What does ANURIC mean in Scrabble?
adjective
medical
Relating to anuria, the failure of the kidneys to produce urine.
Anuric describes a patient or a condition tied to the kidneys shutting down output almost completely, which is more severe than simply passing less urine than usual. Doctors use anuric to flag an emergency, since the kidneys are not filtering waste from the blood at all. The word is built from the same root as anuria, with the ending changed to make it describe rather than name the condition. It appears in clinical charts and case reports far more than in ordinary conversation.
