Answers (Verified Answers)|Brand
New Version Grade A+!
What are the most common causes of CKD Correct Answer: Diabetes and
Hypertension
Patients with CKD have a higher risk of what? Correct Answer: Cardiovascular
Morbidity and Mortality
Where is the Glomurelus located? Correct Answer: Bowmans Capsule
Albumin in the urine can be used to gauge what? Correct Answer: The seventy
of kidney damange in patient with kidney disease or nephropathy
What should not pass through the glomurelus; Correct Answer: Large protein
compounds, and drugs bound to albumin.
Controllng the concentration of water and Sodium is a function of which unit in
the kidney Correct Answer: Nephron.
Where are large amounts of water reabsorbed? Correct Answer: Proximal
Tubule.
How does the nephron regulate pH Correct Answer: It is regulated by exchange
of hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions.
What are part of the LOOP of Henle is permeable to water Correct Answer:
Descending Loop.
, T/F Sodium and Chloride have permeable channels in the ascending limb
Correct Answer: True.
If ADH is present what occurs? Correct Answer: More water is reabsorbed and
Urine becomes more concentration.
What is the mechanism of action for Loop Diuretics. Correct Answer: Inhibit the
Na K pump in the ascending limb of the loop of henle
Loop Diuretics work on the descending limb of hence (T/F Correct Answer: False.
What can occur if loop diuretics are used long term? Correct Answer:
Hypocalcemia.
Why does Hypocalcemia occur in Loop Diuretics. Correct Answer: Loop
Diuretics alter the electrical gradient and cause a decrease in calcium.
Where is 25% of sodium reabsorbed? Correct Answer: Ascending Limb.
What is the mechanism of Action for Thiazide diuretics? Correct Answer: Inhibit
the Na Cl pump in the distal tubule.
Why are thiazides weaker diuretics then LOOPS. Correct Answer: Because their
mechanisms of action are different and LOOPs work in the area more sodium is
reabsorbed.
Thiazide have a negative impact on bone. Correct Answer: False. They have a
positive impact on bone.
What two hormones influence the collecting ducts? Correct Answer:
Aldosterone, ADH
What is the mechanism of action for Aldosterone? Correct Answer: Increase
Sodium and water retention and decrease K.
