Question
Answer
show 60% of body weight; 40% ICF' 20% ECF;' 4% Plasma; 16% Interstitium  
🗑
Serum Osmolality   show
🗑
Osmolarity   show
🗑
show (Na+ X 2)+(glucose/18)+(BUN/2.8)  
🗑
show 230-300 mOSm/kg/liter  
🗑
show Tension that effective osmotic pressure exerts on cell size through movement of water across the cell membrane. Determined through electrolytes which cannot permeate membrane and therefore pull water out of cell via osmosis.  
🗑
Isotonic solution   show
🗑
Hypotonic solution   show
🗑
show Concentration outside cell of electrolytes is larger than inside. Water is being pulled out of cell and cell shrinks.  
🗑
show Water and Sodium  
🗑
show changes in vascular and interstitial fluid volume  
🗑
show Hyponatremia or Hypernatremia (low or high sodium levels)  
🗑
show Result of saline deficit or excess (respectively) and therefore isotonic fluid volume deficit or excess  
🗑
Hypotonic dilution of extracellular sodium   show
🗑
show Hypernatremia  
🗑
show 1-2% change in serium osmolality activates thirst; this is emergency response and it normally doesn't come to this. Increased osmolality stimulates osmoreceptors via tonicity; vascular stretch receptors monitor volume; angiotension II responds to low vol.  
🗑
show ADH opens aquaporin channels at collecting duct of kidneys to allow reabsorption of water into blood. Vasopressin receptors are activated to cause vasoconstriction even in low blood volume  
🗑
R-A-A System for regulating water and sodium   show
🗑
Effects of Isotonic Fluid (saline) Deficit   show
🗑
show Baroreceptors sense volume deficit; sympathetic nervous system increases Na and H2O reabsorption; ADH released from pituitary to increase thirst.  
🗑
show Normal Na associated with volume loss; acute weight loss; increase in ADH (as compensation)=decreased urine output but increased urine specific gravity and osmolality; increased serum osmolality; increased thirst, hematocrit, BUN  
🗑
show Hypotension; Tachycardia, weak pulse; Shock; Decreased ECF volume; Impaired temperature regulation (increased body temp)  
🗑
Saline (isotonic fluid) Excess   show
🗑
Saline Excess compensatory mechanisms   show
🗑
Saline Excess manifestations   show
🗑
Serium Electrolyte Imbalance causes   show
🗑
Hypernatremia Causes   show
🗑
show Elevated serium Na, osmolaliity, BUN, hematocrit; Increased ADH and thirst; Intracellular Dehydration; Headache, agitation, decreased reflexes, seizures, coma, tachycardia, decreased BP  
🗑
show Sodium loss or water gain; inadequate sodium intake  
🗑
Hypovolemic Hyponatremia   show
🗑
show ECF volume is abnormally increased  
🗑
Isovolemic Hyponatremia   show
🗑
Hypertonic Hyponatremia   show
🗑
Hypotonic Hyponatremia   show
🗑
Hyponatremia Manifestations   show
🗑
show Predominantly intracellular; largely in muscle; largely excreted and regulated by kidney; controlled by aldosterone(Na retain, K excrete)  
🗑
show When H ions increase inside the cell, K gets pushed out. This helps buffer but can cause hyperkalemia. Kidneys then get rid of K to prevent hyper.  
🗑
show When you give insulin, acidosis corrected and H is no longer pushing K out of cell. But important to regulate K levels because may have already been pushed out and excreted, so with type 1 hypokalemia can occur.  
🗑
Functions of Serium Potassium   show
🗑
show As K increases=more positive potential (cells more excitable and rate of repolarization incrases) K decrease=more negative potenital, takes greater stimulus to excite cell and open Na channels, rate of repolarization delayed  
🗑
Hypokalemia Causes   show
🗑
show Impaired ability to concentrate urine; anorexia, nausea, vomit, constipation, ab distenstion; muscle flabbiness, weakness, fatigue, cramps, tenderness,paralysis; hypotension, increased sensitivity to DIG, dysrhythmias; confusion; metabolic alkalosis  
🗑
Hypokalemia EKG changes   show
🗑
show Decreased renal elimination, excessive rapid administration, shifts from ICF to ECF (as with H ions)  
🗑
show nausea, vomit, diarrhea, cramps; weakness, dizziness, cramps at muscles; EKG changes, cardiac arrest  
🗑
Hyperkalemia EKG Changes   show
🗑
Calcium and Phosphorus Facts and Distribution   show
🗑
Regulation of Calcium and Phosphorus   show
🗑
show Protein bound: cannot diffuse into ICF from plasma; Complexed: chelated with citrate, phosphate, not ionized; Ionized: Free to influence cellular functions  
🗑
show Enzyme rxns, membrane potentials and neuronal excitability, muscle contraction, hormone and NT release, cardiac contractility/automaticity, blood coagulation  
🗑
Hypocalcemia Causes   show
🗑
show increased neuromuscular excitability, cramps, seizure  
🗑
show Increased intestinal absorption, excessive vitamin D, increased bone resorption (increased PTH, malignant neoplasms, promlonged immobility), decreased elimination (thiazide diuretics, lithium therapy)  
🗑
show Decreased neuromuscular excitability; weakness, lethargy, CNS depression; inability to concentrate urine, kidney stones; hypertension, AV block  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
