Renal Flashcards
Formula for clearance
C=(UxV)/P
Clearance
Using concentration
Urine flow rate
Plasma concentration
GFR
Clearance PAH
Filtration fraction
GFR/eRPF
Effective renal blood flow=effective plasma flow/fraction of blood that is plasma
Usually FF
.17-.21
Early stages of DM are associated with what
Glomerular hypertension/hyperfiltration. Give ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers
What is the clearance of a solute
Ml/min plasma from which all of solute x has been removed
To calculate GFR we use 24 hour infusion of insulin. Why
Freely filtered
Not reabsorbed
Not secreted
Not endogenous molecule satisfies those conditions
How calculate true GFR
Insulin clearance
What must happen for clearance to exceed GFR
Tubular secretion
What endogenous chemical clearance equals the effective renal plasma flow
PAH (p-aminohippurate)
How calculate effective renal blood flow (RBF)
ERPF/fraction of blood that is plasma
?????
Fraction of blood that is plasma=1-hematocrit
Filtration fraction
True GFR(inulin clearance)/EPRF (PAH clearance)
T1/2
(.693 Vd)/clearance
Vd =apparent volume of distribution for the solute (I-iothalamate) freely filtered and not reabsorbed but has tubular secretion
Vd and T1/2 then allows the clearance rate to be calculated
Creatinine
Freely filtered, not reabsorbed but some secretion
Error in GFR from creatine
Creatinine clearance-inulin/inulin clearance ???
Why does error increase as GFR increases
As DFR falls the fraction of the total mass of creatinine ending in the urine decreases and more Plasma Cr
Creatine can be used to calculate GFR, but what’s thie issue with old people
Produce less creatine due to a decline in muscle mass—-so can remain normal despite significant decline in renal function
Cockcroft galt forma for creatine clearance (ml/min)
((140-age)x(wt(kg))/ serum creatinine (mg/dL)x72) (x.85 for females)

Driven by the transepithelial gradient generated by Na K 2Cl cotransporter
10% of Mg is reabsorbed in DCT. How
Via TRPM6 channels
Why is Mg absorption unique
PCT not major site of reabsorption
Describe Mg reabsorption in DCT
Mg concentration same inside and outside, so electrical potential is primary driver of cellular Mg influx, intracellular shuttling is not well understood
Hormonal regulation is uncertain and thought to be indirect, EGF is only hormone identified thus far
_% of ICU patients have hypomagnesemia
60
What causes hypomagnesia in ICU patients
Decreased nutrition, diuretics, decreased albumin, aminoglycosides, decreased reabsorption (PPI)
Common causes of Mg defiency
Alcoholism, malabsorption, parenteral nutrition, PPI, familial hypomagnesia with secondary hypocalcemia
Increased losses
Redistribution -hungry bone syndrome
Clinical signs of hypomagnesia
Neuromuscular manifestations(weak, tremor, seizures, tetany, positive chvostek and trousseau (but think Ca first), nystagmus
CVD-T wave changes, U waves, prolonged QT and QU, repolarized alternans, premature ventricular contractions, v fib, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, enhanced digitalis toxicity)
Metabolic-hypoK and Ca
Treat hypomagnesia
Oral or IV Mg
When is hypermagnesia seen
End stage renal disease
Massive intake..epsom salt
Magnesium infusion..administration to limit neuromuscular excitability in pregnant women with pre-ecclampsia/ecclampsia
Clinical signs of hypermagnesemia
<3.6 asymptomatic
- 8-7.2-nauseas flushing headache
- 2 to 12 somnolence, hypoca, absent DTR, hypotension, bradycardia
> 12 -muscle paralysis-flaccid
Treat hypermagnesemia
Normal renal function-stop administration and wait and/or add loop or thiazide diuretic
Reduced renal function -stop administration and wait and/or add loop thiazide diuretic then ADD SALINE
End stage kidney disease-dialysis
With hypertension why do expel feel better when not taking meds
Side effects
Risk of HTN
Family history Age Males Black Diabetes
Primary HTN
92%, no cause found, chronic and progressice, use drugs that lower BP but DONT treat underlying cause
Low renin
Normal renin
High renin
Secondary HTN
Primary cause identified, less, can be cured by treating cause
Causes of secondary HTN
Chronic kidney disease Renovascular OC Coarctation Primary aldosteronism Cushing
Calculate arterial pressure

Sympathetic baroreceptor reflex
Reflex circuit keeps arterial pressure at present level on a second by second basis
How does the sympathetic baroreceptor reflex “sense”
Stretch receptors located in the carotid sinus and aortic arch
What happens when sympathic baroreceptor reflex is opposed
Attempts to reduce arterial reassure with drugs
Innervated the heart and travel along the blood vessels, forming multiple synapses such that the nerves resemble a string of beads
A1 adrenergic receptor
On bc to cause vasoconstriction to maintain venous return with changes in posture
A2 adrenergic receptors
Act both in the brain and in the periphery in a presynaptic receptors act in both the brain and in their periphery in a presympathetic tone
