58
Q

➔ <135mmol/L
➔ One of the most common
electrolyte disorders
Probable cause
● ↑ sodium loss
(renal and
extrarenal)
● ↑ water retention
● Water imbalance

A

HYPONATREMIA

59
Q

➔ >142 or >145 mmol/L
➔ Less common
Probably cause:
● Excess water oss
● Decreased water
intake
● ↑ sodium intake or
retention

A

HYPERNATREMIA

60
Q

deficiency of aldosterone; one of the effects is the
decrease in the production of
aldosterone which is responsible in
producing sodium

A

Hypoadrenalism

61
Q

➔ Low potassium levels in the body
means the tubules will prioritize the
conservation of potassium
➔ Will include Sodium deficiency as
well

A

Potassium Deficiency

62
Q

Diuretics are medications that will
allow patients to lose water
➔ Diuretics are commonly prescribed to patients with edema

A

Diuretic

63
Q

Not good for the body
Will lead to water intoxication

A

Excess water intake

64
Q

The body retained water because of
abnormal release of antidiuretic
hormone

A

SIADH
Syndrome of
Inappropriate
arginine
vasopressin
hormone
secretion

65
Q

66
Q

Medication that blocks the action of the
antidiuretic hormone

67
Q

● Excess loss of water relative to sodium loss

A

HYPERNATREMIA

68
Q

Deficiency of ADH

A

Neurogenic

69
Q

Renal Tubules cannot respond to ADH

A

Nephrogenic

70
Q

The problem is in the pituitary gland being
unable to secrete ADH
○ You will not be able to reabsorb water; you
will lose water, leading to very high plasma
osmolality

A

Neurogenic

71
Q

Pituitary can produce ADH, but nephrons
cannot recognize them
○ The ADH’s target part is the collecting duct
of the nephron, because once it binds there
it will facilitate the reabsorption of water in
the nephrons

A

Nephrogenic

72
Q

Commonly occurs in those persons who may be
thirsty but who are unable to ask for or obtain water
(adults with altered mental status and infants)

A

Decreased water intake
