Q

how does hypoxia cause cellular injury?

A

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain which makes ATP, without the final electron acceptor, the cell cannot make enough ATP

Q

what occurs during cellular swelling and why?

A

Na/K pumps need ATP to work. When they don’t work, Na accumulates inside the cell, and due to osmosis, water follows and also accumulates inside the cell. Reversible

Q

what occurs during hydropic degeneration and why?

A

Cells need to do something with excess water inside the cell, so they channel the water to the smooth ER which puts them in vacuoles that detach from the smooth ER

Q

what happens during lipid degeneration and why?

A

Smooth ER is dealing with excess water and loses it’s primary function - lipid metabolism. lipid accumulates in the vacuoles with the water. All organelles are pushed to the sides and the vacuole resembles a mature adipocyte

A

albumin in plasma colloid pressure

113
Q

how does albumin work to pull water into the capillaries?

119
Q

when does filtration occur?

A

when HPc is higher than OPc

120
Q

why is it common for venous pressure to be lower than arteriole in HPc

A

further from the heart, filtered out a lot of fluid in the capillaries at the arteriole end, increased friction of the plasma in the capillary as it moves

121
Q

why is OPc about the same on both the arteriole and venule ends?

A

it increases it

126
Q

capillaries usually absorb most of the fluid they filter. Where are the exceptions?

A

in the kidneys - glomeruli, and in the alveolar capillaries in the lungs

127
Q

accumulation of excess fluid in the tissue

A

edema

128
Q

what causes edema to occur?

A

filtration without adequate reabsorption, fluid accumulates in the tissues

129
Q

what are the two types of edema

A

pitting edema and myedema

130
Q

what causes the pit in pitting edema?

A

when pressure is applied to the area, it causes reabsorption of the fluid in that area, and the pit is formed

131
Q

myedema

A

endocrine disorder (thyroid disease) - connective tissue builds up and capillary dynamics is disrupted

132
Q

what factors affect edema?

A

increase in HPc, Decrease in OPc, Increased capillary permeability, increased Hydrostatic pressure

133
Q

how does an increase in HPc affect edema?

A

it leads to more filtration, more fluid moves into the tissue, but there isn’t more reabsorption

134
Q

how does a decrease in OPc affect edema?

A

fluid is not moving from the tissue into the capillary, accumulates in the tissues. this is based upon the amount of plasma protiens - why starving kids have big bellies

135
Q

how does increased hydrostatic pressure affect edema?

A

thrombosis or blockages in a vein, fluid leaks into tissue to decrease pressure of vessel - increases filtration

136
Q

what causes increased capillary hydrostatic pressure

A

hypertension

137
Q

what causes decreased colloid pressure

starvation or liver damage

138
Q
