17
Q

What are the steps in the RAAS?

A

Decreased blood pressure or sodium –>
Renin secretion from kidney –>
Renin converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I –>
ACE in lungs converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II –>
Angiotensin II stimulates adrenal cortex to release aldosterone –>
Aldosterone acts on kidneys to increase sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion.

18
Q

What initiates renin release and activates the RAAS system? (i.e.: what is the stimulus?)

A

decreased blood pressure and decrease sodium in the body (at the kidneys)

19
Q

what are the biochemical effects of ANP

A

– Blocks release of ADH
– Blocks release of aldosterone
– Blocks Na + reabsorption in kidneys
– Reduces sympathetic cardiac drive: decreases arterial BP

20
Q

What happens to BP and BV during the onset of exercise? What is the mechanism?

A

NET DECREASE. BP & BV drop as you start sweating (lose fluid and electrolytes). Metabolites rise, osmolality and osmotic pressure increase in RBCs and water in interstitial spaces like the blood vessels decrease. This stimulates osmolreceptors in the brain which begin a compensatory mechanism

21
Q

What happens to BP and BV during exercise, after onset? What is the mechanism?

A

NET INCREASE. To compensate for a decrease in BP and BV, cardiac output increase and vasoconstriction occur. This is due to increases in ADH and activation of the RAAS system as well as a decrease of ANP secretion

22
Q

What happens to BP and BV during prolonged exercise in the absence of rehydration? What are the consequences?

A

BP and BV slowly decrease due to loss of fluids and electrolytes in sweat and for metabolic processes. Conseq.: decreased BV, compramised cardiac output and blood pressure.

23
Q

Name some physiological responces to exercise

A

• Increase sodium reabsorption
• Increase water reabsorption
• Decrease urine output
• Increase plasma volume

24
Q

What are some of the effects of repeated days of activity on the renal system?

A

• Increased release of fluid balance hormones
• Increased plasma volume

25
Q

How would you prevent dehydration pre-exercise and ensure re-hydration post exercise?

A

PRE • Ensure at least euhydration pre-exercise
POST • Weigh before & after exercise
– Consume fluid to volume lost plus 25%
• Ensure urine colour returns to pale yellow

26
Q

When would you especially need to hydrate during exercise?

A

Hydrate during exercise if:
– Long duration
– High ambient temperature
– High humidity

27
Q

If you need to rehydrate quickly during exercise, what is it best to consume?

A

• Consume a cool sports drink if rate of rehydration is important (water and electrolytes)
– Hypotonic (relative to blood) and w/o glucose as this will act against the osmolality of solutes, drawing water out of the bloodstream

28
Q

What is hyponaturemia and when might it occur?

A

Low salt/water intoxication - Serum Na < 136 meq/L (150 normal), prolonged sweating & excess plain water intake

29
Q

What are some symptoms of hyponaturemia?

A

Mild symptoms - Headache, confusion, nausea, cramps
Severe symptoms - Seizures, coma, pulmonary oedema, death

30
Q

Who is most at risk of hyponaturemia?

A

Ultra-endurance athletes, people less accustomed to prolonged exercise, Consume a low salt diet, diauretic medications, large quanities of plain water

31
Q

What is the prevention of hyponatremia

A

No more than 1 L plain water per hour during or after exercise
• Add some sodium & glucose to drinks
• Sprinkle salt on food in days prior to (and following) exposure

32
Q

What are the main risk-factors of kidney disease?

A

Diabeties and hypertension

33
Q

What can cause acute kidney injury?

A

Pre and Intra-Renal: factors that reduce blood flow to kidneys like dehydration, blood loss, lower BP, heart failure. Also: drugs (nephrotoxicity), acute tubular necrosis. Post-renal causes: kidneys stones, tumors, enlarged prostate

34
Q

What can cause Chronic Kidney Disease?

A

Diabeties, high blood pressure (hypertension), Glomerulonephritis, Polycystic Kidney Disease, prolonged obstruction of the urinary tract, repeat kidney infection

35
Q

What happens to aerobic capacities in people with kidney disease

A

Very low aerobic capacities (VO 2max)

36
Q

What sorts of tests are relevant with people with kidney disease?

A

Fitness tests may use lower level activities:
– ADLS
– Stair climbing
– 6 min walk test

37
Q

What are the considerations of exercise testing for people at: State 1-4 and Stage 5 kidney disease?

A

• Stages 1-4 – usual considerations
• Transplant - usual considerations
• Stage 5 – requires medical supervision
• Hemodialysis – test on non-dialysis days
• Peritoneal – test when no fluid in abdomen

38
Q

What sorts of strength tests are relevant with people with kidney disease?

A

• 3RM or more (not 1RM)
• Isokinetic – slower velocities (60-180 deg/s)
• Sit to stands

39
Q

What are the standard considerations in aerobic training recommendations for people with kidney disease?

A

– Low-mod intensity activities (walk, swim, cycle)
• 40-60% max, then progress if can
– As many days as possible
– RPE 11-13 (HR is poor indicator)
• Non-dialysis days = RPE 11-16
– Begin with intermittent (interval) activity
– Progress to continuous activity
– Aim for 30-45 min continuous
• Longer if overweight/obese

40
Q

What are the standard considerations in anaerobic training recommendations for people with kidney disease?

A

Strength training
– Aim to increase or maintain muscle mass
– 1 set of 10-15 reps to fatigue
– 8-12 exercises targeting major muscle groups
– 2 x week (non-consecutive days)
– Motivation often difficult

41
Q

What should be considered regarding the timing of exercise around dialysis (pre-, during-, post-, and non-dialysis days)?

A

• Pre dialysis:
– Fluid load problems (e.g., breathlessness)
• Post dialysis: (issue is fluid loss)
– Don’t train immediately post dialysis
• During dialysis:
– Possible during first 2 hours of dialysis e.g., cycling
• Non-dialysis days:
– Exercise usually better tolerated
