She describes the discomfort as an intermittent, centrally located "burning" feeling in the upper abdomen, most often with meals and often accompanied by mild nausea. Use of an over-the-counter H2RA affords partial symptom relief. She also uses naproxen sodium on a regular basis for the control of osteoarthritis pain.

Persistent proteinuria Elevated creatinine level Acute uremia Hyperkalemia 6A 68-year-old woman with heart failure presents with tachycardia, S3 heart sound and basilar crackles bilaterally. BP is 90/68 mmHg; BUN is 58 mg/dL (20.7 mmol/L); creatinine level is 2.4 mg/dL. This clinical presentation is most consistent with: Prerenal azotemia Acute glomerulonephritis Tubular necrosis Postrenal azotemia 7The most sensitive and specific test for H. pylori infection from the following list is: Stool Gram stain, looking for the offending organism Serological testing for antigen related to the infection Organism-specific stool antigen testing Serological testing for antigen related to the infection Fecal DNA testing 8A 78-year-old man presents with fatigue and difficulty with bladder emptying. Examination reveals a distended bladder, but otherwise unremarkable. The BUN level is 88 mg/dL (31.4 mmol/L); the creatinine level is 2.8 mg/dL (247.5 mic.mol/L). This clinical assessment is most consistent with: Prerenal azotemia Acute glomerulonephritis Acute tubular necrosis Postrenal azotemia
