Q

if equilibrium point determine BP why is everybody’s BP a little bit different

A

there are two ways to determien long term arterial pressure:

Q

the two ways to determine long term arterial pressure

A

The degree of pressure shift of the renal output curve for water and salt

26
a human can change salt and water intake trremendously and not alter
BP
27
most people are salt _____
insensitive
28
if you are salt sensitive, it means that
the chronic renal output curve is much less steep, so increase in salt or water changes pressure and you have to change renal output to change it
29
what can cause salt sensitive
loss of functional nephrons due to kidney injury excessive formation of antinatriuretic hormones reduction in kidney mass or injury to kidney
30
what can cause loss of functional nephron
kidney injury
31
nephron is
functional unit of kidney
32
can kidney regenerate new nephrons
no
33
what happens to nephron number as you age
decrease
34
once a nephron is gone
its gone :(
35
each nephron contains
a tuft of glomerular capillaries called the glomerulus a long tubule in which the filtered fluid is converted into urine.
36
if kidneys are destroyed, only way to remove extracellular fluid is
dialysis
37
what happens to BP to someone in renal failure
increase - you can't get rid of the fluid
38
antinatriuretic hormones do what
hormones that reabsorb sodium and water in kidney to increase blood volume
39
examples of anti­natriuretic hormones
angiotensin II | aldosterone
40
if person has too much renin released they are
incresing sodium reabsorption, pressure will get higher
41
antiotensin II at level of adrenal gland, does what
increases release of aldosterone
42
hyperaldosterone can lead to
hypertension
43
aldosterone increases
sodium reabsorption, extracellular fluid volume, arterial pressure
44
hypertension itself will cause
renal damage
45
hypertension that causes renal damage is causing
more hypertension
46
diabetes causes renal
damage
47
diabetes is a risk factor for
hypertension
48
greater than normal increase in arterial pressure is reuired to raise renal output sufficiently to maintain:
a balance b/w intake and output of salt and water
49
why does increasing fluids increase arterial pressure
see chart pg 13
50
mean circulatory filling pressure
average pressure necessary to cause filling of the circulation with blood
51
the higher the blood volume, what happens to mean circulatory filling pressure
the higher
52
the higher mean circulatory filling pressure, the more
venous return
53
increase extracellular fluid volume, then what happens
increase blood volume, increase mean circulatory filling pressure, increase venous return
54
mean systemic circulatory pressure
pressure in systemic circulation w/out the heart
55
arterial pressure =
CO x TPR
56
hemorrhaging pt what would happen to mean circulatory filling pressure
decrease
57
hemorrhaging person with decreased mean circulatory filling presure, how do we get blood back toheart?
baroreceptors fire less and veins will constrict (decrease compliance) so even though there's less blood we can compensate to bring more blood to heart
58
increase in arterial pressure has to do with what tow different things
CO x TPR
59
what is thought to happen is that increased in cardiac output increases arterial pressure, and also the tissues do what
autoregulation
60
describe tissue autoregulation
they will constrict themselves if they get too much blood, to increase arterial pressure
61
changes in long term artierial pressure
anything that increases renal vascular resistance
62
if increase in renal vascular resistance, more pressure is needed to
excrete same amount of salt and water
63
what things would increase peripheral resistance in kidney
atherlosclerotic plaques
64
anything that decreases number of functional nephrons will do what
make it harder to cause same amount of urine flow, so pressure has to be higher
65
changes in total peripheral resistance do not change
long term arterial pressure

68
ace blocks levles of
angiotensin II
69
angiotensin II is a
vasoconstrictor
70
pacemaker in the heart is the thing that is firing
fastest
71
a mean arterial pressure greater than what is considered hypertensive
110
72
diastolic blood pressure greater than what is hypertension
90
73
what can the lethal effects of hypertension be
excess workload on the heart - will cause heart failure over time stroke injury of kidneys
74
athletic hypertrophy vs. hypertension causing hypertorphy
they are different kinds of hypertrophy, they don't understand why
75
if a lot of left kidney is removed and entire right kidney is removed what happens to pressure right after
increases
76
if you put the rats who have had most of kidney removed put them on .9% NaCl what happens to their mean arterial rpessure
it goes way up
77
why does the salt make the rats with removed kidneys arterial pressure go way up
they need the extra pressure to get rid of the salt in the water that they are drinking b/c you removed a bunch of their kidney they also drink more b/c the salt water doesn't quench their thirst

82
kidneys themselves can sense when pressure
falls
83
when pressure decreaes in kidney what is released
renin
84
renin substrate converts angiotensinogen into
angiotensin I
85
angiotensin I is turned into Angiotensin II by what enzyme
converting enzyme
86
what enzyme do ACE inhibitors block
converting enzyme, so block effects of angiotensin II
87
ACE inhibitors do what
enhance effects of bradykinin | block angiotensin II
88
what does angiotensin II do
vasoconstriction | renal retention of salt and water
89
how long does it take for vasoconstriction to happen with angiotensin II
minutes - very quickly
90
how long does it take for angiotensin II to increase salt and water retention
days
91
there are beta 1 receptors in kidney, that when there is sympathetic stimulation what will happen
increase renin release
92
if BP falls, decrease in pressure is sensed in kidney and kidney releases
renin
93
when BP falls sympathetic activity goes up and what happens in kidney
NE activate beta receptors which further activate renin release
94
effects of angiotensin II in kidney causes kidney to
retain salt and water
95
what is direct effect of angiotensin II in kidney
Increases tubular reabsorption of sodium and water | Decreases renal blood flow
96
what is indirect effect of angiotensin II in kidney
Potent stimulator of aldosterone release from adrenal glands | Increases sodium reabsorption in renal tubules
97
explain the renin dependent "one kidney" goldblatt hypertension experiment
pg 26
98
pts with stenosis of renal artery of single remaining kidney what would happen
renin dependent hypertension
99
what is the clinical significance of the two kidney hypertension
Stenosis of a single renal artery caused by atherosclerosis, in a person who has two kidneys
100

103
Hypertension in the Upper Part of the Body Caused by
coarction of the aorta
104
risk factors for hypertension
sedentary lifestyle, weight gain, too much salt
105
most hypertension the cause is
unknown
106
the best medicine for hypertension
exercise
107
what is primary hypertension
hypertension with unknown cause
108
what is another name for primary hypertension
essential hypertension
109
describe graphical analysis of arterial pressure in essential hypertension
it will shift left to the level your BP has increased
110
the larger the shift left in graphical analysis of hypertension the
higher the BP is
111
thiazide diuretics for hypertension what do they do
work at kidney to try to remove extracellular fluid
112
beta blockser for hypertension what do they do
block/diminish sympathetic stimulation on beta receptors
113
ACE inhibitors for hypertension what do they do
decrease production of angiotensin II
114
ACE inhibitors, what does ACE stand for
Angiotensin-converting enzyme
115
ARBs what do they do for hypertension
block the receptor that angiotensin works at
116
what does ARB stand for
angiotensin II receptor blockers
117
calcium channel blockers for hypertension how do they work
smoth muscles contract with calcium - this limits the contraction of the heart (and I think arteries?) so vessels would dilate
