Q

3 forces that drive glomerular filtration

A

1) capillary blood pressure - pushes plasma into bowmans capsule
2) plasma- colloid osmotic pressure- higher concentration inside
3) bowmans capulse hydrostatic pressure - backflow that pushes plasma out

Q

autoregulation of GFR

A
  • myogenic stretch: too much pressure = decrease blood flow via constriction
  • tubuloglomerular feedback: drop in BP = vasodilation
  • granular cells send signals to mascula cells to dilate or constrict arteriole

Q

how does the kidney concentrate urine

A

ADH= allows concentrated urine, binds to V2 receptors & forms aquaporins for water to pass through

Q

how do diuretcs & caffeine work

A

dureitics: block V2 receptors = pee more = less volume in body = BP decreases
caffiene/alcohol: ADH drops b/c they inhibit ADH = urine cannot be concentrated = pee large volumes of dilute urine

Q

4 chemical buffer systems

A

1) carbonic acid / bicarb
2) protein- AA can accept or donate
3) hemoglobin- maintains & buffers pH
4) phosphate- can bind more H = allows more H to be pumped into urine

35
Q

acid-base equation

A

H2O + CO2 <-> H+ + HCO3-

36
Q

vasa recta

A

supply medulla with O2

37
Q

ADH released vs not released

A

released=permeable tubules = concentrated
not release= impermeable tubules = dilute

38
Q

renal clearance = GFR

A

no reabsorption or secretion

39
Q

renal clearance < GFR

A

absorption, no secretion

40
Q

renal clearance > GFR

A

no absorption, only secretion

41
Q

A

monitor fluid
- if too little = signal arteries to increase fluid

44
Q

kidney stone
