05.08 - Reg of Body Fluid Osmolarity (Rao) - PP + Handout, No reading Flashcards
4 Causes of Loss of Medullary Hyperosmolarity
(1) Diuretics; (2) Excessive delivery of fluid into LOH; (3) Decreased urea production; (4) Age, renal failure
Ability of kidneys to dilute or concentrate urine depends on
Difference between osmolar clearance and clearance of water
Activation of V2 in CD results in
insertion of Aquaporins into luminal membrane
Actual fluid flow - Cosm =
Free water clearance
ADH receptor in Epithelial cells of CD
V2
ADH responds to both
Posm, ECFV
At what plasma osmolarity does AVP reach max
295 mOsm
At what plasma osmolarity is AVP detectable
270-285 mOsm
AVP increase requires what threshold of ECFV loss
10-15% decrease in ECFV
Cause of Osmotic Diuresis
Hyperosmotic Plasma
Central Diabetes Insipidus results from
Pituitary gland doesn’t release AVP
Common symptom of decreased ability to concentrate urine
Nocturia
Complications of Polydipsia
Hyponatremia, Coma, Death
Cwater =
UF x (1 - Uosm/Posm)
Dec PV after GI loss causes ___, but decreased plasma osmolarity causes ____
Inc AVP, Dec AVP
Difference between osmolar clearance and water clearance is
Free Water Clearance
How does ADH affect Posm, Uosm in Osmotic Diuresis
Remains: High, High
How does ADH affect Posm, Uosm in Primary Polydipsia
Low to Normal, Low to High
How does CD help with Medullary Hyperosmolarity
Active transport of Na into ISF
How does GI fluid loss lead to hyponatremia
(1) AVP release in response to volume; (2) Dilution of plasma; (3) Inc ECF volume; (4) Reduced osmolarity, Hyponatremia
How does heart failure cause hyponatremia
Loss of pressure stimulates hypovolemic hormone release
How does IMCD help with Medullary Hyperosmolarity
Passive diffusion of urea into ISF
How does liver failure cause hyponatremia
Loss of PV stimulates hypovolemic hormone release
How does Thick AL help with Medullary Hyperosmolarity
Active NaCl transport, Co-transport of K and Cl into ISF
How does Water Deprivation affect Posm, Uosm, and ADH in Nephrogenic DI
Increase, No change, Increase
