Decreased SG, meaning your urine is too diluted
81
What SG would you expect for a DM patient?
Low SG due to the decrease in ADH-> causing frequent urine output

What effect would aldosterone release have on blood pressure and urine output?
Aldosterone increases Na and water-> increases BV-> increases BP
Decrease in urine output due to your body holding onto Na and where Na goes, water follows
84
Hyperventilating causes you to:
