Loop
What is the main goal of diuretics?
Diverse the body get rid of extra fluid
diuretics think dry inside
Uses for diuretics
Heart failure ( because the fluid is backing up)
Edema caused by heart failure
Hypertension cause by heart failure
Chronic kidney disease ( no where to excrete fluid also doesnβt take out extra potassium)
What do loop medicationβs end in
Mide or nide
Lacks flourmide
Loop meditations inhibit the reabsorption of what
Sodium and chloride na + cl-
(Sodium goes weβre water flows )
Taking out extra sodium will get rid of water
Loop causes what to be excreted
Potassium
K
Main side effect of Loop medicationβs
Hypokalaemia ( not enough potassium)
Because itβs potassium wasting medication
Where does loop diuretics take place in the kidneys
The loop of Henle
Ascending limbs
Loop diuretic drug effects ( everything goes?)
Down
Decrease fluid volume
Decrease blood pressure
Decrease, pulmonary, vascular resistance
Decrease, systemic, vascular resistance
Decreased central, venous pressure
Decreased left ventricle an end, diastolic pressure
(Aka lower pressure on blood vessels and lower blood pressure )
Thiazide ends in
Thiazide
Hydrochloride
Thiazide inhibits tubular reabsptrion of
Na
Cl
K
What 3 things are excreted plus water at a lower amount with Thiazide
NA
H2O
Cl
K ( lesser)
Potassium, sparing, diuretics hold onto what
Potassium
Name for potassium sparing diuretic
Spironolactone
S for sparing
Potassium sparing blocks what
Aldosterone
What does aldostrone do?
Retain salt or sodium and H2O
And potassium sparing hormones, excrete this
But not (((((potassium )))))
Monitor, potassium, sparing, diuretics for
Hyperkalaemia
Too much potassium
Foods high in potassium
Bananas
Oranges
Dates
Raisins
Plums
Vegetable
Potato
Meat and fish
Who should eat potassium, rich foods?
Everyone taking diuretics, except case k agents
What to osmotic diuretics do
Increases the thickness of filtration in the kidneys, so water canβt be reabsorbed into the bloodstream
Pause fluid into the two bills and inhibits water solution reabsorption
Most common ostmotic diarrhetic
Mannitol
Osmotic does what oedema and what to urine
Decreases edema while increasing urine
Osmotic must be infused by
A iv
