Term
Cardiac output from stroke volume and heart rate. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Mean arterial pressure from systolic and diastolic pressures |
|
Definition
MAP=[systolic + 2xdiastolic]/3 |
|
|
Term
Systemic or pulmonary vascular resistances knowing cardiac output, mean arterial pressure and venous pressure. |
|
Definition
SVR=[(MAP-CVP)x80]/CO; PVR=[MPAP-PCWP]80/CO |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Wall Tension = P x r / 2 h (h is wall thickness) |
|
|
Term
A-a PO2 gradient with use of alveolar gas equation. |
|
Definition
PAO2 = FiO2 × (barometric pressure – water vapor pressure) – PACO2/R. At sea level, barometric pressure = 760. At body temperature, alveolar water vapor pressure is 47 mm Hg. The respiratory quotient (R) is usually 0.8, FiO2=.21. PACO2 = PaCO2 |
|
|
Term
Renal clearances, including GFR. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Given the GFR, rates of solute filtration, reabsorption, secretion. |
|
Definition
Filtration rate = GFR × Pglucose; Excretion rate = V × Uglucose; Reabsorption rate = filtration rate – excretion rate |
|
|
Term
Plasma osmolality from plasma sodium, glucose and urea concentrations |
|
Definition
2 x [Na] + glucose/18 + [BUN]/2.8 |
|
|
Term
Effects adding or removing osmoles and/or water on known body fluid osmolalities and volumes |
|
Definition
Solute constant - TBW1 × [Na+]1 = TBW2 × [Na+]2; Water constant - Extra Na+ needed =TBW × ([Na+]2 - [Na+]1) |
|
|
Term
Anion gap (normal gap and whether it is increased). |
|
Definition
Na -[Cl+HCO3]; normal gap is <12 |
|
|
Term
Appropriate respiratory compensation of metabolic acidosis, using Winters’ equation |
|
Definition
1.5 x HCO3 + 8 +/- 2= predicted CO2 |
|
|
Term
Starling equation for transcapillary fluid exchange |
|
Definition
Jv = S×Lp [(Pc – Pi) – (pc – pi)]; Flux = Conductance × Driving Force |
|
|
Term
Values from 2x2 contingency tables for interpreting both treatment studies and diagnostic tests. |
|
Definition
Sensitivity - a/a+c; Specificity - d/b+d; Likelihood positive - sens/[1-spec]; likelihood negative - [1-sens]/spec; Pos Pred Value - a/a+b; Neg Pred Value - d/d+c |
