18
Q

what is neg Na balance

A

intake less than output

19
Q

5 places Na can be lost

A
  1. skin - sweat and burn oozes
  2. GI - diarrhea or vomiting
  3. kidneys
  4. 3rd space
  5. bleeding
20
Q

3 causes of too much Na from kidneys

A
  1. diuretics (that inhib Na absrob)
  2. glucose diuresis - after diabted mellitus
  3. renal tubular disease
21
Q

what are 3rd space losses

A

fluid that is not in intravasuclr or interstitum - major surg, crush injury

22
Q

2 renal responses to hypovolemia

A
  1. hypotension and renal vasoconstrict. - lower GFR

2. incr. renal Na absorb (Ang, SNS)

23
Q

manifestations of Na loss

A
  1. fatigue
  2. hypotension - may only be postural
  3. tachy
  4. cold sweaty skin (SNS activ)
  5. low urine
  6. circ. shock
24
Q

treatment of volume depletion

A
  1. treat underlying cause

2. give fluids - isotonic

25
Q

what is pos. Na balance

A

intake more than excrete

26
Q

what happens when increase Na intake

A
  1. will increase Na in ECF (more volume)

2. eventually get Na excretion to equal, but never lose the ECF vol

27
Q

how is high ECF vol sensed

A

baroreceptors

28
Q

3 ways body tries to fix ECF vol increase

A
  1. lower Na reabsorb (Ang2, aldo, SNS)
  2. release naturetic peptide
  3. pressure naturesis
29
Q

2 potential problems with Na excretions

A
  1. primary renal prob - failure, nephrotic synd

2. failure in signalling - heart failure, cirrosis

30
Q

what happens in renal falure

A

low GFR - can’t get out Na

31
Q

3 mechanisms in nephrotic syndrome

A
  1. protenuria>hypoalbumenemia>edema
  2. protenuria>activation of eNaC>more Na reabsorbtion
  3. proteinuria>hypoalbumenemia>increase LDL production>hypercholesterolemia
32
Q

what is effect of heart failure

A
  1. low CO

2. leads to Na retention to react to low arterial volume, because volume is all in veins

33
Q

how does cirrosis affect Na balance

A
  1. scar liver
  2. portal hypertenion > blood pools in vessels
  3. low effective art. volume
34
Q

how much edema is detectable

A

3L

35
Q

2 main effects of Na high

A
  1. hypertension

2. edema (esp. pulmonary)

36
Q

treatment of high Na balnce (3)

A
  1. reduce intake
  2. increase Na out
  3. treat underlying issue
37

mech: carbonic anhydrase inhib

38
Q

site of action and mech of furosamide

A

site: ALOH
mech: inhibs Nak2Cl

39
Q

site of action and mech of hydrochlorothiazide and metazone

A

site: DCT
mech: inhib NaCl transporter

40
Q

site of action and mech of spironolactone

A

site: CCD
mech: aldosterone antagonist

41
Q

site of action and mech of amiloride

A

site: CCD
mech: Na channel blocker

42
Q

4 places drugs can work on the RAAS

A
  1. renin inhibitor
  2. ACE inhib
  3. aldosterone antagonist
  4. angiotensin receptor blocker
43
Q

4 clinical uses of RAAS antagonists

A
  1. hypertension
  2. CHfailure
  3. renal disease
  4. after MI
