Water Balance Flashcards
what receptor does ADH bind in the kidneys
what kind of R
where
V2
GPCR
collecting ducts and distal tubule
what are the ADH receptors and where are they
V1a - blood vessels: vasocronstriction
V2 - principle cells in renal collecting ducts: increased AQ2 on apical membrane
V3 (=V1b) - anterior pituitary: increases ACTH secretion
Regulatory of ADH secretion
Osmolality»_space;> Volume > Pressure
○ 1% increase in Osm = AVP release
○ 10-fold higher required for V/P
- Baroreceptors (carotid, aorta)
- atrial stretch receptors
- plasma tonicity
- Pain, nausea
○ Ex head injury
what inhibits ADH release
- GABA
- Dynorphin
- Somatostatin
effect of lithium on ADH?
inhibits action of AQ2 going on cell membrane after ADH binding to R
HyperCa effect on ADH?
inhibits action of AQ2 going on cell membrane after ADH binding to R
Plasma osmolality - what is it and how to calc
Plasma Osmolality = Osmotically active molecules in plasma
2 x [Na+] + 2 x [K+] + Glucose
SNS HypoNa
Seizures
Coma
Confusion/disorientation
Gait instability
Tremor
Asterixis
Myoclonus
Dysarthria
Muscle weakness
Cheyne-stokes respiration
HypoNa -first labs to rule out
HyperBG
HyperTG
Hyperproteinemia
HypoNa - volume status normal/high DDx
Urine Osm <200:
- Hypothyroidism
- GC def
- Nausea
- SIADH
- Carbamazepine, cyclophosphamide, vinblastine
Urine Osm >200:
- Psychogenic polydipsia
- Water intoxication
HypoNa - hypovolemic DDx
Urine Na >30
- Diuretic
- MC def
- Kidney disease (CKD, polycystic kidney)
- CSW
- Na administration
Urine <30
- non renal loss w XS water intake
- hypovolemic dehydration
- CHF
- Nephrotic syndrome
- Cirrhosis
- PPV
HypoNa - look at volume status and then what?
If hypovolemic -> look at urine SODIUM
– because it’s a water problem and that means you look at the Na
If eu-/hypervolemia -> look at urine OSM
what deficiencies decrease water excretion
Hypothyroidism and adrenal insufficiency
when present may mask diabetes insipidus
HyperNa - Ddx for hypovolemia
XS free water loss:
- Renal
– DI (C/N)
—osmotic diuresis w nonNa solute
— tubulopathy
- GI
—Diarrhea, emesis, stromal loss
- Derm
—burns
—sweating
- Premature neonates
- Pulmonary
—tachypnea
—mech vent
- AVP antagonist (captains)
Inadequate free water intake:
- inability to BF
- inadequate IVF in very sick kids
- neurologically impaired children w inability to communicate
- adipsia
HyperNa - Ddx for N/hi volume status
Na overload (usually w impaired/immature renal fn)
- Infants concentrated formula
- Infusion hypertonic saline
- Salt poisoning (munchausen by proxy)
Ddx polyuria
- Central DI
–congenital, LCH, germinoma, autoimmune hypophysitis - Congenital nephrogenic DI
- Pregnancy induced DI
- Hypercalcemia
- Diuretic use
- Glucocorticoid use
- Diabetes mellitus
- Primary polydipsia
- HyperCa
- HypoK
- Fluid overload (ex post op)
- Polyuric phase of renal failure or AKI/ATN
- Cerebral salt wasting
- UTI
- Mannitol
- Infiltrative renal diseases (e.g. histiocytosis)
- Low sodium intake (diminished tonicity of renal medullary interstitium and NDI)
- Decreased protein intake (diminished tonicity of renal medullary interstitium and NDI)
- Sickle cell nephropathy
- Lithium
