Kidney and urological disorders

Management of Urosepsis

Urosepsis is a life-threatening systemic infection caused by a urinary tract infection (UTI) that progresses to systemic inflammatory response and organ dysfunction. It may develop from infections involving any part of the urinary tract, including cystitis, pyelonephritis, urinary tract obstruction, infected urinary stones, or catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI).

Obstructive Uropathy- Management

Obstructive uropathy is a condition characterized by impaired urine flow due to obstruction anywhere along the urinary tract, resulting in increased pressure within the urinary system and potential damage to the kidneys. The obstruction may occur at any level, from the renal calyces to the urethra.

Acute cystitis (lower urinary tract infection)

Acute cystitis is an infection of the lower urinary tract involving the urinary bladder and, in some cases, the urethra. It is the most common form of urinary tract infection (UTI) and occurs predominantly in women due to their shorter urethra and proximity of the urethral opening to the perineum.

Acute kidney graft rejection

Acute kidney graft rejection is an immune-mediated injury to a transplanted kidney that occurs when the recipient’s immune system recognizes the donor kidney as foreign and mounts an immune response against the graft. It is a major cause of early kidney transplant dysfunction and can threaten long-term graft survival if not recognized and treated promptly.
