Renal 8 Flashcards
All things that stimulate AVP release also stimulate thirst, what is the exception
Dry mouth stimulates thirst
What are 2 physiological changes that influence sodium appetite
Increase aldosterone
Increase ANG II
What other behaviours can prevent dehydration
Avoidance behaviours
Ex) midday nap to avoid hottest part of day
What does the CV system respond to
Changes in blood volume and pressure
What does the renal system respond to
Changes in blood volume and/or osmolarity
What do behavioural mechanisms respond to
Osmolarity and blood volume
May occur with eating salty food and drinking liquids at the same (=ingestion of hypertonic saline)
Increase volume and increase osmolarity
Need to excrete the solid and liquid to match what was taken in
If salt and water is ingested in equivalent to isotonic solution (water=salt)
Increase volume, no change in osmolarity
Drinking pure water without ingesting solute
Increase volume and decrease osmolarity
- kidneys cannot excrete pure water so some solute lost
- need behavioural mechanisms to bring salt in
Eating salt without drinking water
No volume change, increase in osmolarity
- increases ECF osmolarity shifting water from cells to ECF
- thirst and kidneys produce concentrated urine
Water and solutes lost in sweat but only water replace
No change volume, decrease in osmolarity
- can lead to hypokalemia
- sports drinks can replace both
Dehydration due to heavy exercise or diarrhea
Decrease volume and increase osmolarity
- can lead to cell dysfunction
- increase water intake
Decrease volume and no change in osmolarity
Hemorrhage, need blood transfusion or isotonic solution
Decrease volume and osmolarity
Incomplete compensation for dehydration
What does severe dehydration result in
Loss of ECF volume, decrease BP, increase osmolarity
What 3 compensatory mechanisms restore dehydration factors
- Conserving fluid
- Trigger CV reflexes to increase BP
- Stimulate thirst
During severe dehydration decrease ECF volume would signal what
Increase aldosterone release but also increased osmolarity inhibits this
Osmolarity reigns and aldosterone not secreted
What signals CVCC during dehydration
Carotid and aortic baroreceptors
