Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

metabolic alkolosis
Name the acid base related condition that can result from a loss of stomach acid as can occur during vomiting or gastric suctioning
metabolic alkalosis
Name the acid base related condition that can be caused by excessive diarrhea
metabolic acidosis
Name the acid base related condition that can result from hyperventilation due to anxiety
respiratory alkalosis
Name the acid base related condition that can result from prolonged constipation.
metabolic alkalosis
The term used to describe the transport of materials such as ions between tubule cells.
paracelluular transport
the _________ maintain the hypertonicity of the renal medulla by a mechanism known as countercurrent exchange
vasa recta
Name the of the nitrogenous waste products that are breakdown of purines.
uric acid
Category of diuretics that block the reabsorption of Na+ of the ascending end of loop of Henle. More specifically it blocks the Na+/K+/2Cl- channels (NKCC) which are cotransporter (symporter) channels in the apical cells membrane.
loop diuretics
Aquaporins are put into the apical membrane of what specific cells in response to ADH?
principle cells
Term for the extensions of the peritubular capillaries that are long vessels that parallel the loops of Henle of the nephrons
vasa recta
In the process of Tubuloglomerular feedback, as GFR decreases, ATP release from macular densa cells decreases, causing __________of the afferent arterioles
vasodilation
Part of the nephron that functions in the reabsorption of NaCl and water and contains a descending and ascending limb. More specifically it contains Na+/K+/2Cl- channels (NKCC).
loop of henle
Type of cotransport mechanism that move two or more substrates in opposite directions across the membrane.
antiport
Blood flow through both kidneys is about ______________________. Means that all the blood passes through the kidneys every 4-5 minutes
1200 mL/min
The ureters move urine from the pelvis to the urinary bladder by a process called ___________________

hypoventilation
Diabetic ketoacidosis, renal failure and aspirin toxicity can result in
metabolic acidosis
You are caring for a patient with type I diabetes and a serum BG of 450 mg/dL. What pH would you see on an ABG?
below 7.35
A patient is in metabolic acidosis d/t diabetic ketoacidosis. which signs S/S would you expect to see in this patient?
