Last update: prof. MUDr. Jiří Horák, CSc. (03.12.2012)

 

The aim of the subject NURG (nephrology, urology, rheumatology and geriatrics) is to teach students the approach to patients suffering from these illnesses and conditions, to take properly the patient´s history, to master relevant physical examination, to devise a plan of auxilliary diagnostic procedures and to evaluate corrrectly the acquired information by fomulating a working diagnosis. Finally, according to the circumstances, to recommend changes in the lifestyle, appropriate diet and both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapy.

The subject NURG lasts for five weeks. In the first two weeks, nephrology is taught followed by one week each of urology, rheumatology and geriatrics. The study is integrated, i.e. it starts with relevant pathophysiology and pathology followed by clinical presentation, diagnostics, treatment and prevention. Social aspects are dealt with esp. in geriatrics.

Last update: Bekime Jajová, DiS. (05.10.2020)

The subject NURG is taught by means of seminars, practicals and lectures. Teaching is integrated, i.e. it comprises pathophysiological mechanisms of the disease, pathological findings, physical examination, auxilliary diagnostic methods and both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment.

Requirements to the exam -
Last update: prof. MUDr. Jiří Horák, CSc. (03.12.2012)

Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and pathology of the kidney, the urinary tract and locomotion apparatus including connective tissue.

Basic diseases in nephrology, urology and rheumatology, their pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnostics and management.

The approach to the elderly patients, specifics of diseases in the elderly, changes in clinical presentation, changes of drug pharmacokinetics in the old age, ethical and social aspects of caring for the elderly.

The subjects ends by a written examination in the form of multiple choice question test (120 questions, four possibilities, just one is correct). A minimum of 65% of correct answers is required to pass the test.

A precondition for the student to be allowed to sit for the examination is successful passing the exam General Foundations of Pathology and Pathophysiology in the third year.

Recommendations for the evaluation of biochemichal parameters in nephrology (Dr. Granátová):
 
  1. What kidney function has my patient in a daily praxis?

  • Usual patient: s-creatinine (+ eGFR - estimated glomerular filtration (MDRD, event. CKD-EPI)
  • Muscle atrophy (dystrophy, malnutrition, immobilization, elderly) / big amount of muscles: s- cystatin C (+ estimated GFR based on cystatin  C)
  • Pregnant woman: s-cystatin C
  • Extremely obese: s-cystatin C

           Remember: -  to know thyroid function (TSH)  - if uncompensated hyperfunction -

                                    falsely worse eGFR (and falsely better if uncompensated hypofunction)

     -   in corticoid therapy falsely worse eGFR based on cystatin C   

         (dependence on the corticoid dose) - eGFR based on s-creatinine is

          more appropriate


  • Drug administration: s-cystatin C (+ estimated GFR based on cystatin  C)
  • Children: s-cystatin C  (small, thin, slight, low amount of muscles)

              s-creatinine (+ estimated GFR based on Schwartz formula,

                                   MDRD/CKD-EPI not recommended),

              estimation for a daily praxis: maximal s-creatinine = body height (cm) x 0,54

                  the upper normal value of s-creatinine that fits to still undecreased GFR 1,5 ml/s)


  1. Kidney deterioration suspected:

     s-creatinine (+ eGFR (MDRD, event. CKD-EPI, s-urea,

     albumin in urine,ACR (especially in diabetic patiens, hypertension)


  1. Worsening kidney function, acute kidney injury (AKI) suspected:


    • In outpatient department: trend in s-creatinine for 3- 4 days

                                                  (event. s-cystatin C, see above)

          If  the rising trend continues, then admission to hospital

          Remember: -   Biological + analytical variability in creatinine concentration

                                   day to day about 15%

                              -    Changes in s-creatinine are delayed in 24 - 48 hours after the cause       

                                   (hypoxia, hypoperfusion, toxins etc.)


    • In hospital: s-cystatin C (event. NGAL)


  1. Type of proteinuria (PU):


    • Children:glomerular selective: minimal change disease (MCD)

                             glomerular nonselective: focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS),

                                                                        postinfectional glomerulonefritis (GN), other GN


  • Adults:   glomerular selective: minimal change disease (MCD)

                           glomerular nonselective: idiopatic membranous glomerulopathy (IMG),

                                                                      focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS),  

                                                                      diabetic nefropathy,

                                                                      monoclonal protein("paraprotein")  - to perform

                                   serum electrophoresis (event.+ immunofixative electrophoresis if

                                   paraprotein is present,  serum free light chains (FLC); if systemic

                                   amyloidosis (AL) is suspected, these tests are necesasary in serum + in urine

                           glomerulo-tubular nonselective: advanced disease
Entry requirements -
Last update: prof. MUDr. Jiří Horák, CSc. (03.12.2012)

Student entering the subject NURG must have working knowledge not only of anatomy and physiology of the kidney, the whole urogenital system and the mobility apparatus but also of general pathology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and intermediary metabolism. Further, he must understand principles of physician´s attitude to the patient including principles of medical ethics and be able to take patients´history and to perform physical examination.
