Objectives
Students will be able to outline the long-term effects of diabetes mellitus, as it affects the eye, the kidney, sexual function, the cardiovascular system and peripheral nervous system as well as the effects of diabetes on lipid metabolism.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2
Explain the structure, function and physiology of the urinary tract, kidney, nephron and glomerulus
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to discuss features and causes of urinary tract infection and types and etiology of kidney stones.
Global Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Explain the nephrotoxic potential of certain drugs.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand how the kidney conserves sodium appropriately during hypovolemic states, and inappropriately in the setting of congestive heart failure.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Illustrate the mechanisms by which the kidney may excrete a dilute versus concentrated urine.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe the main sites of potassium reabsorption in the nephron.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe how potassium secretion by the kidney regulates the serum potassium concentration.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe the role of the following in the secretion of potassium by the kidney: aldosterone activity and tubular flow rate
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe how the body deals with an acid load with reference to: Buffer systems (bicarbonate, hemoglobin); Lungs (alveolar ventilation); Kidneys (net acid excretion).
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe the kidney's role in acid base balance with reference to: Reclamation by the kidney of filtered bicarbonate and acid excretion via the glutamine-ammonium system
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe the mechanisms by which GFR may be reduced in both acute and chronic kidney disease.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe the role of the urinalysis in detecting the presence of glomerular disease.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe and apply the role of the kidney in the metabolism and excretion of drugs.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Explain the mechanisms of action by which diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and calcium channel blockers reduce elevated blood pressure.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand surface anatomy corresponding to the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe and identify the fibrous capsule, perirenal fat, renal fascia and pararenal fat and understand their function.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand the renal cortex, medulla, renal pyramids, renal papilla, renal columns.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand the arterial supply of the kidneys (renal arteries, segmental arteries, lobar arteries, interlobar arteries, arcuate arteries, interlobular arteries and afferent glomerular arterioles.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand the venous and lymphatic drainage as well as the innervations of the kidney.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Understand the development of the common congenital anomalies of the kidney.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe renal and bladder anatomy and visualize with an ultrasound.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe normal renal pathology.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Explain the structure, function and physiology of the urinary tract, kidney, nephron and glomerulus
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Describe and interpret investigations (urinalysis, blood tests, imaging) in the diagnosis of renal pathology.
General Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Upon completion of this problem, students will be able to describe the role of the kidney in electrolyte homeostasis and develop an approach to electrolyte abnormalities.
Global Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Renal
Upon completion of this problem, students should be able to identify and describe mechanisms of compensation and eventual failure of cardiovascular responses to sudden volume loss. Additionally, students should be able to connect and describe the consequences to and responses of other organ systems (renal, hematologic) to acute volume loss and hemodynamic compromise
Global Objectives
Part 2 / Medical Foundation 2 / Hematology
Understand the gross anatomy of kidneys, ureter and bladder.
General Objectives
Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Renal
Describe how the glomerulus functions as a physiologic barrier to the excretion of protein in the urine. Diabetic nephropathy is a common example of this type of process and the treatments used in diabetes to reduce proteinuria will help you to understand glomerular hemodynamics.
General Objectives
Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Renal
Understand the endocrine functions of the kidney:
General Objectives
Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Renal
Understand the nephrotoxic potential of some classes of therapeutic medications.

General Objectives
Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Renal
Modalities for imaging of the urinary tract.
Activity Objectives

Activity Objectives
Part 3 / Medical Foundation 3 / Renal
What are the advantages and disadvantages of each modality (for imaging of the urinary tract)?
