Practice this chapter

The renal system comprises the kidneys, urinary bladder, ureters, and urethra, with the kidneys being the primary organs The kidneys filter blood and remove serum wastes, balance fluids, maintain blood pressure, maintain acid-base balance, and excrete wastes.

The kidneys also reabsorb certain products including glucose, amino acids, bicarbonate, water, phosphate, chloride, sodium, magnesium, and potassium ions Engagement is considered an essential pillar for successful health management because barriers to following the nutritional plan are more likely to be identified.

urinary bladder — a hollow organ posterior to the symphysis pubis that acts as a storage reservoir for urine before excretion. ureters — two hollow tube-like ducts that allows passage of urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder. urethra — the hollow tube-like duct that allows urine passage from the bladder to the outside of the body. kidneys — a pair of bean-shaped organs that filter out blood wastes and excrete urine.

Worked example

What does “urinary bladder” mean in Applying Clinical Judgment to Promote Nutrition for Renal Wellness?

  1. 1Use the wording this chapter gives for urinary bladder.
  2. 2The book says: a hollow organ posterior to the symphysis pubis that acts as a storage reservoir for urine before excretion.
  3. 3Do not use the meaning of ureters. That term means two hollow tube-like ducts that allows passage of urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.

Result: a hollow organ posterior to the symphysis pubis that acts as a storage reservoir for urine before excretion

Why. That is the meaning this chapter gives for urinary bladder.

Do not swap urinary bladder and ureters. urinary bladder means a hollow organ posterior to the symphysis pubis that acts as a storage reservoir for urine before excretion. ureters means two hollow tube-like ducts that allows passage of urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder.
