Other results: 24 hour urine output – 400 mL; 24 hour urine total protein – 1g/24 hours; BUN – 28 mg/dL, Creatinine – 1.6 mg/dL; positive ASO titer
a.what are the abnormal findings present?
b.what is the suspected diagnosis?
c.what is the probable cause?
d. are the bun and creatinin results consistent with the dignosis? why or why not?
A. Abnormal findings are :-
Urine output 400ml /24hr
BUN -28mg/ dL
Creatinine - 1.6mg/ dL
Total protein 1gm/24hour
B. Suspected of Acute kidney injury
C. Probable cause is the use of several high dose antibiotics
D. BUN and creatinine are raised due to injury to the kidney as they cannot flush out the waste . Hence creatinine and BUN raised .
