Millex:Total peripheral resistance impedes blood flow. There are many ways in which the body compensates for a decrease in BP, but with basically the same mechanisms. I gave an instance, as you didn't specify. Hypertension would increase renal perfusion ( BP is directly proportional to Blood volume, CO, stroke volume). 1 Like |

dasamek8:Sorry getting a first degree doesn't guarantee your entering into clinical class on admission. If you do a first degree you will need to be admitted through direct entry into 200 level, so my advice is seek direct utme admission into medicine once don't put your self through that stress, for more info on Delsu medical school you can pm me I will be there to help |

Millex, Hypotension is simply a reduction in blood pressure, and since blood pressure is a product of cardiac out and total peripheral resistance, then the causes of hypotension are many, not just from acute blood loss. In hypotension the perfusion of vital organs like the kidneys and liver are reduced, because the TPR and CO are needed to maintain adequate blood flow. The body sees hypotension as an anomaly, and hence one which must be correct. The first thing the body system does is to employ the sympathoadrenal system, this is due to a reduction in the amount of impulses sent to the medullary center from the carotid and aortic bodies , which it interprets as a decrease in blood pressure, hence it increases the amount of impulses in the sympathetic outflow to the heart, blood vessels and adrenal glands (to increase catecholamine secretion), in a bid to restore homeostasis. But if this fails to correct the blood pressure, then... The renal system now comes to the rescue. Here, the macula densa of the JGA responds to basically three stimuli (hypovolaemia, hyponatremia and increased sympathetic activity), any of which is capable of activating the renin angiotensin aldosterone -ADH system via the production of renin by the juxtaglomerular cells. The activation of the RAAS will increase fluid retention, and TPR through the vasoconstrictive effect of angiotensin 11 on the blood vessels. But, if this mechanism fails to restore the blood pressure, for instance in a decompasated heart failure... That's when you now talk about the effects it would have, not just on the kidneys and liver but on other vital organs in the body. 2 Likes |

On the kidney, prolonged hypoperfusion which is a squeal of reduced blood pressure, will first result in a decrease in the amount of urine produced (oliguria) which is more like a compensatory mechanism aimed at fluid retention. If the hypotension persists, the initial oliguric phase now moves to anuria, where no urine is produced at all, the is also aimed at fluid conservation. Also note that, the kidney needs a reasonable amount of blood supply for its normal functions, and in protracted hypotension as this, this is drastically reduced. Then after a while, the nephrons begin to die (tubular necrosis), due to the fact that they don't get enough nutrients and oxygen . Then when an appreciable number of nephrons have been lost (let's say 70%),the kidney loses its ability to conserve fluid, and the anuric phase in which no urine is produced now becomes a polyuric phase in which excessive amount of fluid is lost due to the inability of the renal to reabsorb fluid. Then the kidney fails... The same thing happens to the liver and other vital organs, if the liver doesn't get enough oxygen and nutrient due hypoperfusion secondary to hypotension, there is a gradual reduction in its synthetic functions and other sequels. But the effect on the liver is not as acute as that on the kidney, this is because unlike like the kidney that is perfused by just one artery, the renal artery. The blood supply to the liver is not restricted to a single vessel, and liver failure takes a more gradual process. Relating hypertension to the renal and hepatic system, is basically the opposite of what I have been talking about. In hypertension, there's adequate perfusion of the kidneys and RAAS is not activated. The nervous system also plays a part to reduce the blood pressure to normal by reducing sympathetic discharge. But protracted hypertension just as I explained for hypotension, has several damaging effects to all organ system, and especially the small blood vessels... Which could rupture due to excessive pressure. And in specific conditions like portal hypertension, the function of the liver is drastically affected. It all depends on what your interest is.

Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Millex(m): 6:27am On May 08, 2017 |
charleymed:Well put, just exactly what i was hoping to see.... I understand the cardiac part but havent gotten to the renal part of the story yet, we just gonna start that block in physiology, but you have demystified the second part for me. I understand that when there is hypotension, perfusion is low which leads to ischemia of the cells of kidney and liver also there would re retention of some bad proteins and toxins which would have been filtered and detoxifyed by the liver.

castrokiller:Try getting adequate sleep, drink enough water and take breaks when studying the key is to study for short periods over time, like 45 mins with 10 minutes break interval where you do any other thing.

castrokiller:I perfectly understand this feelings because I have been there too. You're not as bad as you think, it's just a feeling. All you need to do is to set a goal and try and work towards achieving it gradually, you don't need anything cognitive enhancers, all you need is renewer of mind.

Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by DavidHunds(m): 12:59am On May 09, 2017 |
esivue007:Talking about cost? I guess you mean fees? That's 25k now ,at least for 100L,subsequent fees aren't significantly different too No, you won't remain in Ojo Campus after completing year 1,you'd move to the teaching hospital. About the medical texts, I'd advise you focus on transition for now ,as you don't need any of that for year 1 All the best 2 Likes |
