American Journal of Roentgenology, 2013 The objective of this article is to review and evaluate the various parameters used in determining renal status.The physiologic determination of renal status is the measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR). Serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, cystatin C, and estimated GFR (eGFR), based on serum creatinine have failed to replace mGFR.

Opioids, both endogenous and exogenous, have a strong influence on the renal function through different mechanisms, producing changes in the renal excretion of water and sodium. Several studies have demonstrated that opioids influence renal function, according to the agonist profile used.

Labetalol and renal function [PDF]
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1981 Five patients with newly diagnosed hypertension treated with Labetalol in various dosage were assessed at fortnightly intervals after starting therapy to determine if any alteration in renal function had occurred. Before therapy, 2 patients had a normal glomerular filtration rate, one had a glomerular filtration rate of 71 mls/min and 2 had severe ...

Monitoring Renal Function and Limitations of Renal Function Tests
Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2008Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a world-wide public health problem, with adverse outcomes of kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and premature death. The National Kidney Foundation, through its Kidney Disease Quality Outcome Initiative (K/DOQI) and other National institutions, recommend glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimates for the definition,

The patient's history, physical examination, and routine urinalysis (including an expert assessment of the urinary sediment) are of paramount importance for the evaluation of a patient with possible renal dysfunction. The four tests most commonly used to establish the presence, extent, and the rate of progression of renal dysfunction are BUN, PCr, CCr,

Prostaglandins and Renal Function
2015Prostaglandins modulate the effects of vasoactive hormones by attenuating the renal actions of the renin-angiotensin system and contributing to and, perhaps, mediating some of those of the kallikrein-kinin system. A prostaglandin mechanism participates in the regulation of renin and erythropoietin release.

Renal functional reserve represents the capacity of the kidney to increase its level of operation in response to certain demands. The reserve of glomerular filtration rate and of renal blood flow is discussed from the following points of view: evaluation, measurement, mechanisms involved and significance.

Renal function and dysfunction
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2001Recent publications regarding perioperative renal dysfunction provide a 'potpourri' of topics worthy of discussion. The risk of perioperative renal dysfunction is higher in patients with heart failure, but other pre-existing conditions, such as genetic polymorphism, may have prognostic implications. Evaluation of renal risk and protective interventions

Acute renal failure is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. The prompt, effective management of acute oliguria, frequently the presenting sign of renal deterioration, remains difficult because of the lack of suitable monitors.

Renal function is altered in the neonate in comparison to the adult. Although structurally complete in terms of numbers of nephrons by 36 weeks, the newborn kidney is still functionally immature. Renal function undergoes rapid maturation during the first weeks postbirth in both term and preterm infants. During this time there is little margin for error
