summary

We should know that urea nitrogen and serum creatinine are the two most important indicators of renal function. The high and low value of urea nitrogen reflects the good and bad of renal function. Urea nitrogen is higher than the normal value. The fasting urea nitrogen of normal adults ranged from 3.2 to 7.1. However, due to a variety of renal parenchymal lesions, such as glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis, acute and chronic renal failure, renal space occupying and destructive lesions, blood urea nitrogen can be increased. Therefore, there are the following reasons for high urea nitrogen.

What is the reason for high urea

The first reason may be renal dysfunction caused by high renal function, such as acute nephritis, chronic nephritis, toxic nephritis, severe pyelonephritis, renal tuberculosis, renal arteriosclerosis, congenital polycystic kidney and renal tumor. These will lead to high urea nitrogen.

The second reason is the high prerenal sex, which is seen in congestive heart failure, severe burns, shock, gastrointestinal bleeding, dehydration, severe infection, diabetic acidosis, adrenocortical dysfunction, hepatorenal syndrome, etc. In this case, urea nitrogen will also be above the normal range.

The third reason, if the patient's urinary tract obstruction leads to increased renal tissue pressure, resulting in high urea nitrogen in urine is a very common situation. This kind of situation must go to the hospital to check out which segment of urinary tract is blocked before further treatment.

matters needing attention

In addition, for patients with high urea nitrogen, the total calories of food should be reduced in diet. Abstinence diet, to prevent obesity, usually pay attention to diet, eat some fresh fruits and vegetables, supplement high-quality protein in order to control the urea nitrogen value continues to rise.
