Practice Question
Dehydration, prolonged anesthesia, severe burns can all contribute towards what kind of renal disorders?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
Pre renal disorders.
Rationale:
🟣 Pre-renal disorders are caused by factors that decrease blood flow to the kidneys, impairing filtration without intrinsic kidney damage.
🟣 Severe burns, dehydration, and prolonged anesthesia can lead to hypovolemia or hypotension, causing decreased perfusion.
🟣 If uncorrected, this can progress to acute kidney injury (AKI).
🟣 Identifying and correcting pre-renal causes early helps prevent irreversible renal damage.
🟣 These are the most common type of AKI in critically ill patients.
