what are the factors for aldosterone release?
angiotensin II and high K+
increased ketoacids in tubular fluid affect K+ how?
increase K+ tubular secretion (ketones are negatively charged, pulling K+ in)
where is ADH made?
hypothalamus/pituitary axis
what does an anion gap acidosis mean?
excess acids: lactic acid, ketoacids, toxic acid ingestion, renal failure
what is an anion gap?
[Na + K] - [HCO3 + Cl]
should be <12
what IV solution shifts fluid from ICF to ECF?
hypertonic saline
where does isotonic IV solution go?
ECF (for fluid depleted patients)
what is glucose IV solution for?
water replacement (high osmolality patients)
what is a colloid infusion for?
shift fluid from interstitial fluid to intravascular
what is it called when HCO3<24?
metabolic acidosis
what is it called when HCO3>24?
metabolic alkylosis
what is it called when CO2<40?
respiratory alkylosis
what is it called when CO2>40?
respiratory acidosis
what is an anion gap?
what is it's normal value?
positive charges - negative charges
[Na + K]-[HCO3 + Cl]
~12
what does an elevated anion gap mean?
extra (unmeasureable) acids
what is an osmolar gap?
measured - calculated osmolality
2Na + glucose + urea + EtOH
what does an elevated osmolar gap mean?
presence of uncharged osmols (usually toxic alcohols)
what are titratable acids?
phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid
what are two kinds of urinary buffers that help to excrete acid?
titratable acids
ammonium
what is aldosterone's action on K?
as it reabsorbs Na, K is excreted
what is insulin's action on K?
it stimulates uptake from ECF to ICF
what is effect of beta-antagonists on K?
keep K in ECF
what is effect of beta-agonists on K?
same as insulin
shift K from ECF to ICF
