What are signs and symptoms of acute glommerulonephritis?
Acute glomerulonephritis is characterized by sudden onset of symptoms such as hematuria (blood in urine), proteinuria (excess protein in urine), hypertension, and edema (swelling), particularly around the eyes and in the lower extremities. Other signs may include decreased urine output, fatigue, and foamy urine. Diagnosis is typically confirmed through urine and blood tests, as well as imaging studies such as ultrasound or kidney biopsy.
The presence of white blood cell casts in the urine is indicative of pyelonephritis and red blood cell casts indicative of glomerulonephritis?
White blood cell casts in the urine are typically associated with acute interstitial nephritis, while red blood cell casts are more commonly seen in acute glomerulonephritis. Pyelonephritis is usually characterized by the presence of white blood cells in the urine without casts.
What can be symptoms of poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis?
fluid accumulation and tissue swelling (edema ) initially in the face and around the eyes, later in the legs low urine output (oliguria) blood in the urine (hematuria)

What is glomerulonephritis?
Glomerulonephritis is a group of diseases that affect the part of the kidney responsible for filtering blood. It can be acute or chronic and is characterized by inflammation and damage to the glomeruli, which are tiny structures in the kidney that help filter waste from the blood. Symptoms can include blood in the urine, swelling, and high blood pressure. Treating underlying causes and managing symptoms are typical approaches for glomerulonephritis.
What are some of the symptoms of glomerulonephritis?
Glomerulonephritis is considered to be a renal disease. The symptoms of this disease include: pink or cola colored urine, foamy urine, high blood pressure, fluid retention, and fatigue.
What happens if urine output is greater than intake?
If urine output is greater than intake a pressure differential will exist between inside and outside the urethra and as a result you will urinate your internal organs out.
What is the difference between glomerulonephritis and nephrotic syndrome?
Nephrotic Syndrome Acute Nephritic SyndromeProteinuria (>3.0 g/day)Hypoalbuminemia (
What factors affect urine output?
There are many things that affect an animal's urine output such as food intake. Beverage intake also affects an animal's urine output.
Incubation period for acute renal failure?
The incubation period for acute renal failure is not applicable as it is not an infectious disease. Acute renal failure is usually diagnosed based on the sudden onset of symptoms, such as decreased urine output or swelling in the body. It is important to seek medical attention promptly if you suspect you have symptoms of acute renal failure.
Normal daily urine output in a male?
For a male OR female, drinking about 2 liters of fluid a day, the normal urine output should be 800 to 2,000 milliliters a day. Urine output below 500 milliliters a day is considered a low urine output and is a sign of disease.
