pH, Endo, and Repro Phys Flashcards
What happens to PCO2 and pH when you increase ventilation?
PCO2 decreases
pH increases (more basic)
What happens to PCO2 and pH when you decrease ventilation?
PCO2 increases
pH decreases (more acidic)
what are the 3 ways that the renal system can contribute to long term changes to bicarbonate?
- reabsortion of filtered Bicarb (or not)
- production of “new” bicarb
- changes to net acid excretion (excreting more H+)
does the production of “new” bicarb increase or decrease during acidosis?
increases
does the production of “new” bicarb increase or decrease during alkalosis?
decreases

rules of acid base:
constant PCO2 - changes in [HCO3-] resricted to ??
PCO2 isobar
rules of acid base:
change in PCO2 - must be parallel to ??
Hb Buffer Line
Cortisol is respinsible for?
energy metabolism
hyper
overproduction of main effector hormone
hypo
underproduction of main effector hormone
primary disorder
imparied function is localized to the glans that’s producing the effector hormone
secondary disorder
problem is upstream of the gland (hypothalamus, pituitary…)
PTH stimulates activation of?
