Introduction

This is a case study of K.D, 17 years old, residing at Barangay Mambucal, Koronadal City. He was admitted at South Cotabato Provincial Hospital last July 9, 2011 at around 6:00 in the morning with the diagnosis of Anemia Secondary to End-Stage Renal Disease, under the care of Marilyn S. Abantao, M.D. Chronic Kidney Disease, also known as Chronic Renal Disease, is a progressive loss of renal function over a period of months and years. The symptoms of worsening kidney function are unspecific, and might include feeling generally unwell and experiencing a reduced appetite. Often CKD is diagnosed as a result of screening of people known to be at risk f kidney disease/problems, such as those with high blood pressure or diabetes and those with blood relative with CKD. And it will lead to Ed- Stage Renal Disease. End-Stage Renal Disease occurs when the Glomerular Filtrate Rate (GFR) is less than 15min/min. At this point, renal replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation) is required. In US, there is a rising incidence and prevalence of kidney failure, with poor outcomes and high cost. Kidney Disease is the 9th leading cause of death in US. Data from the US Renal Data System (USRDS) indicated that there has been an increase of 104 % in the prevalence of Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) between the years 1990-2001. There is an even higher prevalence of the earlier stages of CKD. In the Philippines, according to NNHcS 2003-2004 renal report prevalence of CKD in adults using predicted GFR from MDRD equation. Stages of GFR is >= 90 is 72.8 %, 60-89 is 24.6%, 30-59 is 2.2%, and 15 years and above in 2005 was 46,627,172 a prevalence rate of 2.6% means that 1, 212, 306 other Filipinos have CKD. Anemia is a condition in which an abnormally low number of red blood cells circulate in the body. It is the most common disorder of the red blood cells, affecting about 3.5 million Americans. Anemia is not a disease. It is a condition that results from below-normal levels of hemoglobin in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin is the iron-containing pigment of the red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. The anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is, in most patients, normocytic and normochromic. It is principally due to reduced renal erythropoietin production and, to a lesser degree, to shortened red cell survival and decreased responsiveness to the hormone. Anemia can develop well before the onset of uremic symptoms due to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Although anemia due to renal dysfunction generally develops when the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) declines to less than 30 mL/min, it can also be observed in those with markedly higher GFRs (such as 60 mL/min), and tends to occur at higher levels of GFR in African Americans than whites. If left untreated, the anemia of CKD is associated with several abnormalities. These include deterioration in cardiac function, decreased cognition and mental acuity, fatigue, and other signs and symptoms. There are also associations with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality, principally due to cardiac disease and stroke. A common occurrence of among all age groups, it is particularly prevalent among the elderly. A recent study documented the prevalence of anemia in elderly residents of skilled

Page |2

nursing facilities to be 48%. The prevalence rate of anemia from all age groups is 30.6%. this is higher than 1993 prevalence of 28.9% as in previous surveys. The most greatly affected groups are the infants, preschoolers, pregnant women, lactating women and elderly. For the rest of population groups, the anemia problem is of moderate magnitude. Among 1-5 year old children, a decline in prevalence rate was observed from 53.2% among 1 year and 18.2 % among 5 year old children. The 7th National Nutrition Survey (NNS) conducted by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute of the Department of Science and Technology (FNRI-DOST) showed that the prevalence of anemia among Filipinos remained high. The survey showed that while the anemia problem in the country has generally eased down from 2003 to 2008, it still remains a serious concern particularly for infants 6 months to less than 1 year old and pregnant women. Infants 6 months to less than 1 year old have the highest prevalence rate among all the age groups with 56 in every 100 or 55.7 percent having iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Though the latest result showed that there is a significant decrease from the 2003 NNS of 66.2 percent, it is still higher than its 1993 prevalence rate of 49.2 percent. Among pregnant women, 43 in every 100 or 42.5 percent are anemic. The 7th NNS results showed that overall prevalence of anemia, from 6 months to the elderly, is 19.5 percent. Generally, females are more anemic than males except for school-age children and the elderly. Among the 13-19 year olds, the prevalence of anemia for males is 10.4 percent and 18.2 of females. Among 20-39 year olds, the prevalence is 6.8 percent for males and 18.6 percent for females, while among 40-59 years old, 12.7 percent of males are anemic and 22.7 percent of females. Male and female anemia prevalence rates were similar among 6-12 years, old with 20.4 percent males and 19.2 percent females, while among elderly, with 33.4 males and 32.8 percent females. Using the 2008 Projected Population by the National Statistics Office (NSO), the estimated number of anemic children, 6 months to less than one year, 1-5 years, and 6-12 years is 0.74 million, 2.10 million and 2.77 million, respectively. We choose this case study to serve as information and to gain knowledge about Anemia secondary to End-Stage Renal Disease. To provide us broader knowledge regarding this condition. To answers our curiosity on how the disease process occurs, including its manifestations and intervention.

History of Past and Present Health and Illness

History of Past Health and Illness History of Past illness comprises the data of patients childhood illness and medical history, as well as ways on how these conundrums were resolve. According to Tatay D, patient had already passed through the childhood illness such as measles, mumps, and chickenpox; but by not manifest the illness again. Patient KD experience sore throat 3 times a month, then Last December 2010 he was diagnosed with Chronic Renal Disease by their doctor and he started his dialysis at January 2011 at Pinggoy Hospital for 2-3 times a week but it would not last for long it ends at July 2011 because of financial matter. As his diet he was informed by his Doctor to limit his rice for to 1 cup and 300-500 ml of water.

History of Present Health and Illness 3-5 hours prior to admission, the onset of present illness happened at their house when the patient is walking then suddenly feel difficulty of breathing. The patient rushes to the hospital (SCPH) by his father, he was conscious, little confuse, responsive and he is not oriented in time, place and people around him, he was admitted last July 9, 2011 at around 06:00 in the morning with the Chief Complaint of Difficulty of Breathing and was diagnosed of Anemia secondary to End-stage Renal Disease under the service of Marilyn S. Abantao, M.D. his vital signs are BP: 140/ 80 mmhg, Respiratory rate: 30 cpm, Pulse rate: 98 bpm, Temperature: 36.3 C.

Effects and Expectations of Illness to Self and Family Effects To self: The effect of illness to patient KD was he is not comfortable on his condition because it is difficult for him to have undergone dialysis every 2-3 times a week and when he cannot go for dialysis, he experiencing DOB or difficulty of breathing, weakness, and fatigue. He also stops from school because it is difficult for him to go to school and attend classes because he becomes lethargic and weak. He also verbalized that he cant continue to his dream to become a policeman because of his condition. To family: Parents KD verbalized that it is difficult for them to see their son suffering from the said condition, Patients KD is the eldest among 2 children of Tatay D and Nanay , they have more dreams to their son but because of KDs condition they feel disappointed and hopeless for this matter. According also to Tatay D, the hospitalization of their son affects their work also Ading D is affected to the condition of her Kuya.

Expectations To self: Patients KD expect that although he was suffering from a chronic condition he could surpass and accept the things happening to him and he was praying to the Lord for the guidance and he also pray that he could recover soon. To Family: The families expect that the patient will increase his faith and belief to God and still patients self-esteem will be remain in a normal state and also they expect that KD will recover soon after hospitalization in order to them not to worry and for them, they could go back to their work and do their normal daily living.

DEFINITION OF TERMS:

A) ANEMIA- is a condition in which an abnormally low number of red blood cells circulate in the body. B) END STAGE RENAL DISEAS irreversible complete or almost complete destruction of the functioning of the renal tissue such that remaining kidney mass can no longer maintain the bodys internal environment.

TEXTBOOK DISCUSSION

A) ANEMIA it is a deficiency of red blood cells, or insufficient hemoglobin within the red blood cells. There are many types of anemia. a) Iron deficiency anemia caused by lack of dietary iron, b) pernicious anemia caused by deficiency in vitamin B12 in which the RBCs are misshapen, large, and fragile and another cause of this anemia is lack of intrinsic factor due to autoimmune destruction of the parietal cells of the stomach lining. c) sickle cell anemia- a genetic disorder of the hemoglobin in which the RBCs are sickled, clogs capillaries, and rupture. d) aplastic anemia- the bone marrow is suppressed with decreased production of RBCs and WBCs and platelets due to radiation, exposure to chemicals such as benzene, or some medications. e) hemolytic anemia- in which the RBCs rupture before the end of their normal life span, sickle cell anemia and Rh disease of the new born are examples, another example is malaria. Scanlon, V.C., Sanders, T. (2007). Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology; Third Edition. Page 257.

B) ANEMIA a condition characterized by a reduction in the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood due to decreased RBCs, hypoxia produces fatigue to persons with this condition. Anemia reflects an abnormality in red cell number, structure, or function. Causes of anemia are excessive blood loss, deficiencies and abnormalities of erythrocyte production and excessive destruction of erythrocytes. Luckmann, J., Sorensen, K.C., (1987).Medical Surgical Nursing, A psychophysiologic approach; Third Edition. Pages 1020, 1040-1041.

C) ANEMIA - is a condition in which an abnormally low number of red blood cells circulate in the body. Anemia is not a disease. It is a condition that results from below-normal levels of hemoglobin in the red blood cells. Hemoglobin is the iron-containing pigment of the red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues. http://ehealthmd.com/content/what-anemia

A) END STAGE RENAL DISEASE irreversible complete or almost complete destruction of the functioning of the renal tissue such that remaining kidney mass can no longer maintains the bodys internal environment. The end result of the patients with renal disease is either uremia,and death, treatment by dialysis or transplant. Luckmann, J., Sorensen, K.C., (1987).Medical Surgical Nursing, A psychophysiologic approach; Third Edition. Page 1222. B) END STAGE RENAL DISEASE a usually complete and irreversible deterioration, is the end result of gradual tissue destruction and loss of kidney function. It may result from glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis, tuberculosis, polycystic kidney disease, hypertension, nephrosclerosis, renal calculi, lupus erythematosus, long- term aminoglycoside therapy, and diabetic neuropathy. Lippincott Williams and Wilkins. (2006). Pathophysiology made incredibly easy. Page 389. C) END-STAGE KIDNEY DISEASE - is the complete, or almost complete failure of the kidneys to function. The main function of the kidneys is to remove wastes and excess water from the body. End-stage kidney disease (ESRD) occurs when the kidneys are no longer able to function at a level needed for day-to-day life. It usually occurs when chronic kidney disease has worsened to the point at which kidney function is less than 10% of normal. ESRD almost always follows chronic kidney disease. A person may have gradual worsening of kidney function for 10 - 20 years or more before progressing to ESRD.

Anemia secondary to End Stage Renal Disease common causes of Chronic Kidney Disease (End Stage Renal Disease) o Chronic glomerular disease such as glomerulonephritis. o Chronic infections such as pyelonephritis and tuberculosis. o Congenital anomalies such as polycystic kidney disease. o Vascular disease such as hypertension and nephrosclerosis. o Obstructions such as renal calculi. o Collagen diseases such as lupus erythematosus. o Nephrotoxic agents such as long- term therapy of NSAIDs. o Endocrine diseases such as diabetic neuropathy.

Most common manifestations of Chronic Kidney Disease (End Stage Renal Disease) o Anemia Your kidneys make an important hormone called erythropoietin (EPO). Hormones are secretions that your body makes to help your body work and keep you healthy. EPO tells your body to make red blood cells. When you have kidney disease, your kidneys cannot make enough EPO. This causes your red blood cell count to drop and anemia to develop. o Peripheral edema The heavy loss of protein in the urine (over 3.0 grams per day) with its accompanying edema is termed the nephrotic syndrome. Nephrotic syndrome results in a reduction in the concentration of albumin in the blood (hypoalbuminemia). Since albumin helps to maintain blood volume in the blood vessels, a reduction of fluid in the blood vessels occurs. The kidneys then register that there is depletion of blood volume and, therefore, attempt to retain salt. Consequently, fluid moves into the interstitial spaces, thereby causing pitting edema. o Hyperkalemia- The hormone aldosterone regulates kidney removal of sodium and potassium. Lack of aldosterone due to Chronic Renal Failure can result in hyperkalemia with an increase in total body potassium. o Hypocalcemia and Hyperphosphatemia- CRF has an effect in calcium and phosphorus. Since there will be decreased production of active vitamin D in the kidneys (calcitriol), there will be a decreased reabsorption of calcium from the GI tract, the phosphate will have a retention on the body ( since there will be a viceversa effect with the calcium), the phosphate will bind on the calcium therefore causing decreased serum calcium level. There will be release of PTH by the parathyroid glands, and there will be release in of calcium stored in the bones which causes bone demineralization and bone density loss, this will lead to increased serum calcium and will cause further metastic calcification of the vascular walls.

P a g e | 22

o Hypervolemia- patients with renal insufficiency cannot excrete excess fluid in the body. Thats why fluid is retained in the body causing edema (hypervolemia). o Hypertension- patients with CRF complicates into having hypertension due to sodium retention in the boy. The RAAS (renin angiotensin aldosterone system) will be activated due to sodium retention and there will be a concurrent hypertension. o Acidosis - in advance renal failure, kidney cannot excrete increased loads of acid. Decreased acid secretion primarily results from inability of the kidney tubules to reabsorb sodium bicarbonate. Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease o The stages of CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) are mainly based on measured or estimated GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate). There are five stages but kidney function is normal in Stage 1, and minimally reduced in Stage 2. GFR 90+ Description Normal kidney function but urine findings or structural abnormalities or genetic trait point to kidney disease Mildly reduced kidney function, and other findings (as for stage 1) point to kidney disease Moderately reduced kidney function Treatment Observation, control of blood pressure.

Treatment and Management for Chronic Kidney Disease (End Stage Renal Disease) o Hemodialysis: - Hemodialysis is a procedure that cleans and filters your blood. It rids your body of harmful wastes and extra salt and fluids. It also controls blood pressure and helps your body keep the proper

P a g e | 23

balance of chemicals such as potassium, sodium, and chloride. Hemodialysis uses a dialyzer, or special filter, to clean your blood. The dialyzer connects to a machine. During treatment, your blood travels through tubes into the dialyzer. The dialyzer filters out wastes and extra fluids. Then the newly cleaned blood flows through another set of tubes and back into your body. Before your first treatment, an access to your bloodstream must be made. The access provides a way for blood to be carried from your body to the dialysis machine and then back into your body. The access can be internal (inside the body -- usually under your skin) or external (outside the body). Hemodialysis can be done at home or at a center. At a center, nurses or trained technicians perform the treatment. At home, you perform hemodialysis with the help of a partner, usually a family member or friend. If you decide to do home dialysis, you and your partner will receive special training. Hemodialysis usually is done three times a week. Each treatment lasts from 2 to 4 hours. During treatment, you can read, write, sleep, talk, or watch TV. o Transplantation: - Kidney transplantation is a procedure that places a healthy kidney from another person into your body. This one new kidney does all the work that your two failed kidneys cannot do. A surgeon places the new kidney inside your body between your upper thigh and abdomen. The surgeon connects the artery and vein of the new kidney to your artery and vein. Your blood flows through the new kidney and makes urine, just like your own kidneys did when they were healthy. The new kidney may start working right away or may take up to a few weeks to make urine. Your own kidneys are left where they are, unless they are causing infection or high blood pressure. You may receive a kidney from a member of your family. This kind of donor is called a living-related donor. You may receive a kidney from a person who has recently died. This type of donor is called a

P a g e | 24

cadaver donor. Sometimes a spouse or very close friend may donate a kidney. This kind of donor is called a living-unrelated donor. It is very important for the donor's blood and tissues to closely match yours. This match will help prevent your body's immune system from fighting off, or rejecting, the new kidney. A lab will do special tests on blood cells to find out if your body will accept the new kidney. The time it takes to get a kidney varies. There are not enough cadaver donors for every person who needs a transplant. Because of this, you must be placed on a waiting list to receive a cadaver donor kidney. However, if a relative gives you a kidney, the transplant operation can be done sooner. The surgery takes from 3 to 6 hours. The usual hospital stay may last from 10 to 14 days.

NURSING MANAGEMENT 1. Monitor 24-hour urine volume to follow clinical course of the disease. 2. Monitor BUN, creatinine, and electrolyte. 3. Monitor ABG levels as necessary to evaluate acid-base balance. 4. Weigh the patient to provide an index of fluid balance. 5. Measure blood pressure at various times during the day with patients in supine, sitting, and standing positions. 6. Adjust fluid intake to avoid volume overload and dehydration. 7. Watch for cardiac dysrhythmias and heart failure from hyperkalemia, electrolyte imbalance, or fluid overload. Have resuscitation equipment available in case of cardiac arrest. 8. Watch for urinary tract infection, and remove bladder catheter as soon as possible. 9. Employ intensive pulmonary hygiene because incidence of pulmonary edema and infection is high. 10. Provide meticulous wound care. 11. Offer high-carbohydrate feedings because carbohydrates have a greater protein-sparing power and provide additional calories. 12. Institute seizure precautions. Provide padded side rails and have airway and suction equipment at the bedside. 13. Encourage and assist the patient to turn and move because drowsiness and lethargy may reduce activity. 14. Explain that the patient may experience residual defects in kidney function for a long time after acute illness. 15. Encourage the patient to report routine urinalysis and follow-up examinations. 16. Recommend resuming activity gradually because muscle weakness will be present from excessive catabolism.

Anatomy and Physiology a) Kidneys The kidneys, organs with several functions, serve essential regulatory roles in most animals, including vertebrates and some invertebrates. They are essential in the urinary system and also serve homeostatic functions such as the regulation of electrolytes, maintenance of acid-base balance, and regulation of blood pressure (via maintaining salt and water balance). They serve the body as a natural filter of the blood, and remove wastes which are diverted to the urinary bladder. In producing urine, the kidneys excrete wastes such as urea and ammonium; the kidneys also are responsible for the reabsorption of water, glucose, and amino acids. The kidneys also produce hormones including calcitriol, erythropoietin, and the enzyme renin. Located at the rear of the abdominal cavity in the retroperitoneum, the kidneys receive blood from the paired renal arteries, and drain into the paired renal veins. Each kidney excretes urine into a ureter, itself a paired structure that empties into the urinary bladder. Renal physiology is the study of kidney function, while nephrology is the medical specialty concerned with kidney diseases. Diseases of the kidney are diverse, but individuals with kidney disease frequently display characteristic clinical features. Common clinical conditions involving the kidney include the nephritic and nephrotic syndromes, renal cysts, acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, urinary tract infection, nephrolithiasis, and urinary tract obstruction. Various cancers of the kidney exist; the most common adult renal cancer is renal cell carcinoma. Cancers, cysts, and some other renal conditions can be managed with removal of the kidney, or nephrectomy. When renal function, measured by glomerular filtration rate, is persistently poor, dialysis and kidney transplantation may be treatment options. Although they are not severely harmful, kidney stones can be a pain and a nuisance. The removal of kidney stones includes sound wave treatment, which breaks up the stones into smaller pieces which are then passed through the urinary tract. One common symptom of kidney stones is a sharp pain in the medial/lateral segments of the lower back.

Location In humans the kidneys are located in the abdominal cavity, more specifically in the paravertebral gutter and lie in a retroperitoneal position at a slightly oblique angle. There are two, one on each side of the spine. The asymmetry within the abdominal cavity caused by the liver typically results in the right kidney being slightly lower than the left, and left kidney being located slightly more medial than the right. The left kidney is approximately at the vertebral level T12 to L3, and the right slightly lower. The right kidney sits just below the diaphragm and posterior to the liver, the left below the diaphragm and posterior to the spleen. Resting on top of each kidney is an adrenal gland. The upper (cranial) parts of the kidneys are partially protected by the eleventh and twelfth ribs, and each whole kidney and adrenal gland are surrounded by two layers of fat (the perirenal and pararenal fat) and the renal fascia. Each adult kidney weighs between 125 and 170 grams in males and between 115 and 155 grams in females. The left kidney is typically slightly larger than the right. Structure

The kidney has a bean-shaped structure, each kidney has a convex and concave surface. The concave surface, the renal hilum, is the point at which the renal artery enters the organ, and the renal vein and ureter leave. The kidney is surrounded by tough fibrous tissue, the renal capsule, which is itself surrounded by perinephric fat, renal fascia (of Gerota) and paranephric fat. The anterior (front) border of these tissues is the peritoneum, while the posterior (rear) border is the transversalis fascia. The superior border of the right kidney is adjacent to the liver; and the spleen, for the left border. Therefore, both move down on inhalation.

P a g e | 28

The kidney is approximately 1114 cm in length, 6 cm wide and 4 cm thick. The substance, or parenchyma, of the kidney is divided into two major structures: superficial is the renal cortex and deep is the renal medulla. Grossly, these structures take the shape of 8 to 18 cone-shaped renal lobes, each containing renal cortex surrounding a portion of medulla called a renal pyramid (of Malpighi). Between the renal pyramids are projections of cortex called renal columns (of Bertin). Nephrons, the urine-producing functional structures of the kidney, span the cortex and medulla. The initial filtering portion of a nephron is the renal corpuscle, located in the cortex, which is followed by a renal tubule that passes from the cortex deep into the medullary pyramids. Part of the renal cortex, a medullary ray is a collection of renal tubules that drain into a single collecting duct. The tip, or papilla, of each pyramid empties urine into a minor calyx, minor calyces empty into major calyces, and major calyces empty into the renal pelvis, which becomes the ureter. Blood supply The kidneys receive blood from the renal arteries, left and right, which branch directly from the abdominal aorta. Despite their relatively small size, the kidneys receive approximately 20% of the cardiac output.[5] Each renal artery branches into segmental arteries, dividing further into interlobar arteries which penetrate the renal capsule and extend through the renal columns between the renal pyramids. The interlobar arteries then supply blood to the arcuate arteries that run through the boundary of the cortex and the medulla. Each arcuate artery supplies several interlobular arteries that feed into the afferent arterioles that supply the glomeruli. The interstitum (or interstitium) is the functional space in the kidney beneath the individual filters (glomeruli) which are rich in blood vessels. The interstitum absorbs fluid recovered from urine. Various conditions can lead to scarring and congestion of this area, which can cause kidney dysfunction and failure. After filtration occurs the blood moves through a small network of venules that converge into interlobular veins. As with the arteriole distribution the veins follow the same pattern, the interlobular provide blood to the arcuate veins then back to the interlobar veins which come to form the renal vein exiting the kidney for transfusion for blood. Histology Renal histology studies the structure of the kidney as viewed under a microscope. Various distinct cell types occur in the kidney, including:

P a g e | 29

Kidney glomerulus parietal cell Kidney glomerulus podocyte Kidney proximal tubule brush border cell Loop of Henle thin segment cell Thick ascending limb cell Kidney distal tubule cell Kidney collecting duct cell Interstitial kidney cells

Innervation The kidney and nervous system communicate via the renal plexus, whose fibers course along the renal arteries to reach the kidney. Input from the sympathetic nervous system triggers vasoconstriction in the kidney, thereby reducing renal blood flow. The kidney is not thought to receive input from the parasympathetic nervous system. Sensory input from the kidney travels to the T10-11 levels of the spinal cord and is sensed in the corresponding dermatome. Thus, pain in the flank region may be referred from the kidney. Functions The kidney participates in wholebody homeostasis, regulating acidbase balance, electrolyte concentrations, extracellular fluid volume, and regulation of blood pressure. The kidney accomplishes these homeostatic functions both independently and in concert with other organs, particularly those of the endocrine system. Various endocrine hormones coordinate these endocrine functions; these include renin, angiotensin II, aldosterone, antidiuretic hormone, and atrial natriuretic peptide, among others. Many of the kidney's functions are accomplished by relatively simple mechanisms of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion, which take place in the nephron. Filtration, which takes place at the renal corpuscle, is the process by which cells and large proteins are filtered from the blood to make an ultrafiltrate that will eventually become urine. The kidney generates 180 liters of filtrate a day, while reabsorbing a large percentage, allowing for the generation of only approximately 2

P a g e | 30

liters of urine. Reabsorption is the transport of molecules from this ultrafiltrate and into the blood. Secretion is the reverse process, in which molecules are transported in the opposite direction, from the blood into the urine. Excretion of wastes The kidneys excrete a variety of waste products produced by metabolism. These include the nitrogenous wastes called "urea", from protein catabolism, as well as uric acid, from nucleic acid metabolism. Acid-base homeostasis Two organ systems, the kidneys and lungs, maintain acid-base homeostasis, which is the maintenance of pH around a relatively stable value. The lungs contribute to acid-base homeostasis by regulating bicarbonate (HCO3-) concentration. The kidneys have two important roles in the maintaining of the acid-base balance: to reabsorb bicarbonate from and to excrete hydrogen ions into urine Osmolality regulation Any significant rise in plasma osmolality is detected by the hypothalamus, which communicates directly with the posterior pituitary gland. An increase in osmolality causes the gland to secrete antidiuretic hormone (ADH), resulting in water reabsorption by the kidney and an increase in urine concentration. The two factors work together to return the plasma osmolality to its normal levels. ADH binds to principal cells in the collecting duct that translocate aquaporins to the membrane allowing water to leave the normally impermeable membrane and be reabsorbed into the body by the vasa recta, thus increasing the plasma volume of the body. There are two systems that create a hyperosmotic medulla and thus increase the body plasma volume: Urea recycling and the 'single effect.' Urea is usually excreted as a waste product from the kidneys. However, when plasma blood volume is low and ADH is released the aquaporins that are opened are also permeable to urea. This allows urea to leave the collecting duct into the medulla creating a hyperosmotic solution that 'attracts' water. Urea can then re-enter the nephron and be excreted or recycled again depending on whether ADH is still present or not. The 'Single effect' describes the fact that the ascending thick limb of the loop of Henle is not permeable to water but is permeable to NaCl. This allows for a countercurrent exchange system whereby the medulla becomes increasingly concentrated, but at the same time setting up an

P a g e | 31

osmotic gradient for water to follow should the aquaporins of the collecting duct be opened by ADH. Blood pressure regulation Long-term regulation of blood pressure predominantly depends upon the kidney. This primarily occurs through maintenance of the extracellular fluid compartment, the size of which depends on the plasma sodium concentration. Although the kidney cannot directly sense blood pressure, changes in the delivery of sodium and chloride to the distal part of the nephron alter the kidney's secretion of the enzyme renin. When the extracellular fluid compartment is expanded and blood pressure is high, the delivery of these ions is increased and renin secretion is decreased. Similarly, when the extracellular fluid compartment is contracted and blood pressure is low, sodium and chloride delivery is decreased and renin secretion is increased in response. Renin is the first in a series of important chemical messengers that comprise the reninangiotensin system. Changes in renin ultimately alter the output of this system, principally the hormones angiotensin II and aldosterone. Each hormone acts via multiple mechanisms, but both increase the kidney's absorption of sodium chloride, thereby expanding the extracellular fluid compartment and raising blood pressure. When renin levels are elevated, the concentrations of angiotensin II and aldosterone increase, leading to increased sodium chloride reabsorption, expansion of the extracellular fluid compartment, and an increase in blood pressure. Conversely, when renin levels are low, angiotensin II and aldosterone levels decrease, contracting the extracellular fluid compartment, and decreasing blood pressure. Hormone secretion The kidneys secrete a variety of hormones, including erythropoietin, and the enzyme renin. Erythropoietin is released in response to hypoxia (low levels of oxygen at tissue level) in the renal circulation. It stimulates erythropoiesis (production of red blood cells) in the bone marrow. Calcitriol, the activated form of vitamin D, promotes intestinal absorption of calcium and the renal reabsorption of phosphate. Part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, renin is an enzyme involved in the regulation of aldosterone levels. Development The mammalian kidney develops from intermediate mesoderm. Kidney development, also called nephrogenesis, proceeds through a series of three successive phases, each marked by the development of a more advanced pair of kidneys: the pronephros, mesonephros, and metanephros.

P a g e | 32

Evolutionary adaptation Kidneys of various animals show evidence of evolutionary adaptation and have long been studied in ecophysiology and comparative physiology. Kidney morphology, often indexed as the relative medullary thickness, is associated with habitat aridity among species of mammals. Etymology Medical terms related to the kidneys commonly use terms such as renal and the prefix nephro-. The adjective renal, meaning related to the kidney, is from the Latin rns, meaning kidneys; the prefix nephro- is from the Ancient Greek word for kidney, nephros (). For example, surgical removal of the kidney is a nephrectomy, while a reduction in kidney function is called renal dysfunction. Diseases and disorders Congenital

Congenital hydronephrosis Congenital obstruction of urinary tract Duplex kidneys, or double kidneys, occur in approximately 1% of the population. This occurrence normally causes no complications but can occasionally cause urine infections. Duplicated ureter occurs in approximately one in 100 live births Horseshoe kidney occurs in approximately one in 400 live births Polycystic kidney disease o Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease afflicts patients later in life. Approximately one in 1000 people will develop this condition o Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is far less common, but more severe, than the dominant condition. It is apparent in utero or at birth. Renal agenesis. Failure of one kidney to form occurs in approximately one in 750 live births. Failure of both kidneys to form is invariably fatal. Renal dysplasia Unilateral small kidney Multicystic dysplastic kidney occurs in approximately one in every 2400 live births Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction or UPJO; although most cases appear congenital, some appear to be an acquired condition

Hydronephrosis is the enlargement of one or both of the kidneys caused by obstruction of the flow of urine. Interstitial nephritis Kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) are a relatively common and particularly painful disorder. Kidney tumors o Wilms tumor o Renal cell carcinoma Lupus nephritis Minimal change disease In nephrotic syndrome, the glomerulus has been damaged so that a large amount of protein in the blood enters the urine. Other frequent features of the nephrotic syndrome include swelling, low serum albumin, and high cholesterol. Pyelonephritis is infection of the kidneys and is frequently caused by complication of a urinary tract infection. Renal failure o Acute renal failure o Stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease

b) Bone marrow is the flexible tissue found in the interior of bones. In humans, bone marrow in large bones produces new blood cells. Bone marrow is also a vital element of the lymphatic system, as it produces lymphocytes and acts to prevent the backflow of lymph. On average, bone marrow constitutes 4% of the total body mass of humans; in adults weighing 65 kg (143 lbs), bone marrow accounts for approximately 2.6 kg (5.7 lbs).

Marrow types There are two types of bone marrow: red marrow (consisting mainly of hematopoietic tissue) and yellow marrow (consisting mainly of fat cells). Red blood cells, platelets and most white blood cells arise in red marrow. Both types of bone marrow contain numerous blood vessels and capillaries. At birth, all bone marrow is red. With age, more and more of it is converted to the yellow type; only around half of adult bone marrow is red. Red marrow is found mainly in the flat bones, such as the hip bone, breast bone, cranium, ribs, vertebrae and shoulder blades, and in the cancellous ("spongy") material at the epiphyseal ends of long bones such as the femur and humerus. Yellow marrow is found in the medullary cavity, the hollow interior of the middle

P a g e | 34

portion of long bones. In cases of severe blood loss, the body can convert yellow marrow back to red marrow to increase blood cell production. Stroma The stroma of the bone marrow is all tissue not directly involved in the primary function of hematopoiesis. Yellow bone marrow makes up the majority of bone marrow stroma, in addition to smaller concentrations of stromal cells located in the red bone marrow. Though not as active as parenchymal red marrow, stroma is indirectly involved in hematopoiesis, since it provides the hematopoietic microenvironment that facilitates hematopoiesis by the parenchymal cells. For instance, they generate colony stimulating factors, which have a significant effect on hematopoiesis. Cells that constitute the bone marrow stroma are:

fibroblasts (reticular connective tissue) macrophages adipocytes osteoblasts osteoclasts endothelial cells forming the sinusoids

Macrophages contribute especially to red blood cell production, as they deliver iron for hemoglobin production. Bone marrow barrier The blood vessels of the bone marrow constitute a barrier, inhibiting immature blood cells from leaving the marrow. Only mature blood cells contain the membrane proteins required to attach to and pass the blood vessel endothelium. Hematopoietic stem cells may also cross the bone marrow barrier, and may thus be harvested from blood. Stem cells The bone marrow stroma contain mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (also called marrow stromal cells). These cells are multipotent stem cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types. Cell types that MSCs have been shown to differentiate into in vitro or in vivo include osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myocytes, adipocytes and beta-pancreatic islets cells. MSCs can also transdifferentiate into neuronal cells. Compartmentalization There is biologic compartmentalization in the bone marrow, in that certain cell types tend to aggregate in specific areas. For instance, erythrocytes, macrophages, and their precursors tend to gather around blood vessels, while granulocytes gather at the borders of the bone marrow.

P a g e | 35

Lymphatic role Bone marrow is a key element of the lymphatic system, being one of the primary lymphoid organs which generate lymphocytes from immature hematopoietic progenitor cells. The bone marrow and thymus constitute the primary lymphoid tissues involved in the production and early selection of lymphocytes. Bone marrow furthermore performs a valve-like function to prevent the backflow of lymphatic fluid in the lymphatic system. Types of stem cells

Hematopoietic precursor cells: promyelocyte in the center, two metamyelocytes next to it and band cells from a bone marrow aspirate. Bone marrow contains three types of stem cells:

Hematopoietic stem cells give rise to the three classes of blood cells that are found in the circulation: white blood cells (leukocytes), red blood cells (erythrocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). Mesenchymal stem cells are found arrayed around the central sinus in the bone marrow. They have the capability to differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myocytes, and many other types of cells. They also function as "gatekeeper" cells of the bone marrow. Endothelial stem cells

Diseases involving the bone marrow The normal bone marrow architecture can be displaced by malignancies, aplastic anemia, or infections such as tuberculosis, leading to a decrease in the production of blood cells and blood platelets. In addition, cancers of the hematologic progenitor cells in the bone marrow can arise; these are the leukemias.

c) Heart Anatomy Coronary Arteries Because the heart is composed primarily of cardiac muscle tissue that continuously contracts and relaxes, it must have a constant supply of oxygen and nutrients. The coronary arteries are the network of blood vessels that carry oxygen- and nutrientrich blood to the cardiac muscle tissue. The blood leaving the left ventricle exits through the aorta, the bodys main artery. Two coronary arteries, referred to as the "left" and "right" coronary arteries, emerge from the beginning of the aorta, near the top of the heart. The initial segment of the left coronary artery is called the left main coronary. This blood vessel is approximately the width of a soda straw and is less than an inch long. It branches into two slightly smaller arteries: the left anterior descending coronary artery and the left circumflex coronary artery. The left anterior descending coronary artery is embedded in the surface of the front side of the heart. The left circumflex coronary artery circles around the left side of the heart and is embedded in the surface of the back of the heart. Just like branches on a tree, the coronary arteries branch into progressively smaller vessels. The larger vessels travel along the surface of the heart; however, the smaller branches penetrate the heart muscle. The smallest branches, called capillaries, are so narrow that the red blood cells must travel in single file. In the capillaries, the red blood cells provide oxygen and nutrients to the cardiac muscle tissue and bond with carbon dioxide and other metabolic waste products, taking them away from the heart for disposal through the lungs, kidneys and liver. When cholesterol plaque accumulates to the point of blocking the flow of blood through a coronary artery, the cardiac muscle tissue fed by the coronary artery beyond the point of the blockage is deprived of oxygen and nutrients. This area of cardiac muscle tissue ceases to function properly. The condition when a coronary artery becomes blocked causing damage to the cardiac muscle tissue it serves is called a myocardial infarction or heart attack. Superior Vena Cava The superior vena cava is one of the two main veins bringing de-oxygenated blood from the body to the heart. Veins from the head and upper body feed into the superior vena cava, which empties into the right atrium of the heart.

P a g e | 37

Inferior Vena Cava The inferior vena cava is one of the two main veins bringing de-oxygenated blood from the body to the heart. Veins from the legs and lower torso feed into the inferior vena cava, which empties into the right atrium of the heart. Aorta The aorta is the largest single blood vessel in the body. It is approximately the diameter of your thumb. This vessel carries oxygen-rich blood from the left ventricle to the various parts of the body. Pulmonary Artery The pulmonary artery is the vessel transporting de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. A common misconception is that all arteries carry oxygen-rich blood. It is more appropriate to classify arteries as vessels carrying blood away from the heart. Pulmonary Vein The pulmonary vein is the vessel transporting oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the left atrium. A common misconception is that all veins carry de-oxygenated blood. It is more appropriate to classify veins as vessels carrying blood to the heart. Right Atrium The right atrium receives de-oxygenated blood from the body through the superior vena cava (head and upper body) and inferior vena cava (legs and lower torso). The sinoatrial node sends an impulse that causes the cardiac muscle tissue of the atrium to contract in a coordinated, wavelike manner. The tricuspid valve, which separates the right atrium from the right ventricle, opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle. Right Ventricle The right ventricle receives de-oxygenated blood as the right atrium contracts. The pulmonary valve leading into the pulmonary artery is closed, allowing the ventricle to fill with blood. Once the ventricles are full, they contract. As the right ventricle contracts, the tricuspid valve closes and the pulmonary valve opens. The closure of the tricuspid valve prevents blood from backing into the right atrium and the opening of the pulmonary valve allows the blood to flow into the pulmonary artery toward the lungs.

P a g e | 38

Left Atrium The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein. As the contraction triggered by the sinoatrial node progresses through the atria, the blood passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. Left Ventricle The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood as the left atrium contracts. The blood passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. The aortic valve leading into the aorta is closed, allowing the ventricle to fill with blood. Once the ventricles are full, they contract. As the left ventricle contracts, the mitral valve closes and the aortic valve opens. The closure of the mitral valve prevents blood from backing into the left atrium and the opening of the aortic valve allows the blood to flow into the aorta and flow throughout the body. Papillary Muscles The papillary muscles attach to the lower portion of the interior wall of the ventricles. They connect to the chordae tendineae, which attach to the tricuspid valve in the right ventricle and the mitral valve in the left ventricle. The contraction of the papillary muscles opens these valves. When the papillary muscles relax, the valves close. Chordae Tendineae The chordae tendineae are tendons linking the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve in the right ventricle and the mitral valve in the left ventricle. As the papillary muscles contract and relax, the chordae tendineae transmit the resulting increase and decrease in tension to the respective valves, causing them to open and close. The chordae tendineae are string-like in appearance and are sometimes referred to as "heart strings." Tricuspid Valve The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle. It opens to allow the deoxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle. It closes as the right ventricle contracts, preventing blood from returning to the right atrium; thereby, forcing it to exit through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery. Mitral Value The mitral valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle. It opens to allow the oxygenated blood collected in the left atrium to flow into the left ventricle. It closes as the left ventricle

P a g e | 39

contracts, preventing blood from returning to the left atrium; thereby, forcing it to exit through the aortic valve into the aorta. Pulmonary Valve The pulmonary valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery. As the ventricles contract, it opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right ventricle to flow to the lungs. It closes as the ventricles relax, preventing blood from returning to the heart. Aortic Valve The aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta. As the ventricles contract, it opens to allow the oxygenated blood collected in the left ventricle to flow throughout the body. It closes as the ventricles relax, preventing blood from returning to the heart.

The heart is a complex organ whose primary function is to pump blood through the pulmonary and systemic circulations. It is composed of four muscular chambers: the main pumping chambers, the left and right ventricles, and the left and right atria, which act like "priming pumps" responsible for the final 2030% of ventricular filling (Figure 101A). Peripheral venous return from the inferior and superior venae cavae fills the right atrium and ventricle (through the open tricuspid valve) (Figure 101B). With atrial contraction, additional blood flows through the tricuspid valve and completes the filling of the right ventricle. Unoxygenated blood is then pumped to the pulmonary artery and lung by the right ventricle through the pulmonary valve (Figure 101C). Oxygenated blood returns from the lung to the left atrium via four pulmonary veins (Figure 101D). Sequential left atrial and ventricular contraction pumps blood back to the peripheral tissues. The mitral valve separates the left atrium and ventricle, and the aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta (Figures 101D and 101E).

C: Anterior view of the heart with the anterior wall removed to show the right ventricular cavity. D: View of the left heart with the left ventricular wall turned back to show the mitral valve. E: View of the left heart from the left side with the left ventricular free wall and mitral valve cut away to reveal the aortic valve. The heart lies free in the pericardial sac, attached to mediastinal structures only at the great vessels. During embryologic development, the heart invaginates into the pericardial sac like a fist pushing into a partially inflated balloon. The pericardial sac is composed of a serous inner layer (visceral pericardium) directly apposed to the myocardium and a fibrous outer layer called the parietal pericardium. Under normal conditions, approximately 4050 mL of clear fluid, which probably is an ultrafiltrate of plasma, fills the space between pericardial sac. The left main and right coronary arteries arise from the root of the aorta and provide the principal blood supply to the heart (Figure 102). The large left main coronary artery usually branches into the left anterior descending artery and the circumflex coronary artery. The left anterior descending coronary artery gives off diagonal and septal branches that supply blood to the anterior wall and septum of the heart, respectively. The circumflex coronary artery continues around the heart in the left atrioventricular groove and gives off large obtuse marginal arteries that supply blood to the left ventricular free wall. The right coronary artery travels in the right atrioventricular groove and supplies blood to the right ventricle via acute marginal branches. The posterior descending artery, which supplies blood to the posterior and inferior walls of the left ventricle, arises from the right coronary artery in 80% of people (right-dominant circulation) and from the circumflex artery in the remainder (left-dominant circulation).

P a g e | 42

Contraction of the heart chambers is coordinated by several regions in the heart that are composed of myocytes with specialized automaticity (pacemaker) and conduction properties (Figure 103). Cells in the sinoatrial (SA) node and the atrioventricular (AV) node have fast pacemaker rates (SA node: 60100 beats/min; AV node: 4070 beats/min), and the His bundle and Purkinje fibers are characterized by rapid rates of conduction. Because it has the fastest intrinsic pacemaker rhythm, the SA node is usually the site of initiation of the cardiac electrical impulse during a normal heartbeat. The impulse then rapidly depolarizes both the left and right atria as it travels to the AV node. Conduction velocity slows from 1 m/s in atrial tissue to 0.05 m/s in nodal tissue. After the delay in the AV node, the impulse moves rapidly down the His bundle (1 m/s) and Purkinje fibers (4 m/s) to simultaneously depolarize the right and left ventricles. The atria and ventricles are separated by a fibrous framework that is electrically inert, so that under normal conditions the AV node and the contiguous His bundle form the only electrical connection between the atria and ventricles. This arrangement allows the atria and ventricles to beat in a synchronized fashion and minimizes the chance of electrical feedback between the chambers.

P a g e | 43

The electrical activity of the heart can be measured from the body surface at standardized positions by electrocardiography. On the electrocardiogram (ECG), the P wave represents depolarization of atrial tissue; the electrocardiographic wave (QRS) interval, ventricular depolarization; and the T wave, ventricular repolarization (Figure 103). Because normal ventricular depolarization occurs almost simultaneously in the right and left ventriclesusually within 60100 msthe QRS complex is narrow. Although the electrical activity of the small specialized conduction tissues cannot be measured directly from the surface, the interval between the P wave and the start of the QRS complex (PR interval) represents primarily the conduction time of the AV node and His bundle. Physiology of the Whole Heart Because the ventricles are the primary physiologic pumps of the heart, analysis has focused on these chambers, particularly the left ventricle. Function of intact ventricles is traditionally studied by evaluating pressure-time and pressure-volume relationships. d) RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

Commonly called the throat. Originates posterior to the nasal and oral cavities and extends inferiorly near the level of the bifurcation of the larynx and esophagus. Common pathway for both air and food. D) Nasopharynx Material from the oral cavity and oropharynx is typically blocked from entering the nasopharynx by the uvula of soft palate, which elevates when we swallow. In the lateral walls of the nasopharynx, paired auditory/eustachian tubes connect the nasopharynx to the middle ear. Posterior nasopharynx wall also houses a single pharyngeal tonsil (commonly called the adenoids). E) Oropharynx The middle pharyngeal region. Immediately posterior to the oral cavity. Bounded by the edge of the soft palate superiorly and the hyoid bone inferiorly. Common respiratory and digestive pathway through which both air and swallowed food and drink pass. Contains nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelim. Lymphatic organs here provide the first line of defense against ingested or inhaled foreign materials. Palatine tonsils are on the lateral wall between the arches, and the lingual tonsils are at the base of the tongue. F) Laryngopharynx Inferior, narrowed region of the pharynx. Extends inferiorly from the hyoid bone to the larynx and esophagus. Terminates at the superior border of the esophagus and the epiglottis of the larynx. Lined with a nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Permits passage of both food and air.

Lower Respiratory Tract Conducting airways (trachea, bronchi, up to terminal bronchioles). Respiratory portion of the respiratory system (respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli). A) Larynx Voice box is a short, somewhat cylindrical airway ends in the trachea. Prevents swallowed materials from entering the lower respiratory tract. Conducts air into the lower respiratory tract. Produces sounds.

P a g e | 46

Supported by a framework of nine pieces of cartilage (three individual pieces and three cartilage pairs) that are held in place by ligaments and muscles. B) Trachea A flexible tube also called windpipe. Extends through the mediastinum and lies anterior to the esophagus and inferior to the larynx. Anterior and lateral walls of the trachea supported by 15 to 20 C-shaped tracheal cartilages. Cartilage rings reinforce and provide rigidity to the tracheal wall to ensure that the trachea remains open at all times Posterior part of tube lined by trachealis muscle Lined by ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium. C) Bronchial tree A highly branched system of air-conducting passages that originate from the left and right primary bronchi. Progressively branch into narrower tubes as they diverge throughout the lungs before terminating in terminal bronchioles. Incomplete rings of hyaline cartilage support the walls of the primary bronchi to ensure that they remain open. Right primary bronchus is shorter, wider, and more vertically oriented than the left primary bronchus. Foreign particles are more likely to lodge in the right primary bronchus.

Prognosis CRITERIA Duration of illness GOOD FAIR POOR RATIONALE The duration of illness of Ms. RI is poor because the patient is always admitted at the hospital and stayed for 6-10 days. 3-5 hours prior to admission, the onset of present illness happened at their house. The patient was walking then suddenly he feels difficulty of breathing. The patient was rushed to the hospital by his father and he was conscious, little confuse, responsive and not oriented to time, place and people around him. The client was diagnosed last December 2010 at the age of 16 with End-Stage Renal Disease and he submits himself for dialysis last January 2011 but he stops the treatment last July 2011. The patient has good and proper grooming in spite of his condition as evidenced by wellfixed hair, wears clean and appropriate clothing and trimmed nails. The patient is 17 years old. This age is not appropriate to experience this kind of condition. Although that the patient follows what the doctors order for his diet (a low salt diet and rise is limited for to 1 cup only and he also limit his fluid intake to 300-500 mL) but, prior to the admission, he eats junk foods and drinks carbonated and alcoholic drinks. The patient is trying to perform his daily activities but still in a limited range of motion. The patient is willing to take his medication and follow what are the instructed to him by his physician but, he stops his dialysis last July 2011. His family is very supportive to the patient most especially his father that accompanied

Computation: Good: 2/8 *100= 25% Fair: 2/8 *100 = 25% Poor: 4/8 * 100= 50%

Interpretation: According to the computation, the prognosis of the patient is poor because he got 50% out of 100 %. 3-5 hours prior to admission, the onset of present illness happened at their house. The patient was walking then suddenly he feels difficulty of breathing. The patient was rushed to the hospital by his father and he was conscious, little confuse, responsive and not oriented to time, place and people around him, and also the patient is always admitted at the hospital and stayed for 6-10 days . The client was diagnosed last December 2010 at the age of 16 with EndStage Renal Disease and he submits himself for dialysis last January 2011 but he stops the treatment last July 2011, patient is 17 years old. His age is not appropriate to experience this kind of condition. Although the patient follows what the doctors order for his diet (a low salt diet and rise is limited for to 1 cup only and he also limit his fluid intake to 300-500 mL) but, prior to the admission, and he eats junk foods and drinks carbonated and alcoholic drinks.
