Random calculations and other shit Flashcards
1
Q
Clearance vs. GFR
A
Clearance GFR = net secretion
Clearance = GFR = no net secretion or absorption
2
Q
GFR (equation)
A
Calculated by Clearance of inulin (inulin is filtered but not secreted or absorbed)
GFR = Cinulin x Vinulin/ Pinulin
Creatine clearance is approximation of GFR (slight over estimation due to secretion)
3
Q
Renal clearance (equation)
A
Cx= UxV/Px
