3 principal regulators of serum K+
|
Insulin
Epinephrine Aldosterone |
|
Hyperkalemia and EKG
|
1. High T wave
2. Prolonged PR, depressed ST 3. IV block 4. Vfib |
|
Principal cell
|
Cell in CCT
Na/K control (reg by ald) |
|
Na channel blockers
|
"Amiloride
Triamterene Trimethoprim Pentamidine" |
|
Pseudohypoaldosteronism
(and types) |
"True Aldosterone Resistance
Type IA Dominant - defect in Mineralocorticoid receptor (Milder) Type IB Recessive - defect in ENaCl (Severe) Type II Dominant - unknown (defective chlorine shunt)" |
|
Bartter's vs Gitelmans
|
"BOTH: Hypokalemia, metabolic alkalosis, normal/low BP, Inc renin, res to Ang II
Bartter's (Defect in TAL)- Normal or in Ca2+, Normal to low Mg2+ Gitelman's (na/cl coT in DCT) - Low ser Mg, low urine Ca" |
|
K+ in mineral vs organic acidosis
|
"Mineral: Increase K+ because anions are held extracellularly (pulling K+ out)
Organic: No change. Organic anions are taken into cell" |
|
Types of Bartter's
|
"Type I - NKCC2 - Na/2Cl/K CoT
Type II - ROMK - K passive Type III - CIC_Kb - Cl passive" |

|
Henderson-Hasselbach
|
pH = 6.1 + log[HCO3-]/(.03Pco2)
|
|
Normal anion gap
|
"12-14 w/ potassium
6-10 w/o potassium" |
|
Causes of high anion gap Acidosis
|
"Methanol
Uremia Diabetic ketoacidosis Toluene Infection Lactic Acidosis Ethylene glycol Salicylates" |
|
"Causes of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis
(extrarenal)" |
HCl generating compounds
-NH4Cl, HCl, Larginine, Llysine, Cl gas, Hyperalimentation GI HCO3 losses -Diarrhea, Ileus, Pancreatic/Biliary fistula, laxatives |
|
Net Acid Excretion
|
"NAE = (NH4+ + TA) - HCO3
TA = titrable acid" |
|
RTA's
(renal tubular acidosis) |
"Type I - Distal - Decreased H+ (NH4) excretion --> acidosis (Alkaline urine)
Type II - Proximal - HCO3 wasting esp above threshold Type III - Distal w/ HCO3 waste" |
