Integrative Flashcards
pH range
7.35-7.45
Describe HCO3 reabsorption?
Baso = HCO3 Na sym Apical = NHX
Intercalated has pump and HCO3 Na sym
From Glutamine/ a ketoglutarate and from CO2 carbonic anydrase.
Ammonia creasted rom glutamine and moves freely into lumen to trap H+
Anion gap calculation?
NAK- ClHCO3
Causes of metabolic acidosis with a normal anion gap?
REnal tubular necrosis
Diarrhoea (as HCO3 replaced by Cl-)
Body fluids and volumes in each
1/4 of ECF = plasma
ECF = 1/3
ICP = 2/3
so 12L dextrose to replace 1 L of blood
Stimulates thirst
AngioII
Hyothalamus-osmoreceptors
low saliva from tonicity
How can Diabetes lead to shock?
DKA = urinary loss of fluid
Describe types of clinical incident
Patient saftey Incident (PSI)
Near miss
Serious untoward incident (SUI)
Never event = preventaple PSI
How to report a clinical incident
Datix reporting
Inform key line managers
Describe the sites of haemopoesis in the fetus
0-2 months = yolk sac 2-5 months = liver and spleen 5-9 months = bone marrow Infants this is most bones Adults in vertebrae, ribs, sternum, sacrum, pelvis and ends of femur
What is bone marrow? Colours?
Stem cells supported by stroma
Red marrow (haemopoetic) vs yellow marrow (fatty)
All red at birth
Myeoloid progenitor vs myeloblast?
Myeoloid progenitor also produces Magakaryocyte, eythrocyte and mast cells
Describe myeloblast to neutrophul
Myeloblat Promyelocyte Myelocyte Metamyeolcyte Band cell (c shae) Neutrophil
Nucleus starts large and cytoplasm grows so it shrinks
Describe myeloid progenitor to RBC
Proerythro
Normoblast
Reticulocyte
Red cell
Haemoglobinisation of cytoplasma
Nuclear maturation and nuclear extrusion
Platelet production controlled by?
Thrombopoietin (TPO)
Structure of the spleen?
Red pulp - sinuses lined by endothelial macrophages and cords
White pulp - like lymph follicles (white cells and plasma preferentialy pass here and red through red pulp)
Descrie the functions of the sleen
Phagocytosis
Blood pooling- activation of platelets and RBCs if bleeding
Haemopoiesis (from pluripotent) Extramedullary
Immunologicao - T and B cells
Causes of splenomegaly
Massive - keukaemia, malaria, myelofibrosis
Moderate - Liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension and above
Mild- as above also infections e.h. hep and glandular fever, hepatits, endocarditis, sarcoidosis
Pancytopeia from enlarged spleen possibke
Causes of hyposplenism
Caeliac and Sickle cell
Risk of sepsis
Define aplastic anaemia
Pancytopenia with hypocellular bone marrow with no infiltration or fibrosis
Can be idiopathic
COngenital deficit in B cells?
X linked hypogammablobulinaemia Low IgA,M No tonsils Recessive Early
What is ataxia talangiectasia
Thymic hypoplasma, low B cells
BMTransplant
Neutrophil congenital deficiency
Chronic granulomatous disease
X linked recessive
Persistent infections of mucous membrane
BMT
Aquired B cell deficiency
Hypogammaglobulinaemia
Chronic lymphatic leukaemia and other lymphoproliferativevm nephrotic
Aquired T Cell immunodeficiency
HIV, Chemo, Hodgkins, immunosuppression
What is myelodysplasia
Non-functioning neutrophils
Describe cytomegalovirus
In immunocompromised patients
Pneumonitis, oesophagitis, colitis, hepatitis
Black spots?
What do Stellate cells in the liver do?
Secrete ECM so more in disease
NYHA Functional calssification of HF
Class I no syptoms/ limitations
II - slight limit and symptoms in physical
III - Marked limitation and symptoms in physical act
IV - At rest, discomfort with any phys
Heart diagram in systolic and dialstolic
Hypertrophy in dia
Dilated in systolic
Describe diastolic heart failure
Elderly and female Hypertension, DM, obesity Reduced LV compliance and relaxation Unable to compensate by increasing EDP Low cardiac output results
