Kidney numbers pt 2 Flashcards
Plasma oncotic pressure in middle of glomerular capillaries:
32 mmHg
Plasma oncotic pressure in afferent arteriole:
28 mmHg
Plasma oncotic pressure in beginning of glomerular capillaries:
28 mmHg
Plasma oncotic pressure at the end of glomerular capillaries:
36 mmHg
Hydrostatic pressure of the tubule:
18 mmHg
Protein osmotic pressure in the early part of the tubule:
0 mmHg
Net filtration pressure of kidney:
10 mmHg
Filtration rate of kidney:
125 mL/min
KF (filtration coefficient) in kidney:
12.5 mL/min/mmHg
How to solve for filtration coefficient?
Filtration rate / NFP
In kidney:
125 mL/min (filtration rate) divided by 10 mmHg (NFP) = 12.5 mL / min / mmHg
How did we get NFP of the kidney?
Take the pressure that promotes filtration - pressures that oppose filtration
60 mmHg (BP in glomerular capillaries) - 32 mmHg (osmotic pressure of glomerular capillaries) - 18 mmHg (Hydrostatic pressure of the tubule) = 10 mmHg
Filtration rate equation
Filtration rate = NFP x KF
Relaxation of the efferent arteriole = ____ upstream pressure, ___ filtration
reduced, less
Constriction of the efferent arteriole = ___ upstream pressure, ___ filtration
higher, more
BP at the end of the efferent arteriole
18 mmHg
Difference in bp between the glomerular capillaries and end of efferent arteriole
42 mmHg decrease
What % of stuff that is filtered is reabsorbed?
99%
What % of stuff that is filtered is excreted?
1-2%
