Q

If you have low plasma volume, how does ADH know to be released?

A

Venous, atrial and arterial low pressure will trigger reflexes mediated by cardiovascular baroreceptors to let the brain know to release ADH

Q

Once you have an increase in ADH what happens to the body?

A

Q

If you consume 1 liter of isotonic saline what will happen?

A

Q

When you have excess sodium consumption what happens?

A

your sodium plasma concentration increase which increases your plasma osmolarity which increases your ADH and thirst and water reabsorption as well as shifts fluid from IC to EC compartments and then your ECF volume increases

26
Q

Increase in ACTH
decrease in Plasma Na

27
Q

What will hypoaldosteronemia cause?

A

Adrenal insufficiency (addison’s disease)
acidosis
hyperkalemia
hypotensin (salt wasting)

28
Q

What will hyperaldosteronemia cause?

A

Alkalosis
Hypokalemia
Hypertension (usually not over volume expansion)

29
Q

What is the disease associated with adrenal insufficiency?

A

addison’s disease

30
Q

If you have decreased salt plasma and increased potassium and hydrogen in plasma what is going on?

A

you have adrenal insufficiency so addison’s disease

31
Q

If you have problems with your regulation of Na K transport in the distal renal tubule what is most likely the culprit?

A

you have aldosterone problems and will have decreased plasma salt and increase potassium plasma concentration

32
Q

What is primary hyperaldosteronemia?

A

when you directly increase your amount of aldosterone such as an adrenal tumor

33
Q

If you have primary hyperaldosteronemia what happens?

A

you will have increased aldosterone which will lead to hypertension and subsequent reduction in renin release

34
Q

What is secondary hyperaldosteronemia?

A

When decreased pressure or volume causes an increase in aldosterone (i.e like renal artery stenosis)

35
Q

What happens if you have secondary hyperaldosteronemia?

A

you will have decreased pressure which will increase renin release and increase ang II and increase aldosterone

36
Q

If a patient has primary hyperaldosteronemia (a tumor making increased aldosterone) what will be common symptoms associated with it?

A

hypokalemia
metabolic alkalosis
hypertension
diminished plasma renin activity

37
Q

Does renin regulation come before or after increases in adolsterone in primary hyperaldosteronemia?

A

after

38
Q

Does renin regulation come before or after increases in adolsterone in secondary hyperaldosteronemia?

A

before

39
Q

What stimulates aldosterone release and causes a direct increase in proximal Na reabsorption?

51
Q

(blank) handling in the kidneys is predominantly regulated by arterial baroreceptors to maintain effective circulating volume (ECV) i.e. that part of the extracellular fluid that is in the arterial system and thus is available for perfusing tissues.

A

sodium

52
Q

sodium handling in the kidney is predominantly regulated by (blank)

A

arterial baroreceptors

53
Q

Explain what happens to the body when a person undergoes CHF?

A

decrease in cardiac output-> shift of blood volume from arterial to venous side-> baroreceptors sense decrease in ECV-> save sodium-> increase in plasma osmolality-> increase ADH-> save water-> Increase EDEMA!

54
Q

How do you maintain sodium balance with progressive nephron loss?

A

intake has to equal outflow. therefore if you have decrease filtered load you must have increased fractional excretion rate to maintain na excretion rate

55
Q

sodium consumption and excretion remain in balance with progressive nephron loss due to an increase in (blank).

A

fractional excretion.

56
Q

If you have 10 nephrons and then only 5 what will happen to your filtered load? What will happen to your fraction excretion? What will happen to your excretion rate?

A

it will decrease
it will increase
it will be maintained

57
Q
If you decrease your nephrons what will happen to the following:
plasma HCO3
Plasma pH
Plasma Creatinine
Plasma BUN
Posm
Max Uosm
Min Uosm
A
hco3-decrease
ph, decreases
Creatinine Increases!!
BUN Increases!!
Posm increases!!
max decreases
min increases
58
Q

creatinine formation and excretion remain in balance with loss of nephrons due to an increase in (blank).

A

plasma creatinine

59
Q

Creatinine’s filtered load will equal its (blank) regardless of nephron amount.

60
Q

If you have reduced GFR for creatinine what will happen?

(blank) release is stimulated by reduced tissue oxygenation

A

erythropoietin

62
Q

What causes an increase in need for tissue oxygenation?

A
