1. 120-139 and 80-89
2. >130 or >80
Essential htn affects what percentage of htn pts?
What diseases cause secondary htn?
1. 90-95%- ppl think this is due to disregulation of RAAS and salt probs
2. renal artery stenosis, pheochromocytoma, primary hyperaldosteronism, coarctation of the aorta
BP is proportional to ____ and is inversely proprtional to ____. Where is the largest site of systemic vasc resistance? What is the major site of capacitance?
1. blood flow
2. systemic vascular resistance
3. pre cap arterioles
4. post cap venules
CO ___ with increasing HR and with increasing stroke volume. Stroke volume increases when there is increased ___ return which increases ventricular filling pressure.
1. increases
2. venous
Name factors that affect vascular resistance.
1. length and diameter of vessel
- MOST imp is vessel diameter of small arterioles
- vascular tone is degree of constriction relative to maximally dilated state-- has intrinsic and extrinsic influences-- intrinsic is myogenic and endothelial factors like NO and endothelin, extrinsic are nervous syst, RAAS, and ANP

2. vascular network org- parallel versus in series
3. physical characteristics of blood--i.e. viscosity
4. extravascular mechanical forces-- muscle contraction
ANS (sympathetic and parasympathetic) controlled by _____. What part of brain is ANS controller in? The ___ receives input from systemic and central receptors-- name some sites of input
1. medulla
2. NTS
3. baroreceptors and hypothalamus
The NTS has what type of effect on the sympathetic nervous system?
Inhibitory
Where are sympathetic adrenergic nerves along vascularity? What vessels receive no innervation? Vasoconstriction is mediated by what type of adrenoreceptors?
- In adventitia of blood vessels
- capillaries
- alpha receptors
Baroreceptors are part of a reflex arc with autonomic ganglia which then will send out _____ in response to low bp.
1. sympathetic stimulation
NE has main effect at ____ receptors. Epi at higher concentrations bind to _____ and ____ receptors and produce vasoconstriction. Muscarinic innervation in which vessels so that vasodilation can occur?
1. alpha 1
2. alpha 1 and 2-- EPI
3. coronary vessels-- Ach mediated so can prevent ischemia
What substance is the major determinant of EC vol? The primary derangement in htn is inability of kidney to regulate sodium balance so that ___ xs is maintained. In pts with essential htn have ___ alteration in ability to handle sodium
1. NaCl
2. sodium xs
3. renal- theory that essential htn due to inherited inability to excrete sodium
How is essential htn inherited? Which proteins are involved? Is there an association of obesity w/ htn? Insulin increases or decreases sodium reabsorption as well as higher sympathetic activity?
1. multiple alleles
2. sodium transporter function
3. yes
4. increases sodium reabsorption
What is pressure natriuresis?
When bp increases there is more renal bp which then causes more natriuresis and diuresis b/c higher GFR. When blood vol decreases then excretion becomes normal.
How much sodium is resorbed in the PCT, in loop at TAL, in DCT, and how much at collecting duct?
1. PCT- 65-70%-- CA inhibitors
2. Loop TAL- 25%-- loop diuretics
3. DCT- 5%-- thiazides= Ca+2 sparing
4. collecting duct-- 1-2%- K+ sparing diuretics including aldosterone antagonists and ADH antagonists
What is the main channel effected by the CA inhibitors? Where is this in the nephron?
1. Na/H+ exchanger- the gradient is lost b/c with CA, H+ (and HCO3-)not made into CO2 leading to a bunch of H+ around so NA/H exchanger has no driving force and Na+ is NOT resorbed- is more commonly used for glaucoma not as a diuretic
2. in PCT
In loop of henle water is resorbed so that more concentrated urine can be formed. Which transporter do loop diuretics work?
Loop diuretics inhibit the NA/K/2Cl- cotransporter in Thick AL (TAL)-- resorption. Also creates positive potential in lumen for Ca+2 and Mg+2 interepithelial resorption
In the DCT which diuretics work and on what channel?
Thiazide diuretics inhibit resorption via the Na+/Cl- cotransporter. Advantage of thiazide diuretics is little chance of downstream resorption
Where does aldosterone work, what channel does it work on? What is MOA of diuretics at this point? What other type of diuretic could work at collecting duct?
1. In the distal segment of DCT
2. Aldosterone will cause incerased resorption of Na+ and more excretion of K+ and H+
3. aldosterone antagonists will inhibit on the Na+/K+-H+antiporter, so Na+ lost and K+ and H+ will be saved
4. ADH blockers-lithium
After 6-8 wks on diuretics what happens to CO? What will happen to the PVR?
1. bodys sodium stores decrease
2. body vol may decrease
3, BUT THEN CO will revert to normal and peripheral vsc resistance will decline
4. Na contribs to vasc resistance by increasing vessel stiffness and neural activity
Acetazolamide, methazolamide, sulfanilamide, and dichlorophenamide--Class, MOA, PK
Class: CA Inhibitors
MOA: CA inhibitors will inhibit CA in PCT and stop Na/H+ exchanger
PK: Increases pH of urine, secreted by renal blood flow into PCT area
Acetozolamide, methazolamide, dichlorphenamide- Use, Tox, CI
Use: CA inhibitors are not used as diuretics that much instead used for glaucoma, respiring in mountains- b/c this causes resp alkalosis, metabolic alkalosis (b/c H+ is saved- Na/H+ exchanger is blocked and Na+ lost and H+ saved)
Tox: metabolic acidosis, renal stones b/c calcium stones are insoluble in alkaline pH, K+ wasting, allergy to sulfas- rash
Furosemide, bumentanide and torsedmide, and ethacrynic acid- Class, MOA, PK
Class: Loop diuretics
MOA: Inhibits Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter at the TAL of the loop. Stimulates renin release DIRECTLY via macula densa, increases systemic venous capacitance
PK: must get into urine to work (organic acid secretion- competes with uric acid secretion), bound to plasma proteins, NSAIDS and probenicid compete for same site, induces renal PG synth
Furosemide, bumentanide, and torsemide and ethacrynic acid- Use, Tox, CI
Use: Edema (ACUTE), htn (esp if reduced renal function), hypercalcemia treatment, and acute renal failure (helps to prevent oliguria in renal failure)
Tox: OTOTOXICITY, ion disregulation-- hypocalcemia, hypomagnesimia, HYPERuricemia. Increas LDL and decrease HDL. Allergic rxn b/c are sulfa drugs (except ethacrynic acid)
CI: osteoporosis
Hydrochlorothiazide, metolazone, chlorothiazide, indapamide- Class, MOA, PK
Class: Thiazide diuretics
MOA: Inhibits Na/Cl symport in DCT, this is last place to make dilute urine. Enhances Ca+2 reabsorption in PCT and DCT. Mg+2 excretion increased
PK: secreted by organic ACID transport sys in prox tubule (uric acid--gout), NSAIDs, probenicid competition
Hydrochlorothiazide, metolaxone, chlorothiazide, and indapamide- Use, Tox, CI
Use: Htn, edema, osteoporosis, decreases stone formation, nephrogenic diabetes insipidius (helps decrease Aqp load)
Tox: decrease glucose tolerance, increase LDL, hyponatremia, allergic rxns (ass with sulfas), rare weakness, fatigue, and impotence
Chlorothiazide- special b/c
ONLY IV THIAZIDE diuretic
indapamide special b/c
biliary excretion so shouldnt use with liver failure
Metolazone special thiazide diuretic b/c
still effective at lower GFR
Spironolactone, eplerenone- Class, MOA, Pk
Class: aldosterone antagonists
MOA: block ald receptors in CD, inhibit Na+/K+/H+ anti port which is what aldosterone regulate- more Na+ excreted and less H+ and K+ excreted- which is why aldosterone antagonists are K+ sparing
PK: secreted by organic BASE transport sys in proximal tubule-- does NOT interfere with probenecid
Spironolactone, eplerenone- Use, Tox, CI
Use: combined with other diuretics to prevent hypokalemia, if hyperaldosteronism, DOC for cirrhosis pts
Tox: life threatening hyperkalemia, met acidosis in cirrhotic pts b/c less H+ excretn, steroid symptoms- gynecomastia, impotence, decreased libido, hirsutism, and menstral irregularities
CI: renal failure, hyperkalemia, NEVER use with OTHER K+ sparing diuretics OR ACE INHIBITORS!
Lithium- MOA, Class
- ADH antagonist, inhibits action of ADH by reducing formation of cAMP in response to ADH
Mannitol, Glycerin- Class, MOA, Tox, Use
Use: Cerebral edema and glaucoma by inducing water to leave cells
Class: osmotic diuretics
MOA: freely filtered at glomerulus w/o resorption--increases osmolality of plasma and tubular fluid, causes water retention in proxc tubules and descending limb (where water is freely filtered)
Amiloride and Triamterene- Class, MOA, PK,
Class: K+ sparing diuretic, work at principal cells of distal part of DCT and collecting duct
MOA: block Na+/K+ antiporter so that Na+ is excreted more and K+ is saved more
PK: secreted by organic base secretory mech
Tox: life threatening hyperkalemia
Use: in COMBO with other diuretics, CF, liddles syndrome
