T79: Certain early complications of trauma, not elsewhere classified

T79.5: Traumatic anuria

There are normally 2 kidneys in the body. They filter blood and create urine. They thus help to detoxify the body. Furthermore, the kidneys regulate blood pressure and the mineral levels in the blood, among other things.

When injury occurs, muscles can be damaged. Muscle tissue can be damaged by the injury itself. However, it may be that an injury prevents an adequate blood supply to muscle tissue, and it is damaged as a result.

If muscles are damaged, muscle proteins can be excreted with the urine. Muscle proteins being in the urine can make the urine turn reddish-brown. If a large amount of muscle protein is excreted with the urine, then the kidneys can get damaged as a result. When the kidneys are damaged, they can only perform their tasks to a limited degree. As a result, you may only pass a small amount of urine or even none at all.

The mineral levels and the acidity in the blood may also change. There is also a possibility of low blood pressure and circulatory shock. A circulatory shock involves having major problems with the circulatory system. As a result, some areas of the body no longer get a sufficient supply of blood.
