Obiettivi

1 . Comprendere le cause e del comportamento clinico delle sindromi associate alle malattie renali

2 . Comprendere i meccanismi, delle cause e della presentazione clinica dell'insufficienza renale acuta e cronica

3 . Comprendere le indicazioni e i metodi della biopsia renale nella valutazione delle malattie renali

4 . Comprendere le basi e le possibili complicanze delle terapie di sostituzione renale

5 . Comprendere le basi e le possibili complicanze del trapianto renale

Contenuti sintetici

La clerkship coprirà gli aspetti più importanti relativi alle più comuni malattie renali. Gli studenti acquisiranno le conoscenze di base per riconoscere le sindromi renali tipiche, i segni/sintomi dell'insufficienza renale avanzata e degli squilibri di fluidi ed elettroliti. Al termine dei corsi, gli studenti saranno in grado di generare una diagnosi differenziale appropriata delle principali malattie renali, per illustrare le principali indicazioni per la biopsia renale, terapia di sostituzione renale e trapianto renale e spiegare le possibili complicanze di queste procedure.

Programma esteso

1 . Approccio clinico e gestione del paziente che presenta sindrome nefrosica

2 . Approccio clinico e gestione del paziente che presenta anomalie urinarie isolate

3 . Approccio clinico e gestione del paziente che si presenta con insufficienza renale rapidamente progressiva

4 . Approccio clinico e gestione del paziente che presenta una malattia renale cronica

5 . Approccio clinico e gestione del paziente che presenta squilibri di elettroliti e fluidi

6 . Diagnosi differenziale delle principali malattie renali primarie e secondarie

Aims

1. Understanding the basis and the clinical behaviour of syndromes associated with renal diseases

2. Understanding the mechanisms, the causes and the clinical presentation of acute and chronic kidney injury

3. Understanding the indications and methods of kidney biopsy in the evaluation of renal diseases

4. Understanding the basis and the possible complications of renal replacement therapies

5. Understanding the basis and the possible complications of renal transplantation

Contents

The clerkships will cover the most important aspects related to the commonly encountered conditions affecting the kidney. Students will acquire the basic knowledge to recognize the typical renal syndromes, advanced renal failure signs/symptoms and electrolytes and fluid disturbances. At the conclusion of the courses, the students will be able to generate an appropriate differential diagnosis of the principal kidney diseases, to illustrate the main indications for kidney biopsy, renal replacement therapy and renal transplantation and to explain the possible complications of these procedures.

Detailed program

1. Clinical approach and management of patient presenting with nephrotic syndrome

2. Clinical approach and management of patient presenting with isolated urinary abnormalities

3. Clinical approach and management of patient presenting with rapidly progressive renal failure

4. Clinical approach and management of patient presenting with chronic kidney disease

5. Clinical approach and management of patient presenting with electrolytes and fluid disturbances

6. Differential diagnosis of the principal primary and secondary renal diseases

7. Indications, technical aspects and possible complications of renal biopsy

8. Indications, technical aspects and possible complications of dialysis
