- 3 day: sulfa: trimethoprim/ sulfa (bactrim) (do not give near delivery of baby, give
cephalexin instead) or sulfa
- 5 days: nitrofurantoin, caution in elderly

Ceftriaxone or cefotaxime
Ampicillin

CAUTI:
bacterial: treat with AB for 7 days
Candiduria: fluconazole for 14 days

Discomfort: Pyridium
10. Management acute complicated bacterial pyelonephritis: - Admit
- Aminoglycosides: gentamicin/ tobramycin (not for monotherapy), based on renal
function (trough less than 2 and peak level 5-10mg/L) and do not give for CKD
- Ampicillin
- Cefazolin
- Cefotaxime and Ceftriaxon based on obesity and pulm disease
11. Urine analysis: glucose and ketones: Serum glucose at least 180mg/dl for
glucose to appear in urine

Glucose in ua caused by:
- Fancone Syndrome (bad wall: caused by ahminoglycosides for example)
- DM
- Cushing's
- Vit C can give false negative

Ketones in urine:
- Alcohol
- Diabetic
- Starvation
12. Acute Kidney Injury: -Acute renal function loss with inability to excrete meta-
bolic waste products (urea nitrogen and creatinine) to inability to maintain fluid and
electrolyte balance.
- Resolves within 3mo
- classified with RIFLE or etiology
13. RIFLE: Risk: creatinine up x 1.5 from baseline, GFR decrease more than 25%
and UO less than 0.5ml/kg/hr for 6hr
