Manejo da insuficiência renal aguda em cães e gatos

Acute renal failure (ARF) may be defined as a subtle loss of renal function, leading to accumulation of nitrogenated substances. Several causes may lead to the development of ARF in an animal, including severe shock, intense blood loss, hypotension, dehydration, hypovolemia, deep anesthesia and nephrotoxins. Fluid therapy remains the basis of ARF treatment in animals. Thee therapeutic objective is to normalize fluid balance, solve hemodynamic problems and promote urine production. The objective of the present study is to review the procedures to manage acute renal failure in dogs and cats.
