anuria

English

Etymology

From an- +‎ -uria.

Noun

anuria (countable and uncountable, plural anurias)

1. (medicine) A condition in which the kidneys do not produce urine.
   • 2007, Nain D. Chohan, editor, Nursing: Interpreting Signs & Symptoms, page 39:

     Clinically defined as urine output of less than 100 ml in 24 hours, anuria indicates either urinary tract obstruction or acute renal failure due to various mechanisms. […] Anuria is rare; even with renal failure, the kidneys usually produce at least 75 ml of urine daily.

   • 2008, Ronald M. Perkin, Dale A. Newton, James D. Swift, editors, Pediatric Hospital Medicine: Textbook of Inpatient Management, 2nd edition, page 359:

     Changes in urinary pattern such as polyuria, oliguria, anuria, enuresis, and excessive thirst can be associated with tubular dysfunction.

   • 2011, Boris Lams, “Oliguria”, in Mark Kinirons, Harold Ellis, editors, French's Index of Differential Diagnosis: An A-Z, page 467:

     It goes without saying, therefore, that obstructive anuria can occur only if the outflow from both kidneys or from the only functioning kidney is obstructed.
