Urinary Disorders
Factors
The calculi formation founded in a urinary tract takes place if the patient does not drink enough fluid which in turn develops the highly concentrated filtrate. It also occurs when there is a large number of insoluble salts in the filtrates (Korneev et al. 2016). The patient in this casework for long while standing and more so unable to take adequate breaks where he could empty his bladder besides not drinking enough water.
The Test results
WBC: WBC count will be raised with the help of left shift
X-ray: stones can be seen as well
Blood calcium level: increased level of calcium
CT scan: stone can be seen as well
Treatments
The initial treatment, in this case, would be pain and fluids relief. At this point, the stones pass out. The second step has to do with lithotripsy. The stone in the patient at this point is treated through the help of ultrasound. Then lastly, there would be advancing a catheter to stone and use the laser to break it out through the process known as ureteroscopy.
The Plan to prevent recurrence post-treatment
The best alternative preventable measures of kidney stone are efficient fluid intake. The individual should take enough water daily. The daily recommended amount of water to betake is 8 glasses. Taking enough water aids in the prevention of most types of kidney stones. Further, other preventive measures that can be employed entails the reduction of intake of sodium and increasing intake of the calcium-rich food as well as reducing the daily consumption of protein (Brubaker, & Wolfe, 2017). It is also necessary to treat the underlying cause of the formation of the stone for instance adjusting the PH level of urine through consuming the additional alkaline, supplements, and acidic food while increasing the fluid intake including water.
