because urethra is injured even if it is a pratial rupture........trying to put a catheter will make it complete and danger of going outside bladder and to the peritoneum.

so rule is not to even try a catheter in case of suspected rupture urtra.....rather go for suprapubic cystostomy.

Rhabdomyolysis<myoglobinuria<tubular obstruction<Acute renal failure
Therapy :alkalinization of urine and increase urine flow facilitates myoglobine excretion.

Increase urine flow -by nonelectrolyte solute diuresis=osmotic diuresis =Mannitol

Also use Sodium Bicarbonate to alkalinize the urine

Thanks Mony but still a bit confused, in acute renal failure secondary to rhabdomyolysis, line of management is often:

Large volumes of fluid up to 12L/d
IV mannitol or urinary alkalinization; see OHCM6 pg 281. Don't you think fluid challenge should be a better option in this case?

Management steps include:

increasing a fluid challenge to ensure that the urine output is at least 1-2 mls/kg/hour
alkalinization of the urine:
reduces urinary crystallisation of haemochromogens
add sodium bicarbonate to the resuscitation fluid at 25 mmol/litre of fluids
forced diuresis:
mannitol added to the fluids
12.5 g/litre of fluids

I don't think that just fluid challenge is enough.It's needed alkalinization of urine because there are lactic acidosis, increased uric acid and also it decreases myoglobine cristallization on tenal tubes. Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic,inhibits tubular reabsorption of electrolytes by increasing osmotic pressure of glomerular filtrate. Increases urinary output.
Mannitol has many pros and cons but there is no doubt about large fluid volume and urine alkalinisation(I don't remember if alkalinization was an option).

since these two approaches (fluid challenge, iv mannitol) are included in the options, how then do we chose the correct one from the two. Note that OHCM6 pg281 even specified large volumes of fluid "up to 12litres per day" whereas in the option we have "IV 500ml mannitol" . How then do we get this 12Litres of fluid per day from just 500ml of mannitol? Fluid challenge means just giving a specified(usually large) volumes of fluid within a given time before probably stabilizing the amount of fluid administered....I think fluid challenge is the better option. more comments!

I agree wid Drstanilo!

the immediate life saving step for rhabdomyolysis is rapid expansion of intravascular volume wid large
quantity of crystalloids.

while '12 ltrs of fluid' is absolutely essential, '500 ml of mannitol' may be desirable but not absolutely essential.
