Assessment of anuria & management of post obstructive diuresis
1. Assessment Of Anuria &
Management Of Post
Obstructive Diuresis

ALLIED HOSPITAL FAISALABAD.
2. ANURIA
DEFINITION:
COMPLETE ABSENCE OF URINE PRODUCTION FOR
24 HOURS
The patient has not passed the urine & the bladder is
also empty even on catheterisation
3. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Urinary Retention:
When patient, despite an urge to void, is unable to push urine out of
bladder due to either infra vesical obstruction or inability to generate
effective detrusor contractions.
Correct catheterization yields urine relieving symptoms.
Extravasation:
Leakage of urine into tissues / body cavity Peritoneum Bladder rupture /
perforation
4. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Oliguria:
<300 ml urine / 24 hrs
Renal failure:
When kidneys no longer able to maintain
renal functions
Acute: sudden, potentiality reversible
Sudden rise of S creatinine by 1
Chronic: insidious, progressive.
nonreversible
10. POST RENAL
/OBSTRUCTIVE ANURIA
Bilateral PUJ obstruction by stone.
Unilateral PUJ obstruction by stone with contralateral ureteric
obstruction.
11. OBSTRUCTIVE ANURIA
Bilateral Ureteric Obstruction:
Extramural:
o Tumors of cervix, ovary, uterous, vagina, urinary bladder,
prostate, rectum, colon, caecum & lymphomas
o Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis
o Retrocaval ureter, pararenal cysts, aberent vessels, ligatures
Intraluminal:
o Calculus, sloughed papilla, clot, ureteric malignancy,
crystaluria
12. OBSTRUCTIVE ANURIA
Intramural:
o Congenital PUJ obstruction or stenosis
o Ureterocele and congenital small ureteric orifice
o Strictures ( stone, repair, tuberculosis, schistosomiasis)
o Ureteric / vecsical malignanncy
o Kinks & adhesions ( sec to VUR)
Unilateral PUJ or ureteric obstruction in case of
o Contralateral nephrectomy
o Already obstructed or nonfunctional
o Congenitally absent
17. MANAGEMENT
Catheterise the patient
Restore circulatory volume deficit in a dehydrated patient
o Iv fluids
o Cvp 7-9 cm h2 o
o Dopamine, mannitol
o Frusemide 80 mg iv
Correct hypoxia
Iv antibiotics if patient is having sepsis
Nutritional support
Consider dialysis
18. Management
REMOVE THE OBSTRUCTION
CIRCUMVENT / BYPASS THE OBSTRUCTION
DEFINITE SOLUTION
19. POSSIBLE OPTIONS
URETERIC STENTING
PERCUTANEOUS NEPHROSTOMY
DEFINITE SURGERY
o STONE REMOVAL
o URETERIC REIMPLANTATION
22. POST OBSTRUCTIVE
DIURESIS
High urine output exceeding (>200ml/hr) 0.5-1 L per
hour after the obstruction is relieved.
Patients with edema, hypertension and azotemia are most
likely to exhibit this condition.
23. o Accumulation of total body water, Sodium and urea.
o Impairment of Tubular re-absorptive capabilities.
True incidence of Post obstructive diuresis (POD) is not
known
Clinically significant POD:
occurs only in the setting of
Prior bilateral ureteral obstruction (BUO) or unilateral
obstruction of a solitary functioning kidney
Appears uncommon following UUO due to compensation by
normally functioning contra-lateral kidney.
FACTORS NECESSARY ARE
25. Physiological Diuresis:
Self limiting – As a response to solute (Sodium , Urea ) and water
overload. Stops after return to euvolumeic state.
Pathological Diuresis:
Inappropriate diuresis of water beyond euvolemic state.
Due to insensitivity of collecting tubule to ADH.
Other defects in urinary concentrating ability of the kidney and
tubular reabsorption of solutes.
26. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Numerous mechanisms have been proposed to describe the
pathophysiology of Post Obstructive Diuresis
o Progressive reduction in the medullary concentration gradient secondary
to vascular washout and down-regulation of sodium transporters in the
thick ascending loop of Henle.
o Reduction in glomerular filtration rate, which leads to ischemia and loss
of juxtamedullary nephrons.
o Reduced response of the collecting duct to circulating antidiuretic
hormone, leading to nephrogenic diabetes insipidus.
28. Release of Natriuretic Peptide
Decrease reabsorption of Sodium (NaCl) in tubule
Loss of medullary gradient
Reduced response of cortical duct toAnti Diuretic Hormone
Impairment ofTubuloGlomerularFeedback
Water cannot be taken out from the tubule
29. MANAGEMENT
Treatment of POD should be directed toward
o Complete relief of urinary tract obstruction
o Replacement of electrolytes,
o Correction of intravascular volume, and appropriate patient monitoring.
o In signs of urosepsis draw appropriate blood and urine cultures
before administering broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics.

MANAGEMENT
31. POD Management
Monitoring
Urine volume every hr in first 24 hr
Vital signs every 6 to 8 hr
Serum electrolyte levels every 12 to 24 hr
Urea and creatinine levels every 12 to 24 hr
Weight every 24hr
Physiologic Pathologic
Subside within 48
hrs
Persistent after 48hrs
Fluid Management,TightMonitoring,
and ReEvaluation
IV fluid replacement
Frequent monitoring of urine
and serum electrolyte levels
Repeat imaging to rule out
persistent obstruction
Discharge
Hemodialysis If fluid correction cannot be
achieved
32. There are few complications noted in literatures of
untreated post obstructive diuresis
Volume depletion
Hyponatremia or hypernatremia
Hypokalemia
Hypomagenesemia
Metabolic acidosis
Shock
Death
