Stone Types

• Calcium stones (60-80%)–Most primarily calcium oxalate– Less often, calcium phosphate

• Struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) (10-15%)

• Uric acid (if pure, then radiolucent) (5-10%)• Cystine (1%)• Other (indiavir, triamterene, etc) (1%)

↓ fluid volume / substance that prevent crystallization (citrate,

magnesium, nephrocalcin / uropontin)

↑ urinary concentration of calcium oxalate / calcium phosphate / uric acid

Supersaturated urine

Crystallization of urine

Stone formation

• Pain in abdomen, flank or groin (sudden onset, very severe and intermittent colic)• Haematuria• Decreased urine volume• Nausea and vomiting

SIGN & SYMPTOMS

CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS

• Manifestations depend on the presence of obstruction, infection, and edema. Symptoms range from mild to excruciating pain and discomfort.

Ureteral Colic (Stones Lodged in Ureter)

• Acute, excruciating, colicky, wavelike pain, radiating down the thigh to the genitalia

• Frequent desire to void, but little urine passed; usually contains blood because of the abrasive action of the stone (known as ureteral colic)

Stones in Renal Pelvis

• Intense, deep ache in costovertebral region• Hematuria and pyuria• Pain that radiates anteriorly and downward

toward bladder in female and toward testes in male

• Acute pain, nausea, vomiting, costovertebral area tenderness (renal colic)

• Abdominal discomfort, diarrhea

Stones Lodged in Bladder

• Symptoms of irritation associated with urinary tract infection and hematuria

• Urinary retention, if stone obstructs bladder neck

• Possible urosepsis if infection is present with stone

• Reduction of fluid intake• Recurrent UTI• Hyperuricemia-caused medication• Inflammatory bowel syndrome• History of gout• Poor micturation habit• Male

RISK FACTORS

• Pyelonephritis• Urosepsis• Chronic renal failure

COMPLICATION

• Lymphocyte- 17.7% (20-45%)

• Glucose- 6.8 (3.9 – 6.1mmol/L)

• Potassium- 3.3 (3.5 – 5.5mmol/L)

SURGICAL PROFILE

• Bacteria - Occasional (Nil)

URINE FEME

• Right VUJ stone ~5mm with obstructive hydronephrosis

Alteration in comfort : pain related to obstructive ureteric stone.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

Alteration in emotional status anxiety related to surgical management and treatment.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

Knowledge deficit related to management of blood pressure control.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

Potential infection related to intravenous cannulation.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

Potential bleeding related to surgical intervention.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

Potential infection related to surgical intervention.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS

• Drink 2.5 – 3 litres H₂O per day (neutral pH)• Take 2 glasses of water at bedtime

to prevent urine concentration at night• Avoid excessive intake of milk or

alkaline drink

DRINK :

• Minimize protein intake (60g/day) to decrease urinary excretion of calcium & uric acid

• Minimize sodium (3-4g/day) because sodium competes with calcium for reabsorption in kidneys

• Avoid oxalate-containing food (spinach, strawberry, tea, peanut & wheat bran)

DIET :

• Regular exercise• Avoid strenuous activity leading to

sudden increase body temperature that lead to excessive sweating & dehydration

EXERCISE :

• Maintain personal hygiene• Seek treatment immediately at 1st
