When you are all done, you should look back over all your answers and review the ones in red. These ones in red are the ones which you needed help on.
Question: Answer: Increase urine
Question: How do work?Answer: By glomerular filtration rate and decreasing tubule reabsorption
Question: What are the of diuretics?Answer: , High Ceiling (loop), Osmotics, Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors, Potassium Sparing
Question: How do work?Answer: By decreasing the reabsorption of Mg, Na, Cl, water, carbonic acid, and K. Also, it increases the of glucose, Ca and lipids.
Question: What is the prototype for ?Answer: HCTZ
Question: What are some uses for diuretics?Answer: to treat hypertension and edema. To decrease interocular pressure and to the eye for surgery.
Question: HCTZAnswer: hydrochlorozide. The for thiazides.
Question: What is the prototype for high diuretics?Answer: /furosemide
Question: How do high /loop diuretics work?Answer: By decreasing of Ca, Na and Cl.
Question: What are they key of thiazides?Answer: They are not a strong diuretic, they take 2 hours to start working, they can be used to treat hypercalcemia in the urine, they are a poor choice to use on diabetics and risk of allergy in who are allergic to sulfonamides.
Question: What are adverse effects of diuretics?Answer: hypotension, fluid deficit, hypokalemia, hyponatrimia,
Question: What are some causes of ?Answer: heart failure, failure, poor circulation
Question: PolyureaAnswer: large urine
Question: OligureaAnswer: small output
Question: Answer: no output
Question: EdemaAnswer: excessive in the tissues
Question: HypokalemiaAnswer: low levels of serum
Question: How is mannitol/Osmitrol ?Answer: By IV
Question: /OsmitrolAnswer: diuretic
Question: Why would you need to monitor hr and when using potassium sparing diuretics?Answer: abnormal potassium affects the conduction of nerve impulses and myocardial contraction
Question: How do potassium diurectics work?Answer: Promotes the loss of sodium and potassium
Question: What is a risk with using an diuretic?Answer: hypervolemia then
Question: What are the key of high ceiling diuretics?Answer: stronger/faster onset of action, sodium restriction is often needed, hypercalcemia, is ototoxic
Question: Which diuretic would you use to treat anuria, increased IOP, and/or ?Answer: diuretics
Question: /AldactoneAnswer: potassium sparing
Question: Explain how osmotic diuretics affect the blood Answer: fluid is drawn from the tissues into the blood, as the blood filters through the kidneys, is excreted. If too much water is excreted then hypovalemia can occur.
Question: How do carbonic inhibitors work?Answer: by inhibiting bicarbonate reabsorption and by production of aqueous humor and cerebrospinal fluid
Question: What is the for the osmotic diuretic?Answer: /Osmitrol
Question: What are uses for osmotic diurectics?Answer: Used to anuria, increased IOP, and edema
Question: How do diuretics work?Answer: By increasing osmotic pressure in blood and in the filtrate.
Question: What are the key of potassium sparing diuretics?Answer: There is the potential for hyperkalemia, supplements are not needed, monitor hr and rhythm.
Question: What is the potassium diuretic?Answer: /Aldactone
Question: Why is a sodium restriction needed in conjunction with use of a high diuretic?Answer: post-diuretic effect
Question: /LasixAnswer: high (loop) diuretic
Question: why are a poor choice as a diuretic for pts w/diabetes?Answer: b/c it increases serum and lipids
Question: Why are thiazides in treating elevated urine calcium?Answer: B/c it increases of Ca. (meaning less Ca in the urine!)
Question: Carbonic anhydrase prototype?Answer: /Diamox
Question: What are the key points of carbonic anhydrase ?Answer: Reduces IOP and ICP (intercranial )also decreases blood pH.
Question: When your pt is on what do you need to monitor?Answer: I&O, weight, edema, serum electrolytes, neuromuscular status, glucose and mental status.
Question: When your pt is on a diuretic, what you see on thier I&O?Answer: output should be higher than
Question: What is the best for detecting fluid loss or gain?Answer: daily
Question: Where is most prevalent?Answer: ankles, on the back (when pt is on bed rest). And auscultation of the lungs may reveal edema.
Question: Serum glucose is most likely to be affected by which type of ?Answer:
Question: assessment of reflexes and muscle tone may be indicative of ____. This is important b/c _____.Answer: electrolyte imbalance; conduction and muscle activity depend on specific concentrations of electrolytes.
Question: cerebral edema causes ______.Answer: or decreased alertness.
Question: What are signs of ?Answer: hypotension, , dry mucous membranes and concentrated urine.
Question: What are of hypokalemia?Answer: pulse, hypotension, weak respirations, muscle weakness, and abdominal distention.
Question: What do you need to know administering potassium?Answer: always and give slowly
Question: In a pt w/hyponatremia, what you assess for?Answer: Hypotension, , oliguria, confusion, and abdominal cramps.
Question: In a pt w/hypocalcemia what you assess for?Answer: neuromuscular
Question: In a pt w/hypercalcemia what you assess for?Answer: neuromuscular function
Question: What do you need to do to hypocalcemia?Answer: provide Ca as
Question: How do you treat ?Answer: fluids to prevent urinary stones, administer a high ceiling diuretic as ordered
Question: What you include in pt teaching about diuretics?Answer: take diuretics in the morning, report muscle weakness, palpations, cramps, confusion, reduce sodium intake (as ordered), salt subtitutes contain potassium
Question: /DiamoxAnswer: anhydrase inhibitor
Question: Which group of pts are at higher risk for sodium ?Answer: the
