical
  192. 6:17cancer impinging on the ureters
  193. 6:19or some sort of strictures of the
  194. 6:21urethra okay
  195. 6:23but first aid will make a distinction
  196. 6:25between intrarenal and post renal for
  197. 6:27its bu and accreting ratio they'll have
  198. 6:29at least at this point in time they've
  199. 6:31had for many years uh intrarenal
  200. 6:33under 15 for bu and a creatinine ratio
  201. 6:36post renal 15-20
  202. 6:37it's [ __ ] wrong because on nvme
  203. 6:40questions
  204. 6:40you'll see a q-tubular necrosis where
  205. 6:43they'll eg
  206. 6:43give you b on a criminal ratio 17 18
  207. 6:46okay
  208. 6:47the same way they might give you
  209. 6:48pre-renal occasionally that's 19.
  210. 6:50so just the point i teach now is just
  211. 6:54most of the time pre-renal 20 or greater
  212. 6:57most of the time
  213. 6:58not pre-renal just under 20. okay
  214. 7:01uh so acutely necrosis we said ischemia
  215. 7:04classically
  216. 7:05uh drugs such as aminoglycoside cis plan
  217. 7:07also myoglobinuria and the setting of
  218. 7:09rhabdomyoglobin's nephrotoxic
  219. 7:11and also classically iv contrast
  220. 7:15so once again this can be an extended
  221. 7:17clip
  222. 7:18don't worry i'm going to make more
  223. 7:19content on this stuff it can be really
  224. 7:21annoying when you're learning this
  225. 7:23material initially
  226. 7:24but your short recapitulation is
  227. 7:25congestive heart failure high yield
  228. 7:27cause of pre-renal azotemia for the step
  229. 7:30kidney senses decrease blood flow it's
  230. 7:32going to jack up reabsorption of urea
  231. 7:34and sodium to compensate
  232. 7:36so you have a high bu and acrylic ratio
  233. 7:38you have low
  234. 7:39urinary sodium and your urine becomes
  235. 7:41more concentrated
  236. 7:42you're gonna have a high urinary
  237. 7:44specific gravity okay
  238. 7:46if you liked this clip subscribe to my
  239. 7:48channel
  240. 7:49and i appreciate your time that's it
