Nephron - Function
• Filtration of water-soluble substances from
blood
• Reabsorption of filtered nutrients, water and
electrolytes
• Secretion of wastes or excess substances into
the filtrate
• Different segments specialize to accomplish
these tasks.

• 20-25% of normal cardiac output (1000ml – 1300
ml/min) of blood perfuses the kidney  promotes
glomerular filtration

• Urinalysis – gross and microscopic exam of
urine to evaluate ph, specific gravity and
presence of abnormal substances and formed
elements
• Gross exam – color, clarity, odor, sediment
• Microscopic – RBC, WBC, epithelial cells, casts,
crystals, bacteria, pH
• Specific gravity – concentration of solutes,
hydration status, functional ability of kidney
(1.010-1.025) ↓ Renal function ↓ Concentrating ability specific

Oliguria –↓urine output less than 400ml/day (dehydrate
Anuria – urine output less than 50ml/day

Nocturia – excessive urination at night
Hematuria – red blood cells in the urine (either microscopic/ gross)
Proteinuria – abnormal amounts of protein in
the urine
