| Kidneys release _____renin in response to low ____ concentration. | Renin , Na |
| Renin stimulates conversion of angiotensinogen to _____ which converts to _____ in the lungs. | angiotensin I , angiotensin II |
| ACE inhibitors do what? | blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II..blocks the constriction affect and prevents HTN. |
| What does angiotensin II do? | Major vasoconstrictor, stimulates Aldosterone release, causes Na retention, increases water reabsorbtion, releases K+ and H+ |

| PreRenal Failure causes | Fluid Volume Loss Hemorrhage GI Losses (vomiting, diarrhea) Renal Losses Burns Inadequate Volume Replacement |
| PreRenal Failure causes r/t Inadequate Cardiac Output | CHF MI cardiogenic shock dysrhythmias cardiac tamponade, PE |
| Vasoconstriction/Occlusion of Renal Blood Vessels r/t AFR | catecholamines hypertension vasopressors renal vessel embolism |
| RAAS System | retain volume increase sodium and water reabsorption |
| ARF Diagnostics | Decreased Urine Sodium , Urine Osmolality Increased (decreased free water excretion), Urine Specific Gravity Increased(> 1.020), oliguria/anuria, BUN:Cr ratio is increased >20 |
| ARF Treatment | Volume Replacement Extracellular Volume Sequestration, Inadequate Cardiac Output , Renal Artery Occlusion |
| Postrenal failure includes | Obstruction kidney, ureter, bladder, urethra Increased Intra-tubular Pressure abnormal nephron function reverses rapidly once obstruction is removed |
| Diagnosis of Renal Failure | KUB, ultrasound, IVP, retrograde pyelography, CT |
| Causes of Intrarenal Failure | Glomerulus or Renal Tubule Damage, glomerular, vascular or hematologic problem glomerulonephritis systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) DIC endocarditis pre-eclampsia |
| decrease in the blood supply to a bodily organ, tissue, or part caused by constriction or obstruction of the blood vessels | ischemia |
| Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN) | perfusion to the kidney is severely reduced Vasoconstriction & Ischemia damage the glomerular basement membrane and tubular epithelium |
| Na+/K+ Pump Fails | sodium remains in cell potassium remains outside cell causes additional cellular dysfunction and cellular edema |

| funciton of liver | Plays Major Role in Bile Secretion Iron Metabolism Plasma-Protein Production Detoxification of Drugs & Other Substances |
| where is the gallbladder? | Depression on Posterior Surface of Liver hangs from anterior/inferior margin of the liver |
| Function of the gallbladder | Secretes/Stores Bile Produced by Liver |
| where is the pancreas? | Posterior to Greater Curvature of Stomach |
| Arterial Bleed from Acute Longitudinal Tear in the Gastroesophageal Mucosa | Mallory-Weiss Tear |
| Associated with Chronic Cirrhosis causes the liver to become less compliant Pressure Increases in the Portal Circulation Blood in the Splanchnic System collateral circulation | Esophageal Varicies |

| describe the action of Crystalloid Solutions | source for electrolytes and a temporary source of fluid volume. They flow out of the vascular system rather quickly...fluid expanders |
| example of Crystalloid solution | Lactaced Ringers and Normal Saline |
| describe the action of Colliod Solutions | colloidal solutions are needed when a solution is required to remain in the vascular system and contain a protein |
| examples of Colloids | Whole human blood U.S.P. and Hetastarch are examples of colloid solutions. |
| action of antacids | control the pH of the gastric mucosa side effects diarrhea, electrolyte disturbances, metabolic alkalosis |
| action of histamine blockers | block stimulation of acid secretion from parietal cells Cimetidine Ranitidine Famotidine |
| side effects of histamine blockers | mucosa due to decreased pH increased risk of nosocomial pneumonia can cause thrombocytopenia |
| action of proton pump inhibitors | work within parietal cells, decrease acidity of acid pump Pantoprazole Omeprazole Side effects GI distress, headache, dizziness |
