Acute vasomotor nephropathy



Acute vasomotor nephropathy on chronic kidney disease, stage IV.  The patient presented with BUN of 54 and a creatinine of 16.6.  Her baseline from 09/2014 was a BUN of 34 and a creatinine of 3.9.  Acute vasomotor nephropathy likely brought on by dehydration.  Our plan here will be to rehydrate the patient.  We will also repeat BMP.  We will also invite renal team to see the patient.  Fatigue could also be explained by dehydration.
