What is normal GFr
|
120 ml/min or 180 l/day.
|
|
Where is RBF directed?
|
More than 90% of renal blood flow
(RBF) is directed to the renal cortex and courses through glomeruli |
|
Ultrafiltrate
|
Water and electrolytes
|
|
PGC
|
glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure
Force promoting filtration! |
|
Pi-bs
|
Colloid Osmotic pressure in the bowmans capsule
Favors filtration |
|
Pt
|
Proximal tubule (bow mans space) hydrostatic pressure
Force opposing filtration |
|
Pi-Gc
|
colloid osmotic pressure in glomerular capillaries
Force opposing filtration |
|
What two factors mostly contribute to GFR (sngfr)w
|
balance between the hydrostatic pressure gradient, P (the predominant force driving filtration)
and glomerular capillary colloid osmotic pressure, Pi-GC. |
|
Capillary surface area under control of
|
Mesengial cells
|
|
Pressure in the glomerular capillary is how much of the systemic pressure
|
1/2 butnhigher than peripheral blood capillaries
|
|
Step down in pressure
|
change in the afferent arteriole pressure and the capillary pressure (approx. half)
|
|
Afferent arteriole affected by:
Efferent arteriole affected by: |
prostaglandins, NO
Angiotensin-2 |
|
NSAIDS do
|
impair prostaglandin synthesis so you block afferent vasodilation and prevent autoregulation
|
|
ACE-Inhibitors do
|
block constriction of efferent arterioles and prevent autoregulation
|
|
what charge does the basement membrane have
|
negative
|
|
is clearance better for a positive or negative ion
|
positive
|
|
filtered load = urinary excretion for which substance
|
inulin
filtered load: Cx X Px urinary excretion: Ux X V |
|
Inulin
|
freely filtered but not reabsorbed
|
|
PAH
|
freely filtered and secreted
(no PAH in renal venous blood) |
|
RPF=
|
Clearance of PAH
|
|
RBF=
|
RPF/ 1-Hct
|
|
GFR=
|
120 ml/min
|
|
RPF=
|
600 ml/min
|
|
Filtration Fraction
|
20%, 20% of renal blood flow is filtered
|
|
In heart failure what happens to GFR and RBF
|
GFR usually stays the same, RBF goes down so FF goes up
|
|
increase in colloid osmotic pressure (pi-gc) due to...
and leads to... |
high FF
increased reabsorption of sodium and water from the tubule |
|
Blocks to anionic charge
|
endothelial cells
|
|
True RPF is 10% higher than
|
effective RPF (Cpah estimates effective RPF)
|
|
when Cin > Cx there is a net
when Cx> Cin there is a net |
reabsoprtion
secretion |
|
RBF
|
RPF / 1-Hct
