Patho Quiz 2/ Vocab

Chapters 4-5

QuestionAnswer
What do changes in fluid affect Blood volume, cellular functions.
What do electrolyte concentrations do? Affect electrical activity, nerve and muscle cells. Shift fluid from one compartment to another.
What is an electrolyte? Electrically charged substance,can ionize,forms ions and conducts electricity
What is total body water (TBW)? 60% of body weight, rest is fat and fat free solids (bone)
What is intracellular fluid (ICF)? Fluid within cells, 2/3 of "TBW"
What is extracellular fluid (ECF)? Fluid outside of cells
What is interstitial fluid? Fluid in space between cells and blood vessels.
What is intravascular fluid? Blood plasma
What is lymph? Body fluid containing white cells mainly lymphocytes.
What are some transcellular fluids? Synovial, sweat, intracellular fluids, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), pleural, peritoneal, pericardial fluids.
How do you gain water? Drinking, water in food, oxidative metabolism (respiration).
How do you loose water? Renal excretion, stool, vaporization through skin and lungs.
Net filtration Movement of fluid back and forth across the capillary wall.
Capillary hydrostatic pressure (force that determines filtration) Outward movement of water from capillary to interstitial space.
Capillary oncotic pressure (force that determines filtration) Osmotically attracts water into the capillary. (water goes in)
Interstitial oncotic pressure (force that determines filtration) Attracts water from capillary into interstitial space (water leaves capillary goes into interstitial space)
Interstitial hydrostatic pressure (force that determines filtration) Facilitates movement of water into capillary ( water flows in)
What does the arterial end of the capillary do? Hydrostatic pressure forces fluid out.
What does the venous end of the capillary do? Oncotic pressure attracts fluids.
What are osmotic forces? Pressure that must be applied to a solution to stop osmosis. ECF osmotic balance depends on SODIUM ICF osmotic balance depends on POTASSIUM
What is edema? Excessive fluid in interstitial space.
Increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure (force that causes edema) Venous obstruction, inflamation of veins, tight clothes, prolonged standing, salt and water retention. Congestive heart failure renal failure.
Decrease in oncotic pressure (force that causes edema) Loss/lowered plasma albumin. Filtered capillary fluid remains in the interstitial space. (Cirrhosis or malnutrition)
Increase in capillary permiability. (force that causes edema) Inflamation/immune responses. Trauma burns injuries that crush blood vessels. Plasma protein escapes, decrease in oncotic pressure fluid remains in interstitial space
Lymph Obstruction/ removal of lymphatic channels. (force that causes edema) Lymphodema- fluids and proteins accumulate in interstitial space.
Localized Edema Limited to site of trauma, one part of body
Generalized Edema Everywhere, other parts of the body.(fluid is distributed)
Pitting Edema (dependent edema) When tissue over bones is pressed it leaves pits.
What are some effect of edema? Weight gain/ nutrients travel further to reach cell, impaired blood flow, wounds heal slower.
Cation Positively charged ion
What hormone regulates sodium balance and is synthesized by the adrenal cortex? Aldosterone
What is the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system? Hormone system that regulates blood pressure and water (fluid balance)
What is renin? A protein that stimulates the formation of angiotensin I.
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in the lungs converts to antiotensin II
Angiotensin II Stimulates the secretion of aldosterone
Natiuretic hormones (peptides) decrease blood pressure/ excretion of sodium and H2O, vasodilaiton
Anion Negative charge, electroneutrality
Antidiuretic hormome ADH, regulates water balance, secreed when plasma osmolarity increases, blood volume decreases, BP drops
Osmoreceptors In Hypothalamus receive message that plasma osmolarity is high
Isotonic alterations Total body water change with equal electrolyte and water change. Isotonic fluid loss and excess.
Hypotonic alterations Concentaration of ECF is above normal (too much)
Hypertonic alterations Concentraiton of ECF is less than normal (not enough)
Osmotic Pressure PULLS WATER across a membrane. Attractive pressure of a particle in a solution.
Hydrostatic Pressure PUSHES WATER across a membrane.
Isotonic fluid excess Result of too much IV fluids, too much aldosterone, drugs (cortisone). Causes weight gain. High BP, edema indicators, can lead to pulmonary edema, heart failure, treat with diruretics.
Hypernatremia Electrolyte disturbance, increased sodium in blood, decrease of free water in the body.
Waht causes sodium loss? Pure sodium deficits, vomiting, diarrhea, burns, use of diruretics.
Dilutional hyponatremia Fluid replacement with 5% dextrose water, glucose metabolized.
Hypoosmolar hyponatremia Renal excretion of water impared.
Hypochloremia Loss of chloride.Result of vomiting, occurs in Cystic Fibrosis.
Potassium tolerance Body adapts to higher levels over time
Hydroxyapatite Calcium located in the bones 99%. Cloting, structure, hormone secretion.
Proton Another name for a hydrogen ion.
pH Indicates how acidic or basic a fluid is.
Acids Add H+ (protons) to a liquid, causes pH to go down.
Bases Adds OH- (hydroxide) to a liquid, causes Ph to go up.
How much does the concentration of unit change if the pH changes by one unit. 10 fold.
Volatile acids Eliminated as CO2
Nonvolatile Eliminated by the kidney.
Buffer Chemical that can bind excessive H+(acid) or excessive OH-(base).
Lungs Release C02, decreases amt of carbonic acid
Kidneys Can absorb or regenerate bicarbonate
Compensation Adjustment by the lungs and kidneys. Deep rapid breaths, release CO2.
Correction Carbonic acid/bicarbonate levels return to normal.
Metabolic Acidosis Excess acid, bicarbonate depleted- hyperventilation corrects it. Caused by renal failure, aspirin poisoning.
Respiratory Alkalosis Hypoventilation- more bicarbonate retained-CPD causes it
Noncarbonic acids increase Lactic acid from anerobic respiration (muscles) occurs quickly.
Bicarbonate is lost from ECF Buffers, depleted in severe acidosis
Escessive loss of metabolic acids Caused by alkalosis.
Respiratory acidosis Hyperventilation increases PaCO2 levels, elevated carbonis acid. Excess CO2 in blood
Renal compensation Elimination of H+, retention of bicarbonate
Anion Gap Anions not maasured in lab reports.
Metabolic alkalosis Excess plasma bicarbonate -hypoventilation-loss of gastric juices causes it
Respiratory Alkalosis Hyperventilation lowers PaCO2 levels-bicarbonate excreted, hydrogen retained. Caused by severe anxiety.
Innate Immunity Natural,mechannical,physical, biochemical, and inflammation.
Frist Line of Defense Ph of skin, low temp of skin.
Second Line of Defense Inflammatory response - cellular damage
Third Line Adaptive, slower,specific, involves memory.
Lysosome Enzyme found in perspiration, saliva, tears.
Antimicrobial Peptides Secreted by epithelial cells, kills ,inhibits bacteria, fungi viruses
Cathelicidins Only one is known- kill bacteria disrupt membrane, neutrophils, mast cells, monocyte, released during inflammation.
Collectins Glycoproteins produced by lungs, enhance phagocytosis, activate compliment.
Closed barrier Digestive, respiratory, genitourinary tracts, skin, barriers between internal organs and environment.
Normal Flora Bacteria and fungi,specific to body surfaces, commensal one organisms benefit doesn't affect the other.
Mutulaistic Both benefit
Opportunistic Compromised immune system,normal flora can cause disease.
Inflammation Inflammatory response,first to injury, redness, swelling, heat, pain, loss of function.
Vasodilation Increased blood flow to area
Increased vascular permeability Cells contract, fluid leaks out, edema swelling, blood thicker.
White Blood Cells Stick to inner walls of vesicles.
Inflammation Benefits Limits spread of inflammatory response to healthy tissue. Interacts with adaptive immune system, prevents infection- contaminates microorganisms, initiates healing.
Plasma Protein System Multiple proteins in the blood, inactive enzymes, activated in a cascade. Complement- Clotting- Kinin
Complement System Proteins, directly destroys pathogens. 4 functions Opsonization- Chemotaxis-Anaphylatoxic activity-Cell Lysis. C3 and C5
Opsonins Coat bacteria
Chemotactic factors Attract phagocytes to site of inflamation
Anaphylatoxins Induce degranulation of mast cells (C3a and C5a)
Membrane attack complex (MAC) C5b-C9. Creates pores in membrane or cells or bacteria, water enters cell-- lysis.
Classical Activation Activated by antibodies
Lectin Activation Activated by plasma protein that binds bacterial polysaccharides
Alternative Alteration Activated by cell wall lipopolysaccharides from gram negative bacteria, fungi.

Clotting (coagulation) system Plamsa proteins/ form blood clot, traps infection
Factor X Fibrin Formation that forms a fibrin clot.
Kinen System Interacts with clotting system. Final product is Bradykinen, causes dilation of blood vessels, induces pain, smooth muscle contraction
