Q

PH of plasma is

26
Q

If ratio is >20

A

Alkaline

27
Q

If ration is < 20

A

More acidic

28
Q

[HCO3] is regulated by

A

Kidneys

29
Q

[CO2] regulated by

A

Respiratory system

30
Q

Changes in H+ regulated by

A

Respiratory and kidney systems

31
Q

Second line of defence

A

Respiratory system
-acts at moderate speed
-control rate of CO2 removal

32
Q

Peripheral H+ detection is important

A

When H+ from non-CO2 sources
-carotid bodies, aortic bodies

33
Q

When ventilation is normal

A

Acidosis increases
Alkalosis decreases

34
Q

Rate of CO2 removal is normal

A

Acidosis increases
Alkalosis decreases

35
Q

If pH changes due to respiratory failures

A

Respiratory system cannot contribute

36
Q

Third line of defence

A

Kidneys
-ultimate
-requires hours to days

37
Q

What do kidneys do to control pH

A

-H+ excretion
-HCO3- reabsorption/secretion
-ammonia secretion

38
Q

H+ secreted into tubular fluid at

A

PT, DT, CT
-very little H+ in filtrate
-urine pH 6

39
Q

Inc plasma H+ causes

A

Inc of H+ secretion then excretion, and lowers plasma H+

Inc HCO3- conservation then excretion, and increases plasma HCO3-

40
Q

HCO3- reabsorption is an

A

Active process

41
Q

HCO3- reabsorption depends on

A

Tubular secretion of H+

42
Q

HCO3- excretion in urine

A

Increases H+ in plasma

43
Q

HCO3- addition to plasma

A

Lowers H+ in plasma

44
Q

In H+ excess..

A

New HCO3- generated to a net gain

45
Q

Acidosis H+ secretion and excretion

A

Inc secretion, inc excretion

46
Q

Alkalosis H+ secretion and excretion

A

Dec secretion and excretion

47
Q

PH of urine in response to acidosis

A

Acidic

48
Q

PH in urine response to alkaline

A

Alkaline

49
Q

HCO3- reabsorption and addition of new HCO3- to plasma when acidosis

A

Increases

50
Q

HCO3- reabsorption and addition of new HCO3- to plasma when alkalosis

A

Decreases

51
Q

Urinary fluid buffers

A

-free tubular H+ cannot rise too high
-filtered phosphate
-ammonium

52
Q

Free tubular H+ cannot rise too high

A

Max pH is 4.5

53
Q

Ammonia buffer

A

Takes place in kidney
-metabolism of glutamine to produce ammonia

54
Q

Respiratory acidosis has a ration of

A

Less than 20/1 arising form inc in CO2

55
Q

Respiratory alkalosis has a ratio

A

Greater than 20/1 because of a decrease in CO2

56
Q

Metabolic acidosis has a ratio of

A

Less than 20/1 associated with a fall in HCO3-

57
Q

Metabolic alkalosis has a ratio

A

Greater than 20/1 arising from an elevation in HCO3-

58
Q

Respiratory acidosis response/causes

A

Causes an increase in CO2, such as COPD (hypoventilation)

Responds by increasing plasma HCO3-

59
Q

Metabolic acidosis response/causes

A

Causes a decrease in HCO3-, such as diarrhea

Responds by increasing CO2, conserve more HCO3-

60
Q

Respiratory alkalosis responds/causes

A

Causes a decrease in CO2, example fever or anxiety

Responds by kidney compensation of conserving H+ and excreting HCO3-

61
Q

Metabolic alkalosis responds/causes

A

Causes an inc of HCO3- such as vomiting

Responds by reduced ventilation, retaining CO2 and excess HCO3- is excreted by kidneys
