Respiratory Flashcards
(437 cards)
what is the functional unit of the kidney
the nephron
deoxyhemoglobin
hemoglobin that is less that fully saturated with O2
what stops the filtration of very large anionic molecules (proteins) through the filtration barrier
expression of negatively charged glycoproteins on the endothelial cells
respiratory driving force equation
driving force = Patm - Palv
surface tension
the force acting at an air/water interface resulting from water having a greater attraction itself that air
which of the following is NOT a partial compensation for fluid loss
a. A retention of water from the kidney that can actually in some case cause a hypo-osmotic plasma (< 290 mOsm/kg H 2 O)
b. The increase in sympathetic nervous stimulation of the kidney acting on Beta receptors on the JG cells increase the release of rennin and thus angiotensin II
c. An increase in the permeability of the collecting duct to urea to facilitate the osmotic gradient in the interstitial fluid of the kidney
d. A massive vasoconstriction occurs that essentially block blood flow to the kidneys in order to shunt blood to more important organs such as heart and brain.

describe the process of ventilatory feedback from hypoventiliation
hypoventilation increases PCO2, decreases pH and PO2 (indirectly)
chemoreceptors detect change
stimulate CPG to increase ventilation
increased ventilation
what enzymes are responsible for the movement of Na and K out of the tubule in the ascending loop of henle
Na and K move with Na/K/2Cl symporter
Na alone is by Na/H antiporter
nearly all of what two substances is reabsorbed in the PCT
glucose and AA
what are the three main parts of inspiration and expiration
action on the chest wall
change in intrapleural pressure
change in alveoli
what diuretics work on the collecting duct
amiloride and triamterene
how many oxygen binding sites are present in hemoglobin
4
what is the action of hydrochlorothiazide that helps control blood pressure
decrease in intravascular fluid that will decrease the amount of preload to the heart to decrease stroke volume and cardiac out put
decreasing surface tension has what effect on collapsing pressure
it increases it
what forces control the production of ultrafiltration
starling forces
what would a creatinine plasma level of = 1.2 indicate
1.3-1.6
>/= 1.7
normal
borderline or increased creatinine due to muscle mass
renal disease
what are mesangial cells
smooth muscle cells that remove proteins and trapped residues from the basement membrane to keep the filter from getting clogged
what will stimulate the release of natriuretic peptide
what will the effect be on GFR and RBF
increase GFR, no effect on RBF
three main ways the pressure in the glomerular capsule (PGC) can be altered
changing the resistance in the afferent arteriole
changing the efferent arteriole resistance
changing the renal arteriole pressure
what is the typical GFR
how much of that volume is reabsorbed
125 mL/min
99%
how does PCO2 effect pH
increasing PCO2 will increase the amount of HCO3 in the blood and increase pH
decreasing PCO2 will increase the amount of H+ in blood, decreasing pH
where is the juxaglomerular apparatus found
what are three cells found there
between the distal tubule and the afferent arteriole
macula densa
extraglomerular messangial cells
renin/angiotensin producing cells
what is the action of intercalated cells and principle cells on K
principle cells uptake K from the BL via Na/K, then it is secreted through passive diffusion
Intercalated cells reabsorb K from the tubule via H+/K ATPase
solubility coefficient of O2 in water is inversely proportional to what
temperature
