Answer: Dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces proximal to a blockage

The urinary tract obstruction is a blockage of the flow of urine out of the body. It is characterized by the dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces proximal to a blockage, which results to hydronephrosis and progressive fall in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). 

Moreover, it is expected that the obstruction is due to a reduction in nephron glomerular filtration rate and a reduced number of filtering nephrons.

The urinary tract obstruction means impeding urine's flow in the normal path that includes kidneys, ureters, urethra and bladder. It can lead to kidney problems such as kidney damage,stones and even infection. The 25 years old female diagnosed with this has hydronephrosis and decreased GFR caused by the dilation of renal pelvis and calyces adjacent to a blockage.

A patient complains of a “stabbing pain and a burning sensation” in his left foot. the nurse notices that the foot is a lighter
lyudmila [28]
The answer that best completes the statement above is this: POSTERIOR TIBIAL. Based on the nurse's assessment, stabbing pain and burning sensation is reported as the subjective cue and the skin of the foot is lighter. Given this result, this would clearly mean that the artery in the left foot is being occluded. And the artery present here is the posterior tibial artery. The stabbing pain and burning sensation being felt of the patient is a result of lack of oxygen in the area since the blood can no longer circulate.
