Question
Answer
% body wgt that's total body water, intracell, extracell, plasma, interstitial?   TBW=60% (50% in women), ICF=40%, ECF=20% (incl 15% interstitial, 5% plasma)  
🗑
how does Hct change in hypovol   for ea 1L deficit: Hct incrsd 3%  
🗑
algorithm of tests for management of low serum Na   1) measure serum osmolality (to determine if true hypoNa (hypotonic), or hypertonic, or isotonic (pseudohypoNa); 2) if hypotonic measure volume status; 3) if hypovol hypotonic hypoNa measure Urine Na to see if renal Na loss or extrarenal  
🗑
Serum osmolality cut off for hypotonic, hypertonic hypoNa   >295=hypertonic, 280-295=nml, <280=hypotonic  
🗑
in hypotonic hypoNa, how differentiate extrarenal Na loss and renal Na loss   <10=extrarenal loss, >20=renal Na loss  
🗑
causes of hypertonic hypoNa? isotonic HypoNa?   hypertonic=osmotic substances ie hyperGlu; isotonic=other particles, ie fat and protein  
🗑
causes of hypovol hypotonic hypoNa (divided by renal and extrarenal)   extrarenal: 3rd space, diarrhea, vomit; renal: diuretic, low aldos, ATN  
🗑
causes of euvol hypotonic hypoNa   SIADH, polydipsia, postop, hypothyroid  
🗑
causes of hypervol hypotonic hypoNa   CHF, nephrotic, liver dz  
🗑
how treat hypovol hyperNa   give isotonic NaCl to restore hemodynamics, then correct Na  
🗑
how treat hypervol hyperNa   furosemide  
🗑
describe pseudohypoparathroid   AR where end organs not responsive to PTH (so PTH levels are very high); also MR and short metacarpals  
🗑
how differentiate renal and GI losses in causing hypoK   GI=urine K<20, renal >20  
🗑
clinical features of hypoK   arrhythmias (flatten/inversion T wave, appearance U wave), i DTR, fatigue, musc wknss, digitalis toxicity, N/V paralytic ileus  
🗑
when evaluating hypoK: causes K nml but redistributed   metabolic alkalosis, insulin, epi  
🗑
treatment of hypoK   oral KCl, but if <2.5 or arrhythm use IV KCl; max 10mEq/hr by peripheral IV, 20mEq/hr by central lines; add 1% lidocaine bc it burns  
🗑
how much KCl treatment raises serum K?   10mEq KCl incrs 0.1mEq/L  
🗑
hyperK and how affects ammonia in kidney   hyperK inihibits renal ammonia synthesis and reabsorb->met acidosis->more hyperK  
🗑
causes of hyperK (grpd by incrsd total body K, redistrib, spurious)   incrsd total body K:RF, spironolactone, ACEI, blood transfusion; redistrib: acidosis, tissue/cell breakdown (rhabdomyolysis, hemolysis, burn), GI bleed, insulin defic; spurious: using tourniquet too long w/o rept fist clench  
🗑
clinical features of hyperK   arrhythmias, esp>6 (peaked T, long PR, widen QRS, V fib and cardiac arrest); decrsd DTR& N/V (same as hypoK)  
🗑
2 MC causes severe hypophosphate   EtOH, DKA  
🗑
MC cause hyperphosphate   renal insuffic  
🗑
causes of metabolic acidosis w incrsd anion gap   MUDPILES=MeTOH, uremia (CRF), DKA, Paraldehyde, Infxn/Iron/INH, Lactic acidosis (incl hypoxic tissues, shock, hypovol, sepsis), Ethylene glycol/EtOH (although EtOH lactic acid causes AG), Salicylates  
🗑
respiratory compensation for metabolic acidosis   CO2=1.5(HCO3)+8 +/-2 -->if not in that range, need to look for another acid-base problem.  
🗑
what does it mean if CO2 is higher than what calculated for respir compensation for metabol acidosis   respir acidosis--which can indicate impending respi failure  
🗑
what 2 events are needed for metabolic alk   1) an initial event that causes loss of H+ or incrsd HCO3, 2) inability to excrete xtra HCO3  
🗑
what's the algorithm for categories of metabol alk   ECF contraction and hypoK (urine Cl<10 saline responsive) and ECF expansion w HTN (urine Cl>20, saline resistant)  
🗑
what are the causes of metabol alk (categorized by Urine Cl)   1) ECF contraction, urine Cl<10: vomitting (loss H+), diuretics; 2) ECF expansion, urine Cl>20: primary hyperaldost (Na and HCO3 reabsorb, Cl lost), Cushings  
🗑
tx for 2 grps of metabol alk   1) ECF contraction: NS + K; 2) ECF expansion: underlying cause or spironolactone  
🗑
compensation amts for respir acidosis   acute: HCO3 incrses 1 mmol/L per 10 CO2, chronic: 4 mmol/L per 10 CO2  
🗑
compensation amts for respir alk   acute: HCO3 decrses 2 mmol/L per 10 CO2, chronic: 5-6 mmol/L per 10 CO2  
🗑
how do PTH, calcitonin, and vit D ea act on bone   PTH and vit D incrs Ca, P reabsorb, calcitonin decrses  
🗑
how do PTH, calcitonin, and vit D ea act on GI   PTH activ vitD, calcitonin decrs Ca, vit incrses Ca  
🗑
how do PTH, calcitonin, and vit D ea act on renals   PTH and vitD incrs Ca, decrses P; calcitonin does the opposite  
🗑
ECG changes QT assoc w metabolites   QT: long=hypoCa or Mg, short=hyperCa;  
🗑
ECG changes PR assoc w metabolites   PR: long=hyperK or Mg, short=hypoK;  
🗑
