CRRT typically is used when patients develop anasarca (extreme generalized edema) or elevated blood pressure and are unable to excrete fluid or uremic wastes. v. It is the therapy chosen when periodic hemodialysis is to be avoided because rapid removal of fluid and wastes may put the kidney into a less active state causing decreased blood flow to the kidney and a delay in regaining of kidney function. vi.

a. Stress: hypermetabolic state- stress causes accelerated energy expenditure, glucose production, glucose cycling in liver and muscle i. Hyperglycemia can occur either from insulin resistance or excess glucose production via gluconeogenesis ii. muscle breakdown acceleration b. Starvation: decreased energy expenditure, use of alternative fuels, decreased protein wasting, stored glycogen used in 24 hours i. Late starvation = fatty acids, ketones, and glycerol provide energy for all tissues except brain, nervous system and RBCs

15. How is BP controlled by brain and by RAAS

a. The brain receives info from baroreceptors i. If BP is low, pituitary releases ADH (antidiuretic hormone) aka vasopressin, which is a vasoconstrictor, which helps to increase BP ii. ADH also signals to the kidneys to retain H20. b. If you have high sodium in blood from the diet → increases osmolality. It also triggers the release of ADH to tell the kidneys to retain water and this increases BP c. The kidneys also have baroreceptors . Kidney detects low BP and renin is released, which activates angiotensin 1. Angiotensin 1 goes thru lungs and ACE activates 1 to angiotensin 2. Angiotensin 2 is a vasoconstrictor. i. Angiotensin 2 also activates aldosterone in the adrenals which signals the kidneys to retain sodium and water, leading to an increase in BP.

2. What is MNT for calcium kidney stones (slide 9-11)

a. calcium- is the most common kidney stone overall i. The following foods should be avoided (contain more than 10 mg oxalate/serving): Beans, (wax, green) Spinach, Nuts and nut butters, beets ii. Striking the right balance is important for calcium. iii. 1000mg for adults 19-70, 1200mg 71+ iv. Too little calcium is a risk factor for calcium oxalate stones because there is not enough calcium going through your digestive tract to bind with oxalate and prevent its absorption. This could lead to high urine oxalate. v. Too much calcium, more than your body can use, is a risk factor for calcium stones because it could cause you to excrete excessive calcium into your urine. vi. A low fat diet (less than 50 grams per day) should be followed for individuals with fat loss in their stool. vii. Remember oxalate is a byproduct of GIT metabolism. After oxalate is formed, it normally combines with calcium to be excreted in the stool. When large amounts of unabsorbed fat are available (e.g. from fat malabsorption, ileal resections), calcium preferentially binds to fat instead of oxalate. This leaves oxalate available to be easily reabsorbed by the colon and ends up in the urinary tract. viii. Drink 2 ½ to 3 liters of fluid per day, this will lower the concentration of oxalates, >2L urine/d ix. Avoid excessive supplementation (more than 1-2 grams/day) of vitamin C as oxalate is derived from vitamin C metabolism too.

SEPSIS 1. What are key metabolic and respiratory stress changes in the body (carbs, protein, fat)

Lipolysis occurs in our adipose tissue stores, which are the fatty tissues that cushion and line our bodies and organs d. Negative nitrogen balance: associated with burns, serious tissue injuries, fevers, hyperthyroidism, wasting diseases, and during periods of fasting. This means that the amount of nitrogen excreted from the body is greater than the amount of nitrogen ingested.
