5 Electrolyte/fluid balance Flashcards
0
Q
S/S of hyponatremia
A
Nausea, vomiting, weakness, headache, lethargy, seizures, respiratory depression, death
1
Q
Receptors for ADH release
A
Baroreceptors and Osmoreceptors
2
Q
Creatnine
A
Used to estimate GFR (changes at lower creatnine level reflect larger GFR change)
Creatnine is excreted so its not a perfect for estimating GFR
3
Q
Renal Nerve
A
Sympathetic nerve that increases renin release
4
Q
1,2 dihydroxyvitamin D functions
A
increases calcium reabsorption in the intestines
Inhibits release of PTH
5
Q
Kidney disease and Ca/Phos
A
Decreased vit D,
Decreased calcium resorption
increased phosphate reabsorption
resultant increase in PTH
Extraosseous calcifications and brittle bones.
