Potassium bicarbonate

systems that help control our blood pH which help in sudden shifts towards acidity or alkalinity. Two of the important buffer systems include the carbonic acid buffer system where a weak acid is formed from carbon dioxide dissolved in blood and the bicarbonate ion buffer system that corresponds with a weak…

Amlodipine (Norvasc): This drug blocks calcium from entering the muscles in your arteries and in your heart. Calcium helps muscles contract, so by blocking this it helps the muscles of your arteries relax allowing them to open up more. Having more space reduces resistance of blood flow making it easier for the blood to flow. It also relaxes the arteries that go to your heart reducing resistance, increasing the blood flow to your heart. Having less resistance then reduces your blood pressure…

Glomerular filtration is the physical method the kidney uses to sort what should be excreted from what should be kept in the bloodstream. In the first part of the process, a membrane called the filtrate membrane filters out red blood cells, large proteins, and other large plasma solutes. For example, albumin is filtered out at this point, with only a tiny amount remaining in the subsequent glomerular filtrate. Because the afferent arteriole to the glomerulus is much larger than its efferent…

Mr. ABC came in to the emergency department (ED) with a chief complaint of left sided chest pain with giddiness and associated with diaphoresis the same morning. While in the ED, he developed a sudden episode of shortness of breath. Mr. ABC has nil past medical or surgical history and has an allergy to Enalapril. His parameters taken are as follows: • Blood pressure: 112 /60 mmHg • Pulse rate: 42 beats/min • Temperature: 35.9°C • Spo2: 97% on room air • Respiration rate: 17 breaths/min An…

Pathophysiology: Small Bowel Obstruction The effect of small bowel obstruction is connected to its start and location. The start, location, and length of the intestinal tract nearest to the obstruction and the existence and severity of ischemia. The cause of small bowel obstruction include hernias, adhesions within the abdomen and tumors. The lumen near the obstruction fills with a massive amount of fluid and gas. The obstruction keeps water and electrolytes from properly absorbing. As a…

intervention. The medical care provider may give medicines or natural remedies for Metformin diarrhea control. Another contributing factor is a higher dosage. If the starting dose is high or increased too quickly, this can cause diarrhea. The drug is available in the following forms: • Oral immediate release tablet • Oral extended release tablet • Oral solution Patients on oral immediate release tablet are at a greater risk of experiencing Metformin with diarrhea after eating when…

This experiment analyzed the dissolved ions in a certain sample of seawater that was collected all around Galveston Bay and allowed an understanding of the composition of saltwater. The students were separated into four groups, each received a sample of seawater from a different location, such as Buoy 21, Day Mark 1, Pelican Island Cut, and the Coast Guard Station. The main ingredient in saltwater is water. Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom that are covalently bonded…

failure, which is a common cause of prerenal heart failure. Also, she had signs of being in the oliguric stage, such as her nonoliguric output of 510ml/day, her pitting edema, jugular vein distension, crackles bilaterally in the lungs, and changes in potassium (causing longer prolonged QRS and peaked T waves). After her diagnosis, she began to improve because she was in the recovery phase of ARF, where the BUN and creatinine levels begin to fall and CAVHD was no longer…
