  • Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches
    Urinary tract infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches. By: Mahsa Ranjbarian Urinary system Renal or Urinary system is one of the 10 body systems that we have. This system is the body drainage system. The urinary system is composed of kidneys (vrikka), ureters (mutravaha nadis), bladder(mutrashaya) and urethra(mutramarga). The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped, fist size organs that lie in the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Ureters are tubes that carry the wastes or urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urine finally exit the body from the urethra when the bladder is full.1 Urethras length is shorter in women than men due to the anatomical differences. Major function of the urinary system is to remove wastes and water from our body through urination. Other important functions of the urinary system are as follows. 1. Prevent dehydration and at the same time prevent the buildup of extra fluid in the body 2. Cleans the blood of metabolic wastes 3. Removing toxins from the body 4. Maintaining the homeostasis of many factors including blood PH and blood pressure 5. Producing erythrocytes 6. make hormones that help regulate blood pressure 7. keep bones strong 8. keep levels of electrolytes, such as potassium and phosphate, stable 2 The Urinary system like any other systems of our body is working under the forces of three doshas, subdoshas. Mutravaha srotas, Ambuvahasrota and raktavahasrota are involved in formation and elimination of the urine. Urine gets separated from the rasa by maladhara kala with the help of pachaka pitta and samana vayu and then through the mutravaha srota(channels carrying the urine) it is taken to the bladder.

Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a rare form of pyelonephritis causing a severe infection of the renal system that includes gas in the renal parenchyma, collecting system and surrounding tissue oen presenting with sepsis. We report the case of a 60-year-old male with poorly controlled insulin dependent diabetes mellitus who presented with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and “peeing air.” CT scan revealed air extending from the le renal parenchyma, perinephric fat and into the bladder, consistent with emphysematous pyelonephritis. Bedside point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) subsequently revealed dirty shadowing and reverberation artifacts in the le kidney and the bladder consistent with gas in the urinary collecting system. By understanding the identifying artifacts seen with EPN, reective shadow and reverberation artifact, the emergency physician may be alerted to the diagnosis sooner.

Dept of Urology, Royal Bournemouth Hospital, UK SEASONAL VARIATION IN URINARY FREQUENCY, NOCTURIA, AND OTHER LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS IN MEN AND WOMEN Hypothesis / aims of study At a population level there are small seasonal effects on the prevalence of clinically relevant lower urinary tract storage symptoms [1], and a significant interaction with overactive bladder treatment response [2]. However, the effect of temperature variation on clinical assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms has not been explored. The aim of this study was to assess the association between atmospheric temperature, bladder diary variables, symptom severity, and urodynamic parameters in men and women with lower urinary tract symptoms. Study design, materials and methods Data were collected at two urodynamic units, Centre 1 situated at 55°52′N, equivalent to Moscow, and Centre 2 at 51°30′N, equivalent to Rotterdam, both with maritime temperate climates (Köppen classification Cfb). Consecutive men and women referred for evaluation were asked to complete both a 3 day frequency-volume chart, and a standardised lower urinary tract symptom and quality of life questionnaire (International Prostate Symptoms Score for men, and King’s Health Questionnaire for women), before undergoing free uroflowmetry, and where indicated, multichannel saline cystometry. Local mean monthly temperatures for each centre were extracted from national meteorological records.

  • Urinary Tract Infection
    Urinary Tract Infection Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a term that is applied to a variety of clinical conditions ranging from the asymptomatic presence of bacteria in the urine to severe infection of the kidney with resultant sepsis. UTI is one of the more common medical problems. It is estimated that 150 million patients are diagnosed with a UTI yearly, resulting in at least $6 billion in healthcare expenditures. UTIs are at times difficult to diagnose; some cases respond to a short course of a specific antibiotic, while others require a longer course of a broad-spectrum antibiotic. Accurate diagnosis and treatment of a UTI is essential to limit its associated morbidity and mortality and avoid prolonged or unnecessary use of antibiotics. Advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of UTI, the development of new diagnostic tests, and the introduction of new antimicrobial agents have allowed physicians to appropriately tailor specific treatment for each patient. EPIDEMIOLOGY Approximately 7 million cases of acute cystitis are diagnosed yearly in young women; this likely is an underestimate of the true incidence of UTI because at least 50% of all UTIs do not come to medical attention. The major risk factors for women 16–35 years of age are related to sexual intercourse and diaphragm use. Later in life, the incidence of UTI increases significantly for both males and females. For women between 36 and 65 years of age, gynecologic surgery and bladder prolapse appear to be important risk factors. In men of the same age group, prostatic hypertrophy/obstruction, catheterization, and surgery are relevant risk factors.

  • Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms’’
    MedicineHx–Genitourinary System History of ‘’Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms’’ A. Overview: • Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are either storage, voiding orpost micturition symptoms affecting the lower urinary tract. Prevailing guidelines suggest that the pathogenesis of LUTS is multifactorial and can include one or several diagnoses, commonly benign prostatic obstruction, nocturnal polynocturia and detrusor muscle instability. • Pain in the urinary tract is either due to distention or inflammation. (e.g. urinary retention, ureteric obstruction). Severity of pain is usually related to rapidity of distention rather than the degree of distention. (Chronic distention is usually painless) Different types according to the site 1. Ureteral Pain (Usually acute and secondary to obstruction, the site of obstruction e.g. ureteral stones ) (Mid ureter, lower ureter) can be determined by site of referred pain and/or associated symptoms (LUTS) 2. Vesical pain (Most often by over distention of the UB) • Constant Suprapubic (SP) (Pain that is not related to Acute Urinary Retention is seldom of Urologic origin) • Intermittent SP (Pain is usually related to inflammatory conditions (e.g. Acute Cystitis, Interstitial Cystitis), Worse when the bladder is full and partially relieved by bladder emptying) • Bacterial Cystitis (Pain may be referred to distal Urethra) 3. Prostatic pain • Usually secondary to inflammatory conditions and in the perineum (e.g. Acute Prostatitis) • Referred to lumbosacral spine, inguinal canals or lower extremities. Associated Irritative lower urinary tract symptoms ± Urinary retention 4. Penile and testicular pain • Flaccid Penis: Pain is usually 2ndy to inflammation of Venereal diseases or Paraphimosis. • Erect Penis: Usually due to Peyronie’s disease or Priapism • Primary Acute Testicular Pain arises with acute intrascrotal pathology e.g.
