Flight Paramedic Life Link III hammond, Wisconsin, United States
Renal physiology can be intimidating and difficult to commit to long term memory. Instead of a basic review of the anatomy and physiology of the renal system, Tyler discuss three specific questions that are directly related to patient care.
• Why do the kidneys need a MAP of 65 mmHg? • Is BUN/Creatinine ratio really helpful in diagnosing types of renal failure? • Do loop diuretics have a role in critical care transport?
By answering these questions, attendees will learn renal A&P, and correlate patient application in the clinical mental model. This presentation will use 2D and 3D animation software for an immersive learning experience.
Learning Objectives:
Identify the various structures of the renal system
Define three different types of renal failure
Associate mechanism of action for common loop diuretics
