|
what are the factors for aldosterone release?
|
angiotensin II and high K+
|
|
|
increased ketoacids in tubular fluid affect K+ how?
|
increase K+ tubular secretion (ketones are negatively charged, pulling K+ in)
|
|
|
where is ADH made?
|
hypothalamus/pituitary axis
|
|
|
what does an anion gap acidosis mean?
|
excess acids: lactic acid, ketoacids, toxic acid ingestion, renal failure
|
|
|
what is an anion gap?
|
[Na + K] - [HCO3 + Cl]
should be <12 |
|
|
what IV solution shifts fluid from ICF to ECF?
|
hypertonic saline
|
|
|
where does isotonic IV solution go?
|
ECF (for fluid depleted patients)
|
|
|
what is glucose IV solution for?
|
water replacement (high osmolality patients)
|
|
|
what is a colloid infusion for?
|
shift fluid from interstitial fluid to intravascular
|
|
|
what is it called when HCO3<24?
|
metabolic acidosis
|
|
|
what is it called when HCO3>24?
|
metabolic alkylosis
|
|
|
what is it called when CO2<40?
|
respiratory alkylosis
|
|
|
what is it called when CO2>40?
|
respiratory acidosis
|
|
|
what is an anion gap?
what is it's normal value? |
positive charges - negative charges
[Na + K]-[HCO3 + Cl] ~12 |
|
|
what does an elevated anion gap mean?
|
extra (unmeasureable) acids
|
|
|
what is an osmolar gap?
|
measured - calculated osmolality
2Na + glucose + urea + EtOH |
|
|
what does an elevated osmolar gap mean?
|
presence of uncharged osmols (usually toxic alcohols)
|
|
|
what are titratable acids?
|
phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid
|
|
|
what are two kinds of urinary buffers that help to excrete acid?
|
titratable acids
ammonium |
|
|
what is aldosterone's action on K?
|
as it reabsorbs Na, K is excreted
|
|
|
what is insulin's action on K?
|
it stimulates uptake from ECF to ICF
|
|
|
what is effect of beta-antagonists on K?
|
keep K in ECF
|
|
|
what is effect of beta-agonists on K?
|
same as insulin
shift K from ECF to ICF |
