Q

how does the charge of something affect clearance

QUERY

A

if something isnt charged its more likely to be reabsorbed into the blood so clearance is slower

23
Q

example of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors

A

Acetazolamide

24
Q

how do the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors work

A

sodium isnt transported out of the tubule so it accumulates water in the filtrate

25
Q

what is the principle of osmotic diuresis

A

use something which drags water out with it

such as a sugar that cant be broken down

26
Q

example of an osmotic diuresis

A

D-mannitol

27
Q

where in the kidney do osmotic diuretics work

A

PCT

ascending loop of henle

28
Q

why might you use osmotic diuretics during neurosurgery

A

to reduce intracranial pressure

29
Q

why would you use osmotic diuretics in diabetic ketoacidosis or hypoglycaemic coma

A

patients dont respond to elevated glucose

and they have cerebral oedema

30
Q

what is IOP

A

intraocular pressure

31
Q

what might you use for elevated intraocular pressure

A

osmotic diuresis

32
Q

when should you not administor osmotic diuretics

A

if you dont know they have renal function

33
Q

what is the target of loop diuretics

A

inhibit the Na+/K+/2Cl- co-transporter

34
Q

which part of the enzyme do loop diuretics work on

A

Cl-

35
Q

how do loop diuretics work

A

stop sodium chloride getting out of the tubule

36
Q

examples of loop diuretics

A

furosemide

bumetanine

37
Q

when would you use loopdiuretics

A

left ventricular failure = pulmonary oedema

chronic cardiac failure

38
Q

what should be monitored when using loop diuretics

A

electrolytes

39
Q

what is the thiazide target

A

Na/Cl (K+) co-transporter

40
Q

where do thiazides work

A

DCT

41
Q

what do thiazides do

A

stop sodium reabsorption in the DCT

42
Q

how do you administer thiazides

A

orally

43
Q

how long do thiazides take to work

A

1-2 hours

44
Q

how do you administer loop diuretics

A

orally

45
Q

how long do loop diuretics take to work

A

1 hour

46
Q

how long for loop diuretics to complete diuresis

A

6 hours

47
Q

how long for thiazides to complete diuresis

A

12-24 days

48
Q

what time of day would you administer thiazides

A

early - so you dont disrupt sleep

49
Q

drug that works on the collecting tubule inhibiting sodium reabsorption

A

amiloride

50
Q

why is amiloride a mild diuretic drug

A

works on the collecting tubule and most of the sodium has already been reabsorbed

51
Q

why is spirolactone slow acting

A

effect on gene expression

52
Q

what is spiralctone

A

potassium spairing - less excreted

53
Q

what shouldnt you administer spirolactone with and why

A

ACE inhibitor - has an effect on potassium secretion

hyperkalkalaemia

54
Q

which two trugs might cause tubular toxicity

A

antibiotics such as aminoglycans and tetracyclines

55
Q

wnat might the chemo drugs cisplatin and methotroxate do to the kidneys

A

means you need intensive hydration

56
Q

what might NSAIDs do to the kidney

A

glomerulopathy
