A subsequent urinalysis shows numerous granular casts. Which of the following is the most appropriate treatment? 

A. Broad-spectrum antibiotics
B. Corticosteroids

E. Use of ultrasound to remove blockage 

We break down the concepts in simple terms in shorter videos so students can focus on the Educational Objective to get a deep understanding of the concept.
