Performance Objectives
1. Define and calculate the renal fraction of the cardiac output and the factors that influence it.
2. Know the average values for renal blood flow (RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in adult humans. Compare
blood flow and oxygen consumption in kidneys to that of skeletal muscle.
3. Define and calculate the filtration fraction.
4. Identify the extrinsic and intrinsic factors that regulate renal blood flow and renal vascular resistance. Predict changes
in RBF and GFR caused by increases in sympathetic nerve activity and increases in circulating epinephrine.
5. Identify the major sites of renal vascular resistance and describe the hydrostatic pressure profile along the renal
vasculature.
6. Describe the roles of hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressures in regulating glomerular filtration rate. Describe the
filtration barriers in the glomerular membrane. How are proteins and macromolecules restricted from passing into the
tubular fluid?
7. Given the glomerular and Bowmans space hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressures, be able to calculate the net
filtration force for glomerular filtration. Define the glomerular filtration coefficient and explain its role in determining GFR.
8. Define the phenomenon of renal autoregulation and describe the roles of tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism and
the myogenic mechanism.
9. Predict the changes in RBF and GFR caused by increased angiotensin II levels, increased prostaglandin E2 formation,
increases in nitric oxide formation and increases in renal sympathetic nerve activity.
10. Describe the changes in tubular reabsorption associated with changes in hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressure in
the peritubular capillaries.
11. Review and be prepared to discuss questions on p. 46.
