(LEC) Electrolytes & Sodium Flashcards
Anion Electrolytes
Bicarbonate
Chloride
Phosphate
Lactate
Cation Electrolytes
Calcium
Magnesium
Potassium
Sodium
Where sodium goes, what follows?
chloride
May result to arrhythmia if these electrolytes are low
Potassium and Calcium
Organs that maintains the acid-base balance in the body
Kidney & Lungs
Electrolyte that makes blood more alkaline
Bicarbonate
Calcium is a part of what coagulation factor
Factor IV
In Centrifuged blood, where can Electrolytes be found
Plasma
Water distribution is controlled by what
Electrolytes & Proteins
Process where water can move across the membrane
Osmosis
Osmosis or Diffusion:
Water is the one who’s moving
Osmosis
Osmosis or Diffusion:
Solute is the one who’s moving
Diffusion
Diffusion from high concentration to lower concentration
Simple Diffusion
Diffusion with the use of a channel
Facilitated Diffusion
unit for Osmolality
mOsm/kg
Normal Plasma Osmolality
275 - 295 mOsm/kg
What happens to plasma osmolality in excess water intake
Low Plasma Osmolality
What happens to plasma osmolality during dehydration
High Plasma Osmolality
Status of AVP and thirst in Water Load
Suppressed
Status of AVP and thirst in Water Deficit
Activated
Between Angiotensin II and Angiotensin III, which is more biologically active
Angiotensin II
Initiates Sodium reabsorption in exchnage of potassium
Aldosterone
5 Factors that maintain Body Water Balance
- Thirst Center from Hypothalamus
- Angiotensin II
- Aldosterone
- Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP)
- Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) / Vasopressin
Increase or Decrease in Urine Osmolality:
Diabetes Insipidus
Decreased
