2 basic fluid compartnemtns Correct Answers extracellular and
intracellular body fluid compartments
a/an - Correct Answers prefix meaning without
ab- Correct Answers prefix meaing from, away from, off
ABG Correct Answers arterial blood gas - a measure of
oxygenation & acid/base balance in the blood
-some of measurements are actually gases, PCO2 and PO2.
-metabolic issues focus on two measurements that aren't gases -
pH and HCO3
,abnormal cellular accumulations Correct Answers when
substances accumulate in the cells pathologically, they can
interfere with normal cellular functions & ultimately cause cell
injury i.e. lipids - fatty liver from dz processes such as
alcoholism
urates (aka uric acid) - gout
acidosis Correct Answers a state of greater-than-usual
concentration of acidic substances in the blood and cells
acidosis Correct Answers measured as part of ABG- arterial
blood gases, acidosis exists when the blood pH <7.35
-body needs narrow range of slighty alkaline to counteract an
overall tendency of metabolic activities towards acidosis, which
is a state not well tolerated by the body
-S&S - headache, disorientation, nausea, vomiting, muscle pain,
cramps, shortness of breath, low blood pressure, shock, organ
failure, death
types of acidosis -metabolic and respiratory
acute ischemia Correct Answers hypoxia to tissues from
sudden lack of blood supply
i.e. arterial embolus - clot that travels in the arteries until it
suddenly gets lodged in a smaller blood vessel (arteriole or
capillary)-->distal tissues quickly become hypoxic
sickle cell crisis: abnormally shaped RBCs get stuck in
capillaries & decreases blood supply to joings -->ischemia---
>ischemic pain
, acute S&S Correct Answers fairly rapid appearance of S&S of
dz (over a day to several days); usually only last a short time
(i.e. "The patient had an acute URI that resolved within a few
days)
-also can mean increase in severity ("The acuity of the patient's
URA increased and he had to be hospitalized")
ad- Correct Answers prefix meaning increase, adherence,
toward
aer- Correct Answers prefix meaning the air or gas
alkalosis Correct Answers clincially considered alkalosis when
blood ph >7.45, alkalosis is much less common abnormality
than acidosis, though both can be serious
types of alkalosis - metabolic and respiratory
alterations in cellular-level function Correct Answers -many
normal daily changes in body homeostasis can affect the
metabolic pathway (upon which we depend for energy in the
form of ATP), and usually the body can adjust & maintain
equilibrium
-but there are also problems that more seriously disrupt
homeostasis of cellular metabolism and the provision of ATP for
body needs, it is more difficult for the body to adjust & return to
equilbrium in these cases
