in the absence of aldosterone related pathology, describe the TTKG in hypokalemia
Back
10%
Front
normal FEK+
Back
ENaC, Na/K ATPase
Front
what 2 channels does Aldosterone directly upregulate?
Back
prevent hypoglycemia
Front
in a patient w/ hyperK+, why administer glucose prior to admin IV insulin?
Back
H+/K+ exchanger; H+ moves in/out according to gradient and K+ is exchanged
(be able to connect this concept to why organic acidosis effects no change in [K+])
Front
through what channel does alkalosis and acidosis effect transcellular shifts in [K+]? how?
Back
Flat P, prolonged PR, Wide QRS, Peaked T
Front
describe EKG changes assocd w/ HyperK+
Back
proportion of the filtered load that is excreted
Front
what is fractional excretion?
Back
dec Na/K ATPase activity
Front
what effect does hypoK+ have on Na/K ATPase
Back
osmotic diuresis -> high flow rate + high Na+ delivery -> increased K+ secretion -> hypoK+
Front
how does uncontrolled DM effect [K+] secretion
Back
AR inherited mutation effecting a malfunctioning NaCl symporter in DCT (thiazide diuretic sensitive channel)
Front
describe Gitelman Syndrome
Back
mutation effecting a malfunctioning NKCC cotransporter in the TAL (loop diuretic sensitive channel)
Front
describe Bartter syndrome
Back
improper aldosterone response retaining K+ in the presence of hyperK+
Front
what does hyperK+ w/ a low FEK+ (<10%) indicate
Back
K+ loss is extrarenal (proper renal function)
Front
what does hypoK+ w/ a low FEK+ (<10%) indicate?
Back
no change in [K+]
Front
what effect does organic acidosis (lactic acidosis, ketoacidosis) have on [K+]
