Answer to Question 1

 AKI patients are likely to produce <500 ml urine per day at the gfr's lowest level; these patients can develop fluid and electrolytes disorders, azotemia, wasting, especially if they are both oliguric hypercatabolic.
 It is possible that the AKI was due to his post-op hypotensive event/shock or the infection later on.

Answer to Question 2

 Many people with hypertension do not experience any symptoms at all initially.
 Others experience headachesespecially upon waking. These headaches may be accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
 Long-term symptoms may include blurred vision, unsteady gait, nocturia, and edema.
