Calcitrol let's gut absorb calcium
Failing kidney makes less calcitriol
Gut absorbs less calcium, lower Ca in blood
Drop in Ca tells parathyroid to release PTH
PTH steals Ca from bones to keep blood in balance
Since no calcitriol, glands continue to make PTH
Gland eventually grows so large it's unable to shut off
During in center HD how much blood is outside of body at a

magnesium without forming solids so we
dilute with water

Bicarb

Magnesium
Potassium

Blood to keep to
much water from diffusing across
membrane.
What does potassium in dialysate do - ANSWER -Helps bring
patient to normal
plasma
levels
What does magnesium do in dialysate - ANSWER -Triggers
