Lecture of paediatrics
Faculty of medicine
Benha university
BASICS
POLYUREA
BASICS
Polyuria defined as
urine out put is
>3ml/kg/h
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Nephron types
Hypertonic medulla
Vasa recta
TAL
DT (urea)
ADH effect
Non Absorbable
Pathophysiology of polyurea
CAUSES
Causes
Acquired dysfunction of salt & water
reabsorption
• Obstructive uropathy
• Osmotic diuresis
• ATN (diuretic phase)
• Tubulointerstial damage (CKD)
• Drugs
– diuretics
– Corticosteroids
– caffiene
• Serious systemic infection
• Hypercalciemia (↑13mg/dl )
• hypokalemia
Herediatry tubulopathies affecting salt
reabsorption
– RTA
• Proximal (fanconi syndrome)
• Distal (interstial nephritis)
• Hyperkalemic, aldosterone defect (obstructive
uropathy)
– Bartter syndrome (AR)
ADH abnormalities
– Centeral DI
– Nephrogenic DI
Causes
Specific tubular disorders
topics
( January, 1900, - December 1969)
Fuller Albright
Proximal RTA
pathophysiology
• Sodium loss
• Bicarbonate loss
• H+ retention
Distal RTA
pathophysiology
Hyperkalemic RTA
pathophysiology
Renal tubular acidosis
(the essentials )
• Failure to thrive
• Chronic vomiting
• Episodes of metabolic acidosis
• Hypercholremic metabolic acidosis with NAG
• Usually normal renal function
• It is 4 types (proximal , distal , hyperkalemic &
mixed)
Frederic Crosby Bartter
(10 September 1914 – 5 May 1983)
Barrter syndrome
pathophysiology
Barrter
(the essentials )
• Failure to thrive
• Chronic vomiting
• metabolic alkalosis
• Hypocholremia
• Hypokalemia
• Elevated plasma renin and aldosterone
Thomas Willis
(January 1621- November 1675)
Diabetes insipidus
• Sever polyuria
• Hypernatremia
• Serum osmolarity >280
• Urine osmolarity <280
• Response to desmopressin (central type)
Clinical Approach
ASK FOR
• Stress to confirm polyurea (Recurrent
dehydration with no significant vomiting)
• CKD
• Diuretics or corticosteroids
• Dark urine
• Is the paient diabetic
• Head trauma
Examine for
• Urine volume
• Hydration state
• Acidotic breathing
• Weight centile
• Blood pressure
• Racketic manifestations Evidence of CKD
• Renal mass
• Cushinoid features
Step 1: confirm polyurea
Step 2: review your history and examination
Exclude AQUIRED CAUSES at least
Step3: initial investigations
• Urine analysis (SG , glycosuria )
• Blood sugar level
• Serum urea & creatnine
• Serum electrolytes (calcium , potassium & sodium)
• ABG
• Abdominal US
Step 4: Classify according ABG
Metabolic
acidosis
Metabolic
alkalosis
No acidosis or
alkalosis
Polyuria with metabolic acidosis
Calculate anion gap
Normal Wide
Role out
renal failure
Dehydration
Consider RTA
Serum K
Elevated
Consider type IV
Confirm by
(TTKG)
Investigate for
aldosterone defect
(pyleonephritis ,
obstructive uropathy
,addison,CAH)
Normal or low
Urine PH
UAG
NaHCO3
<5.5
Consider
PRTA
Investigate for
fanconi
syndrome
(TYROSEMIA
,GALCTOSEMIA)
>5.5Consider DRTA
• SPORDIAC
• INHERTIED
• SYNDROMES (marfan ,wilson )
• Secondery(obst ,pyleonephritis ,
amphotricine B)
Polyuria with metabolic Alkalosis
Role out loop diuretics and chronic vomiting
Consider barrter syndrome
Confirm
Serum potassium (low)
Serum renin and aldosterone
(high)
Polyuria with no metabolic acidosis or
alkalosis
Role out acquired causes espically
Hypercalcemia
Hypokalemia
Drugs
Do serum & urine osmolarity
Plasma osmalrity >280
Or
Urine osmalrity <280
YES
Diagnostic for DI
(no need for WDT)
DIFFERENCIATE
BETWEEN CENTERAL
& PREIPHERAL TYPES
NO
Water deprivation
test
