REPIZO et al. concluded that “serum creatine phosphokinase should be monitored in DF patients to allow for an early diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis and the institution of renal protective measures”. In fact, the renal complication of dengue is not rare and it should be kept in mind for all practitioners. The renal proble...
متن کاملAcute Tubular Necrosis
A rapid rise in creatinine following periods of hypotension is most commonly due to acute tubular necrosis. In ATN, urinalysis usually shows granular casts. Urine sodium is typically high due to tubular sodium loss, concentration is typically above 30 mmol/l. The urine to plasma osmolality ratio <1:1, the ability to concentrate urine is preserved despite sodium loss. Acute Tubular Necrosis is a...

متن کاملAlbuminuria in acute tubular necrosis.
Acute renal failure (ARF) is defined as an abrupt decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), as evidenced by rising serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine. Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) is the most common cause of ARF. ATN is an acute decline in glomerular filtration as a result of damage to the tubules in the kidney. Sepsis is the most common aetiology of ATN, causing ARF in 20–25% ...
