K. Ca, Mg PO4 Flashcards
what hormone promotes K secretion
aldosterone
what is the normal range of K
3.5-5
what can yo see on ECG with progressive hyperkalemia
high T wave
prolonged PR with high T wave
atrial standstill
ventricular fibrillation
what can you see on ECG with progressive hypokalemia
low T wave
Low T wave and high U wave
Low T wave, high U wave, low ST
What promotes K movement into cells from ECF
hyperkalemia
alkalemia
B adrenergic agnoists
Insulin
What promotes K movement out of cells into ECF
hypokalemia acidemia hyperosmolarity ischemia alpha adrenergic agonists heavy exercise
Where is majority of K reabsorbed
proximal tubule
where is the next are where K reabsorption takes place
TAL via Cl,K,Na cotransporter
where is physiological control of K concentration
in the collecting duct
what cells are responsible for control of K
the principal cells
how does dietary depletion compare in the nephron to dietary increased intake of K
depletion has reabsorption at all places in nephron
increased has secretion at DT and CCD
what is the main driving force for K secretion in collecting tubules
the Na/K ATPase on basolateral side increase K intracell and the tubular lumen is negative charged so goes down its gradient
What are the 5 factors that affect K secretion in collecting duct
extracellular K Na reabsorption (negative charge in lumen) luminal fluid flow rate Extracellular pH aldosterone
what affect does an increase in ECF K concentration have on K secretion
increases
What affect does an increase in Na reabsoprtion have on K secretion
increases because negative lumen charge difference
what affect does increase luminal flow have on secretion of K
increased because dilutes rapidly what was previously secreted to allow for more
what does an decrease in EC pH have on K secretion
excrete H so take in K to keep electroneutral
what affect does inreased aldosterone have on K
stimulates K secretion
What do most diuretics that act on early parts of nephron do to K
cause an increase in K due to Na reabsorption so could lead to hypokalemia
What could a low Na diet change in K concentration
less Na delivery to DT so there would be less K secretion and could lead to hyperkalemia
Does Na amount delivery to DT have little or big affects on K secretion
huge effects
The more alkalotic the blood what happens with K
so want to retain H so will secrete more K
what hormone is released when senses hyperkalemia
aldosterone
how does aldosterone stimulate K secretion
more Na/K ATPase
Insertes K and Na channels on luminal side
