Q

What enzyme does Acetazolamide inhibit?

What will happen when this enzyme is inhibited?

A

Carbonic Anhydrase

Carbonic anhydrase contributes to HCO3- reabsorption. If this enzyme is inhibited there would be a decrease in bicarb reabsorption.

Q

What transporter will Hydrochlorothiazide act on?

What transporter will Triamterene act on?

Why will these two be given together?

A

Inhibit Na+/Cl- transporter in the DCT.

Q

What will happen if there is SNS activity to the kidneys?

A

Constriction of afferent arterioles that will lead to stimulation of Renin release at the juxtaglomerular cells, resulting in more ANG II. There will also be more Aldosterone release.

Action of SNS on beta receptors in the kidney is to conserve fluid.

Q

Why isn’t urine output a perfect way to measure kidney health

A

Urine output isn’t necessarily correlated to good renal perfusion. The constriction of the efferent arteriole can increase GFR and increase urine output, but also decrease renal blood flow/perfusion. (34:00)

A

Renal Insufficiency 20-50% of normal GFR (25 to 62.5 cc/min)

25
Q

What percentage of our normal GFR would be considered renal failure?

A

Renal Failure 5-20% of normal GFR (6.25 to 25 cc/min)

26
Q

What percentage of our normal GFR would be considered End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD)?

A

ESRD <5% of normal GFR (less than 6.25 cc/min)

27

A

Na+ restriction
K+ restriction

Volume restriction

28
Q

Do not take this group of medication if you have kidney issues.

Why?

A

NSAIDs

NSAIDs decrease prostaglandin productions, that are important to the renal medulla areas. The blood vessels in those areas are dependent on prostaglandins for vasa recta perfusion. (57:00)

29
Q

The prostaglandins that determine medullary renal blood flow are _________ derivatives.

A

COX-2

(58:00)

30
Q

What are problems that can result from renal failure?

A

Acidosis
Low Ca+
Anemia

31
Q

As creatinine is going up, GFR is trending _________.

A

Down

32
Q

What is normal concentration of creatinine in the blood?

How much creatinine is filtered each minute normally?

The amount of creatinine removed is dependent on ________.

A

1 mg/dL

1.25 mg/min

GFR

(73:00)

33
Q

How much creatinine is produced every minute?

How much creatine is filtered every minute?

A

1.25 mg of creatinine produced every minute

1.25 mg of creatine filtered every minute.

34
Q

If you lose half your nephrons what will happen to blood creatinine level?

What will be the new creatinine level?

A

More creatinine is being produced (1.25 mg/min) than creatinine being filtered (0.625 mg/min). Blood creatinine level will increase.

2 mg/dL

35
Q

If you lose half your nephrons, how do you get excretion rate of creatinine back in balance with production rate of creatinine?

A

You will have to wait until plasma creatinine concentration is high enough to pack twice the amount of creatinine into half the original space. This way filtration rate of creatine will equal production rate of creatinine. (90:00)
