ANSWERS
renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system - Answer-compensatory process that leads to
increased blood pressure and blood volume to ensure perfusion of the kidneys;
important in the continual regulation of blood pressure
sodium; potassium; retained - Answer-Aldosterone is stimulated by the renin-
angiotensin-aldosterone-system and stimulates renal reabsorption of _________ and
excretion of ________, so that water is _____________.
Natiuretic Hormones; RAAS; decrease; sodium; water - Answer-________ are released
from atria or ventricle of heart. Work opposite of the ______ (abbrev.) to __________
blood volume by promoting urinary excretion of _________ and _________.
Tonicity - Answer-May be used interchangeably with osmolality.
Hypotonic - Answer-IV fluid that causes cell swelling
Hypertonic; increasing - Answer-__________ IV fluid causes cell shrinking by _______
the osmolality of the intravascular space.
Increased Hydrostatic Pressure - Answer-r/t venous obstruction such as hepatic
obstruction or prolonged standing, or retention of sodium and water caused by CHF or
renal failure
Decreased Oncotic Pressure - Answer-R/t decreased plasma protein production often
due to liver disease or protein malnutrition
Decreased - Answer-Oncotic pressure is ________ in trauma victims, hemorrhage,
burns, and cirrhosis of the liver.
Ansarca - Answer-Generalized edema is also known as
Carbonic Acid - Answer-Biproduct of aerobic metabolism converted from CO2
Lactic Acid - Answer-Biproduct of anaerobic metbolism of glucose
Sulfuric Acid - Answer-Byproduct of the oxidation of sulfur containing amino acids
, Phosphoric Acid - Answer-Byproduct of phosphoproteins and ribonucleotides
Ketone Bodies - Answer-Acid byproduct of fat breakdown
CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3 <--> H+ + HCO3- - Answer-bicarbonate buffer system -
represents acid base balance
Left - Answer-Side of the bicorbonate buffer system equation that occurs in the lungs
Right - Answer-Side of the bicarbonate buffer system that occurs in the kidneys
Loss; right; CO2; carbonic acid - Answer-______ of hydrogen ions results in the
equation shifting to the ______, meaning the lungs retain more ________ to convert it
into _________________.
Shift to the left - Answer-Lungs are stimulated to increase ventilation in an effort to expel
more CO2 to maintain acid base balance
Reabsorption of Bicarbonate - Answer-First line of defense against changes to acid
base balance -- occurs in the proximal tubule of the kidney
Increase; renin-angiotensis; alkalosis; Normal Saline - Answer-A deficit in the ECF
results in an ________ in the reabsorption of bicarb that stimulates the
_________________________ which stimulates further reabsorption. This leads to
metabolic ______________ secondary to volume depletion. Treatment is volume
replacement with _______________.
Hydrogen - Answer-For every _______ that is excreted there is one bicarb reabsorbed
into the blood.
HPO42-; kidneys - Answer-Hydrogen binds with _________ to be excreted from the
__________________.
Increases; decreases; acidotic - Answer-Ammonia (N4) ________ as the urine pH
_________________. This is helpful in _____________ states.
Ammonia - Answer-Most is excreted in the urine but the remaining is reabsorbed into
the interstitial fluid of the kidney to substitute for potassium.
Decreased; decreased; hypo; hyper - Answer-Pathological consequences of metabolic
acidosis: _______________ myocardial contractility, __________ cardiac output,
catecholamine resistant _______tension and ______kalemia
Lactic - Answer-Acidosis that is secondary to hypoxia
