c. 250-300
a. 280-295
osmolality will _____with overhydration and _____with dehydration
a. increase, decrease
b. decrease, increase
c. increase, stay the same
b. decrease with overhydration and increase with dehydration
Hypernatremia, hyperglycemia, ketosis, dehydration, diabetes insipidus will have what effect on osmolality
increase
SIADH with have what effect on osmolality
decrease
SIADH cause a ______ of serum sodium and a ______ in urine sodium
Decrease in serum and an increase in urine sodium.
You lose all of the sodium through urine.
**hyponatremia
Diabetes Insipidus causes hypo or hypernatremia?
Hypernatremia.
You have a patient that has an increased thrist as well as urinated ALOT of dilute urine. You draw their blood and they are hypernatremic. ______ is likely the cause
a. Diabetes insipidus
b. SIADH
c. overhydration
a. diabetes insipidus
_____ _____ is a good way to test the ability of the kidney to concentrate urine
urine osmolality
Urine osmolality normal range
50-1200
match the disease with the correct effect on urine osmolality (Increase or decrease)
SIADH
Diabetes insipidus
SIADH–> increase urine osmolality (decrease serum osmolality)
Diabetes insipidus –> decrease urine osmolality (increased serum osmolality)
CHF will cause a _______ urine osmolality
increased
Two types of hyponatremia
sodium depletion - free water loss
dilutional - water intake greater than water output - renal failure
