72: Solute Handling Flashcards
Sodium (Na+) is a major cation of the …….. compartment and it determines …….volume
ECF
ECF volume affects:
Plasma Volume
Blood Volume
Blood Pressure
……….. maintain normal body Na+ content/balance so that Na+ intake= Na+ excretion
Kidneys
If there is a positive Na+ balance where Na+ excretion < Na+ intake ………
Na+ retained in ECF which leads to:
Volume expansion
Increase blood volume
Increase in blood pressure
If there is a negative Na+ balance where Na+ excretion > Na+ intake ……….
Na+ lost from ECF which leads to: Volume contraction
Decrease blood volume
Decrease blood pressure
67% of Na+ and K+ is reabsorbed from the ……..
Proximal Convoluted Tubule
100% of Na+ and K+ is filtrated by the……..
Glomerulus
25% of Na+ is reabsorbed from the……..
Thick ascending limb of the Loop of Henle
5% of Na+ is reabsorbed from the…….
Distal Convoluted Tubule
3% of Na+ is reabsorbed from the……
Collecting Duct
Around……% of Na+ is excreted from the body
1%
What happens to the following levels when Na+ intake decreases?
- Sympathetic Activity
- ANP (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide)
- Oncotic Pressure of the Capillary
- Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone
- Sympathetic Activity- INCREASED
- ANP(Atrial Natriuretic Peptide)-DECREASED
- Oncotic Press. of the Capillary- INCREASED
- Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone-INCREASED
What happens to the following levels when Na+ intake increases?
- Sympathetic Activity

- Oncotic Pressure of the Capillary
- Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone
- Sympathetic Activity- DECREASED
- ANP (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide)- INCREASED
- Oncotic PresS. of the Capillary-DECREASED
- Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone-DECREASE
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is secreted by atria in response to …….. in ECF volume
Increase
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) ………. GFR and ………. reabsorptive mechanisms along tubule that results in increase in Na+ and H20 excretion.
Increases GFR (dilate afferent / constrict efferent arterioles) Inhibits Reabsorptive Mechanisms
……….. Blood Pressure in Right Atrium leads to ……….. ANH (Atrial Natriuretic Hormone) that leads to an ……… Na+ and H20 excretion.
Increased Blood Pressure
Increased ANH (Atrial Natriuretic Hormone)
Increased excretion of NA+ and H20
The increase in the excretion of Na+ and H20 leads to water loss and ………… blood pressure
Decreased Blood Pressure
…………. is required for tissues that use action potentials and is found is more abundance in the ICF.
Potassium K+
98% in ICF, 2% in ECF
Small shifts across the membranes causes large changes in plasma and …… concentrations
ECF
K+ Shift into the cells=
Hypokalemia
K+ Shift Out of Cells=
Hyperkalemia
Causes of K+ Shift into Cells: Hypokalemia
- Insulin
- β2-Adrenergic agonists
- α-Adrenergic antagonists
- Alkalemia
- Hyposmolarity
