oedema
heart failure and then as a result compromised kidney function
Acute renal failure
Pre-renal kidney failure???
I'm sorry, but the history is mediocre, how long ago was the MI, 3 days or 3 years?
Acute Renal Failure
insuficencia renale ?
The patient has acute renal failure
Low cardiac output causing pre-renal kidney failure
renal hypertension
Congestive heart failure/Cardiogenic Shock due to the previous MI leading to Pre-renal kidney failure.
If the infarct is fresh it is acute renal failure. The causes can be:
1. hypercalemia
2. high serum myoglobin
3. low minute volume...
I don't see the connection between earlier infarct and sudden severe oliguria.
renal failure
it could be pre-renal kidney failure.
insucitientia renalis acuta
