hyperosmolal state - 2 types
|
hyperglycemia
hypernatremia |
|
hyperglycemia
|
occurs in patients with DM
loss of water from cells loss of total body water - glycouria |
|
hypernatremia
|
high level of Na
|
|
hypoosmolal state
|
*to much H2O in cells
hyponatremia (low Na) |
|
water deficit - description
|
decrease volume of ECF & ICF
increase solute concentration ADH released causing some water conservation |
|
water deficit - etiologies
|
reduced intake
unusual losses (GI, diuretics, kidney disorders) |
|
water excess - description
|
expansion of ECF & ICF
decrease solute concentration reduced ADH |
|
water excess - etiologies
|
decreased excretion of water
excessive renal Na & water retention SIADH |
|
sodium homeostasis
|
predominant ECF cation
est osmotic pressure relationship |
|
hypernatremia
|
deficit of water rel to Na
-water loss thats not replaced -water loss exceding Na loss (fever, burns,diahrrea) -high NaCl ingestion |
|
hypervolemic hyponatremia
|
excess body water relative to Na
decr blood volume w/ decr renal perfusion caused by CHF, cirrhosis, nephrosis |
|
hypovolemic hyponatremia
|
total body depletion of Na caused by excessive use of diuretics, chronic renal disease, mineralocorticoid deficiency
|
|
mineralocorticoid
|
a class of steroids characterised by their similarity to aldosterone and their influence on salt and water metabolism
|
|
euvolemic hyponatremia
|
normal ECF volume commonly caused by SIADH
|
|
potassium homeostasis
|
body stores - 45-55mEq/kg
major IC cation involved in muscle contration, nerve impulse,enzymes,& cell membranes |
|
hyperkalemia
|
diminished excretion
increased K+ supply endocrine diseases metabolic acidosis cell lysis |
|
drugs that cause hyperkalemia
|
K-Dur, NSAIDs
|
|
hypokalemia
|
poor intake
reduced absorption increased loss (GI, renal, skin) licorise abuse |
|
drugs that cause hypokalemia
|
corticosteroids
amphotericin B |
|
calcium homeostasis
|
present in ECF
complexed to bicarb,protein bound, or ionized effect on cell membrane potential/permeability, muscle contraction |
|
parathyroid hormone
|
released in response to low ionized Ca
incr absorption from intestine & renal |
|
calcitonin
|
opposes PTH
from C cells of thyroid released in response to high Ca level inhibits osteoclasts (breaks down bones) |
|
hypercalcemia - etiologies
|
incr intake or absorption
endocrine disease neoplastic disorder (cancer) |
|
drugs that cause hypercalcemia
|
tums
lithium |
|
hypocalcemia - etiologies
|
decr intake or absorption
incr loss (vomiting, diahrrea) endocrine disease |
|
endocrine
|
glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream
|
|
drugs that cause hypocalcemia
|
glucocordicoids
loop diuretics |
|
magnesium homeostasis
|
2/3 free cation
excreted via kidney involved with enzymes that transfer phosphates alteration in Mg usually provokes alteration in Ca |
|
hypermagnesemia -etiologies
|
renal insufficiency
|
|
hypomagnesemia - etiologies
|
diminished absorption or intake
increased loss usually seen in alcoholics |
|
phosphorus homeostasis
|
80% in bones
integral in eneergy transfer & metabolism urinary buffer |
|
hypophospatemia - etiologies
|
incr renal exrcretion
catabolic states / tissue destruction IC shifting |
|
hyperphosphatemia - etiologies
|
decr renal excretion
shift from IC to EC incr intake of vit D or phosphate laundry detergent ingestion |
