div style float right border solid 10px white Renal worksheet div In the renal physiology physiology of the kidney , renal blood flow RBF is the volume of blood delivered to the kidneys per unit time. In humans, the kidneys together receive roughly 22 of cardiac output , amounting to 1.1 L min in a 70 kg adult male. RBF is closely related to renal plasma flow RPF , which is the volume of blood plasma delivered to the kidneys per unit time. While the terms generally apply to artery arterial blood delivered to the kidneys, both RBF and RPF can be used to quantify the volume of vein venous blood exiting the kidneys per unit time. In this context, the terms are commonly given subscripts to refer to arterial or venous blood or plasma flow, as in RBF sub a sub , RBF sub v sub , RPF sub a sub , and RPF sub v sub . Physiologically, however, the differences in these values are negligible so that arterial flow and venous flow are often assumed equal. Renal plasma flow Renal plasma flow is the volume of blood plasma plasma that reaches the kidneys per unit time. Renal plasma flow is given by the Fick principle math RPF frac U x V P a P v math This is essentially a conservation of mass equation which balances the renal inputs the renal artery and the renal outputs the renal vein and ureter . Put simply, a non metabolizable solute entering the kidney via the renal artery has two points of exit, the renal vein and the ureter.

In the context of chronic kidney disease, they are to be regarded as life extending treatments though if chronic kidney disease is managed well with dialysis, and a compatible transplant is found early and is a success, the clinical course can be quite favorable . In certain acute conditions or injuries resulting in failure, a person who likewise had a good response to dialysis, who got a kidney relatively quickly if indicated and whose body did not reject the transplanted compatible kidney and who has no other significant health problems, could very well survive for many years, with relatively good kidney function, before needing intervention again . Early dialysis and, if indicated, early renal transplantation in acute renal failure usually brings more favorable outcomes.
