Renal system: The renal system also known as the urinary system involves all of the organs in the formation and releases urine. This includes the kidneys, bladder, ureters and urethra. The kidneys are a bean shaped organ which helps the body produce urine to get rid of unwanted waste. When urine is formed, the tubes are called ureters, this transports it to the urinary bladder, where it is collected and excreted through the urethra. The kidneys are an important part of the renal system. They are
Know Your Body – Kidneys Introduction The excretory system of the human-body consists of two kidneys (Vrrka in Ayurveda), ureter (Gavini in Ayurveda), urinary-bladder (Mutrashya in Ayurveda) and urethra. The kidney plays important role in the treatment of blood-pressure. Kidney stone is the commonest disease seen in clinical practice. Fig: Anatomy of human excretory system Anatomy of the excretory system A comprehensive description of the components of the excretory system is discussed
The pelvic floor is formed by the pelvic diaphragm which consits of muscles the levator ani and the coccygeus. It resembles like a ham-mock structure. The pelvic diaphragm separates the perineum below from the pelvis above. Pelvic Fascia and the Muscles The pelvic fascia is distributed in the extra peritoneal space of the pelvis. It covers the lateral pelvic wall and the pelvic floor called parietal pelvic fascia and also surrounding the pelvic viscera called visceral pelvic fascia. Muscles Pelvic
diagnosed with overactive bladder syndrome. Overactive bladder syndrome is a syndrome where a person regularly forces by his desire to pass urine and this sensation cannot be delay and can be happen anytime during the day or night without any warning. She currently was taking on medication of 5 mg Oxybutynin twice daily. Mrs. Miller complained that the side effects of Oxybutynin result her mouth to feel very dry. We can conclude from her situation that she having nocturia and urinary urgency. There are
Urinary incontinence is the health condition that has caught my attention. According to National Institutes of Health (NIH), urinary incontinence is the “loss of bladder control. Symptoms can range from mild leaking to uncontrollable wetting.” It can happen to anyone but urinary continence affects mainly the elderly and women have double the risk of being infected (NIH 2013). A study done by Reviews in Urology indicates the highest number of urinary continence cases is at the period of menopause
under a magnifying glass. These are called kidney stones. As long as they are small enough to pass through the urinary without causing obstruction, they create very few issues. When they get large enough, they can become lodged in the bladder tubing or the ureter. The result is intense pain felt in the lower back and groin areas. As the kidney stones attempt to continue moving through the urinary tract, they can cause bleeding into the urine, which tends to frighten many people. Possible treatments range

his urinary track; a small white object was visible. Relevancy: I know that most of you never knew that cats could get kidney stones or even a blockage in the urinary track. A urinary obstruction is a blockage of the urethral outflow. Although it is more common in male cats, female cats can also have a urinary blockage. Urinary obstructions in a cat should be treated as an emergency. Without proper care your cat will die. This is a sudden onset and the cat could lose the fight of the urinary obstruction

Some researchers were able to use a new device called a MinION that allows them to characterize bacteria four times faster than
