Q

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor

  • MOA
  • examples
  • indications: mountain sickness, glaucoma, stones
  • SE
A
  • prevent H and bicarb from being made from carbonic acid -> H cant get pushed into lumen and exhanged for Na -> if Na stays in lumen so will water -> Na combines with Bicarb in lumen and alkanalizes it causing acidosis in body
  • acute mountain sickness -> the hypoxia causes edema and resp alkalosis -> will get rid of water and cause met acidosis balancing out the resp alkalosis and causing normal pH
  • bicarb needed for production of aq humor
  • met acidosis, renal stones (Ca and PHosphate bc of alkanalized urine), renal K wasting (bc Na-Biacarb formation causes decreased Na which increases renin); inhibits conversion of NH3 to NH4 -> hepatic encelopahty
  • Acetazolamide

  • blocks triple transporter -> osmotic gradient for water reabsorption decreased; also stimulate release of prostaglandins
  • furosemide, torsemide, bumentanide or ethacrynic acid (non sulfa)
  • CHF, pulm edema, edema, hypercalcemia, severe htn, forced diuresis for drug/chemical intoxication
  • ototox, hypokalemia (both from triple transporter and renin), dehydration, allergy (sulfa -> also for preg bc of kernicterus), nephritis, gout (not peeing out uric acid); hypokalemic met alkalosis (bc once K gets too low it will trade K for H)
  • triple transporter doesnt work, looks as if on loop but not, BP will be normal or low

  • sulfa drug
  • secreted into PCT but exert effects on DCT
  • block Na-Cl symporter -> decrease water reabsorption
  • increase Na/ Cl excretion, decrease Ca excretion, inhibit uric acid secretion (watch out for gout), increase Mg excretion
  • sex dysfunction, worsening of DM (Na/ Cl not reabsorbed -> low Na -> increase in renin -> low K -> no depolarization in beta cells -> Ca not allowed into cell and no insulin release); insulin blocks hormone sensitive lipase and since there is decrease in insulin then will have release of stored triglycerides
  • HTN, CHF, edema, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus

  • prevents myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis
  • heart failure, aldosteronism caused by cirrhosis
  • can never be taken with ACE i, and ARB (increase K by inhibiting RAAS), NSAID (decrease renin secretion), K+ supplementation

Q

SIADH

  • what is it
  • common cause
  • effects on blood
  • effect on urine
  • TX
A
  • increase ADH -> excessive water reabsorption in kidneys
  • small cell lung CA; produces similar to ADH w/o negative feedback
  • dilute blood -> hyponatremic, hypervolemic
  • hypervolemia causes decrease of RAAS -> decrease reabsorption of Na and water -> so water begins to balance out but Na will still be low
  • ADH antagonist -> conicaptan (v1 and v2) other vaptans only block V2; demeclocyline and lithium will inhibit action of ADH at some point distal to cAMP

Diabetes Inspidus

  • sxs
  • psychogenic: cause, dx, tx
  • nurogenic: caused by, dx
  • nephrogenic: caused by,
  • managment
  • tx
A
  • polyuria and polydipsia
  • excess fluid intake causing them to be hypervolemic and suppresses release of ADH (bc of defect in thirst mech of hypothalamus), restricting fluid for 24 hr will concentrate urine,
  • post pit -> cannot secrete ADH; give synthetic ADH and will concentrate urine
  • kidney cannot respond to ADH (lithium);
  • admit -> do basline UA -> restrict water (if concentrates then psychogenic) -> give desmopressin (if [] then neurogenic but if no concentration then nephrogenic)
  • thiazide -> pee out Na and water so slowly decrease serum Na and serum osmolarity so no more trigger for thirst

How to answer body water questions

  • loss of isotonic fluid: ex, what is affected
  • gain of isotonic fluid: ex, what is affected
  • loss hypotonic fluid: ex, what happens, fix
  • gain of hypotonic fluid: ex, what happens
  • gain of hypertonic fluid
  • loss hypertonic fluid
A
  • vomiting, diarrhea, hemorrhage; only vascular volume is decreased, concentration remains the same -> since concentration remains same fluid will not move
  • administration of isotonic saline; only vascular space affected
  • dehydration, DI, alcohol; osmolarity increases of blood -> water from cell move out to help, shrinkage of cells, give isotonic fluid
  • water intoxication or giving hypotonic saline; fluid gain in vascular space, dilute blood, water moves into cell -> cellular swelling
  • hypertonic saline, mannitol use; increase osmolarity in vasculature, fluid pulled from ICF into vascular -> cell shrinkage
  • loop diuretics, thiazide diuretics, addisons dx; intravascular decreased and osmolality decreased, intracellular is more concentrated -> cell swelling

  • decrease resp rate -> resp acidosis
  • for every 2 bicarb made, 1 pCO2 exhaled
  • vomiting, or NG tube that sicks out gastric contents
  • hyper aldosteronism -> alodosterone is causing to reabsorb Na and kick out K -> hypo kalemia -> start reabsorbing K and trade it for H+ -> loss H+ -> met alk; aldosterone receptor block, remove tumor
  • same mech -> work through RAAS
  • if associated w/ RAAS (low volume) -> then saline will stop problem
  • CONNs syndrome bc saline will not stop the secretion of aldosterone

  • type 4: what is it, what happens to HCO3 and K, urinary pH, urine anion gap
  • urine anion gap
A
  • impaired distal H+ excretion -> alpha intercalated cells do not work -> increase in H+ -> bicarb low bc need to neutralize H -> also have to get rid of positive charges someway so will excrete K+; urinary ph > 5.5; + urine anion gap
  • reduced bicarb reabsorption in PCT -> bicarb is really low; k is low (only if fanconi syndrome because reabsorption in PCT would be affected) or normal; urinary pH < 5.5 bc can secrete H+; no anion gap bc shouldnt be elevated levels of Na or K
  • aldosterone resistance or decrease in secretion -> elevation in K levels; mild acidosis bc decrease ability to secrete H -> looks like elevated bicarb; yes
