Principal cation in the ECF
Na
Principal cation in the ICF
K
major determinant of LV filling volume, CO, MAP
intravascular volume
diagnostic hallmark of decrease EABV
Urine sodium < 15
principal anion lostin diarrhea
bicarbonate
acid base in diarrhea
hyperchloremic acidosis
acid base in diuretics, bartter, Gitelman
hypokalemic alkalosis
K and acid base in adrenal insufficiency
hyperkalemia and met acidosis
urine parameters in hypovolemia
u.spg > 1.020, Una < 10, Uosm > 400 mOsm/Kg
Fena of hypovolemia
less than 1%
FeNa of hypvolemia with diuretics
less than 30-35%
mainstay for volume replacement
crystalloids isotonic 0.9%
fluid of choice for burns/trauma
colloids
clilnical detection of edema occurs when interstitial fluid is
> 2 to 3 L
sine qua non for Na and water retention in cirrhosis with portal hypertension
intrasinusoidal hypertension > 12 mmHg
halmark of fluid retention in cirrhosis
peripheral arterial vasodilation with vasoconstriction
standard of care for heart failure
B blocker
vasoconstrictor of choice for liver cirrhosis
terlipressin
a-adrenergic agonist inhibits release of glucagon, no effect on renal fxn
ocreotide
treatment of choice for HRS
liver transplantation
daily insensible water loss
8-10 ml/kg
primary determinant of free water excretion in regulation of H20
AVP
most important stimulus of AVP secretion
hypertonicity, oncotic pressure of plasma
most sensitive osmoreceptor cells
anterior hypothalamus
