PHYS 5 renal control of Acid-base balance Flashcards
why care about pH?
alter what?
metabolic acid sources?
elimination via?
how much of a change in H does it take to halve H+ concentration?
body buffer systems
instantaneous ones?
minutes-hours?
hours?
hours-days?
what happens at the pK point?
CO2 is transported as what mainly?
Hb?
plasma proteins?
ICF and ECF in acidemia vs alkalemia
Henderson-Hasselbalch equation
what is the formula?
when it comes to the body what numbers are used in what places? what variables are still there?
what log ratio would mean you always get a normal pH?
ventilatory rate effect on pH
what would the graph (curve) look like?
what is the reason?
renal reabsorption of bicarbonate
mostly happens where?
where else?
how much total?
reabsorption of filtered bicarbonate in proximal tubules?
how across apical side?
basal?
Primary causes of increased H+ secretion
secondary?
Hypokalemia (why does it increase acid secretion?)
decreased H+ secretion? primary secondary?
Hyperkalemia?
Phosphate buffering of secreted hydrogen ions?
this regenerates what?
production, transport, and excretion of ammonia by nephron
start with what?
end with what?
what transporter where?
alpha and beta-intercalated cells
secretes what? reabsorbs what?
“new” bicarbonate is generated how?
