The genitourinary (GU) system plays a pivotal role in both waste elimination and reproduction. For healthcare professionals, particularly those in emergency and critical care settings, a thorough understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the GU system is indispensable.
Today, we're going to get up close and personal with the Genitourinary (GU) system. We’re talking kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra—everything that helps keep waste in check and fluid levels steady. We’ll also dig into how male and female reproductive systems differ and why hormones like RAS and ADH are crucial for keeping blood pressure and fluid balance in line.
Why does this matter? Because understanding the GU system is key to handling everything from the usual urinary tract infections to serious stuff like acute kidney injuries and complex traumas.
And it’s not just about knowing what’s what; it’s about spotting those critical symptoms- watch for symptoms such as joint pain from gout, stay on top of kidney function, and perfect those catheterization skills.
So whether you’re dealing with chronic issues or emergency situations, a deep dive into the GU system will help you deliver top-notch care.
Key topics discussed:
- Anatomy of the GU system - kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra.
- How your body makes pee
- GU trauma and disorders that'll mess you up
- Assessing urine output
- Why you need to stop inflating catheter balloons
