Cards

Term
What are the osmotic forces
Definition
Electrolytes, albumin- oncotic
Term
Contributors to edema
Definition
Osmototic pressure, hydrostatic pressure
Term
what are some extracellular fluids
Definition

interstitial between and around cells

intravascular

Transcellulat- organ secretion

Term
electrolytes
Definition
substances or compounds that when dissolved in water dissociate into positvely and negatively charged ions (cations and anions)
Term
what cation is in the interestial and intercellular fluid
Definition
Na+ out/ K in 
Term
what are some ways yhat fluid and electrolytes move
Definition
osmosis, filtration
Term
what are the types of pressure
Definition

osmotic

hydrostatic

Term
what are the factors influecing water distribution
Definition

membrane solubility

solutes- electrolytes

plasma protiens

Term
colloid oncotic pressure
Definition
pressure at the blood capilary membrane caused by protien that are in the plasma and interstitial fluids
Term
how does edema occur
Definition
low plasma protien cause water to leak from plasma to the interstitial space
Term
normal range for body fluids
Definition
280-320 mOsm/kgH20
Term
Body solutes
Definition

Electrolytes including NA K mg CL bicarbonate, phosphate, sulphate

 

Term
What are the serum levels for Sodium and Potassium
Definition

Na : 136-146 mEq/L

Pot: 3.5-5.0mEq/L

Term
Obligatory exrection
Definition
minimum fluid necessay to excrete solutes into urine.
Term
Renal Solute load includes
Definition
Urea , Na, K, Cl
Term
What does RSL determine
Definition
the minimum volume of water needed for excretion because kidneys have a limited concentrating ability
Term
Falcultative excretion:
Definition
Excretion of that fluid consumed in excess of the amount needed to excrete the RSL
Term
Fluid INtake- how is it stimulated
Definition
osmolality increases or extracellular volume decreases
Term
metabloic water
Definition
oxidation of food in the body
Term
methods for calculating liquid requirements 
Definition

1mL of fluid per kcal

average adult is about 30-35mL

Term
physiological regulation of fluid and electrolytes
Definition

Thirst

Renal function

Hormonal influence

Term
what are the hormonal influences
Definition

liver releases angiotensinogen

kidney secrete renin which cleaves to angiotensin 1

lungs secrete ACE which turns it into angiotensin 2

a2 drive thirst vasopression and vasoconstriction and stimulates the adrenal cortex

the Adrenal cortex secretes aldosterone which then inturn influences the kidney to retain fluids

Term
what does vasopressin do
Definition

^ h2o permeability of distal tube. so more water is absorbed and there is less urine output 

increse in plasma volume and lowers plasma osmolarity

drives ECF volume down and the arterial bp goes down
