PY - 2015 T2 - Clinical Pharmacology for Anesthesiology AB - Kidneys perform a number of essential physiologic functions, including water management, electrolyte homeostasis, acid–base balance, and several neurohumoral and hormonal functions. Anesthesiologists are often called upon to (1) assess and manage perioperative oliguria (Table 18–1); (2) provide renal protection; and (3) use renal function to achieve goals not directly related to urine output, such as decreasing brain swelling or decreasing accumulation of fluid in lung alveoli.
