Circulation ren

Kidneys roll in circulation

QuestionAnswer
What is kidneys roll in blood pressure? Increased bp -> increased diuresis and natriuresis -> Decreased BV
What is pressure diuresis/natriuresis? A few mm hg increase -> doubles the effect of renal output.
What is the two primary determinants of the long-term arterial pressure level? Shifting the equilibrium point. That is to change the intake/outtake level in ren.
Decribe the arterial pressure in kidney. CO and peripheral resistant changes while arterial pressure in ren is constant.
Define hyper tension. Blood pressure s>135 d>90
Hypertension causes? 1) heart failure and coronary heart disease 2)increased bp-> cerbral infarkt (stroke) 3) increased bp-> hemorrage in ren
Hypertension is caused by? Excessive accumulation of extracellular fluid in the body.
Describe changes in circulary function during volume-loading hypertension! 1) increased extracellular fluid volume-> increased blood volume -> increased CO -> increased bp actives baroreceptors-> Vasodilatation -> decreased resistance
Why does kidney failure cause high pressure? Kidney can't secrete salt -> hypertension
Salt causes? 1) Stimulation of thirst center in medulla.
What is the salts effect on renin-angiotensin system? Increased salt intake->Increased ECV-> Increased BP-> Decreased renin & angiotensin-> decreased retention of salt and water-> Return of ECV back to normal-> normal BP
Why does aldesteronism lead to hypertension? Tumor or patological disorder in adrenal gland -> increase alderone release-> increased salt&water absorbtion ->hypertension
Describe the renin-angiotensin system! dec. bp->prerenin (stored in juxta glomeruler cells) ->renin (func. enzym) -> angiotensin-I (have a little vasoconstrion effect)-> angiotensin-II (lungs)
What does angiotensin-II (prod. lungs) have for effect? 1)Vasoconstricter (arteriols and little on veins) 2)retention of water & salt (because of renvasoconstrion and better absorbtion) 3) release of aldorone (causes better absorbtion in ren)

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
