Overview
Physical examination is helpful to differentiate other causes of acute nephropathy, examples for different presentations include rash in drug-induced interstitial nephritis, blue toe and livedo reticularis in case of embolism. Some risk factors can be detected as evidence of volume depletion, and decompensated CHF, and correcting these factors help improving the outcome.
