Define Edema
palpable swelling due to expansion of interstitial fluid volume
Which is not a mechanism of Edema

a) Decreased Capillary Pressr
b) Decreased Capillary Colloidal Osmotic Prssr
c) Increased Capillary Permeability
d) Increased Hydrostatic Prssr
decreased capillary pressure
(capillary pressure = hydrostatic prssr/outward force therefore capillary prssr increases w edema)
T/F

an increase in oncotic pressure can cause edema
F

oncotic prssr hold water in BVs therefore a decrease in oncotic prssr will cause edema -
prssr is dependent on solute concentration, protein xu, and LV failure will decrease oncotic prssr
T/F varicose veins can cause edema
T- related to increase in hydrostatic pressure
Which is not a regulatory mechanism of water balance

a) ANP
b) Aldosterone
c) Renin-Angiotensin
d) All
ANP- Na+
Aldosterone - Na+, K+
List the regulatory mechanisms for water balance
thirst
renin-angiotensin
ADH/Vasopressin
Thirst develops when

a) increase in blood volume
b) osmoreceptors signal hypothalamus
c) 0.5% cellular water loss
d) any combo
osmoreceptors signal hypothal
0.5% cellular water loss
ADH is release when
extracellular osmolarity ____
blood volume ____
blood pressure ____
extra cell osmolarity increases
blood vol decreases
blood pressure decreases
T/F

increase BP will stimulate release of ADH
F

drop in BP/blood volume
T/F

only elderly require 100ml water/100 calories metabolized
F

all healthy ppl
how should water intake be adjusted for every 1 degree F of body temp

a) increase 10%
b) decrease 5%
c) increase 7%
d) no adjustment necessary
increase 7%
List all sources of water output
LU
KD
Skin
GI
T/F

edema can be related to water deficit
T

third space loss
List possible causes of water deficit
inadequate intake
xs GI, renal, skin losses
third space loss (edema)
Hypotension, increased HR, and sunken eyes are manifestations of

a) water xs
b) hypernatremia
c) hypokalemia
d) water xu
water xu
Hypotension, Dysrhythmias, and Thirst are manifestations of

a) Hyperkalemia
b) hypernatremia
c) hypokalemia
d) water xu
hypokalemia

also: polyuria, nausea/vomit, decreases smooth muscle contraction, decrease neuromuscular excitability

(dysrhythmia and hypotension also hypermagnesemia)
List the regulatory mechanisms of Na+
KD
renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (retain Na)
ANP- Na+ exretion
T/F

renin- angiotensin-aldosterone and ANP promote retention of Na+
F

ANP-> excrete Na+ in urine
Hyponatremia occurs when serum concentration is _____

Hypernatremia occurs when serum concentration is _____
hypo- <135 mEq/L

hyper- >148 mEq/L
individuals with Diabetes Insipidus are at risk of developing

a) hyponatremia
b) hypernatremia
c) hypokalemia
d) hyperkalemia
Hyper-natremia bc they do not produce ADH causing xs water loss which will increase serum Na+
list the regulatory mechanisms of K+
KD
aldosterone (elim k+)
insulin, epinephrine (decrease blood [k+] k+ enters cell
Which of the following regulates K+

a) hypothalamus
b) parathyroid
c) renin - angiotensin
d) insulin
insulin

(also epinephrine, aldosterone)
[K+] = 3.4 mEq/L

a) hyperkalemia
b) hypokalemia
c) normal
d) hypocalcemia
hypokalemia

3.5-5 mEq/L is normal range
which is not true about hypokalemia

a) can cause hypertension
b) caused by diet pills promoting urination
c) manifests with muscle fatigue
d) all are true
will not cause hypertension
(causes hypotension)
T/F

diarrhea can cause hypokalemia
true
a decrease in smooth muscle contractions occurs with

a) hypernatremia
b) hypokalemia
c) hypocalcemia
d) hyperphosphatemia
hypokalemia

(hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia have same manifestations)
Addisons disease can cause

a) hypernatremia
b) hyperkalemia
c) hypocalcemia
d) hyporphosphatemia
hyperkalemia
