1. What is the fx and what are the - responsible for the transport, storage, and elimination
of structures of the lower urinary urine from the body
tract? Structures
• Ureters: collect urine and transport to
bladder
• Bladder: stores and expels urine to urethra
• Urethra: urine exits the body
• Associated urinary sphincters: relaxation
aids voiding
2. What is the physiology of mic- 1. pontine micturition center (in Pons; brain) coordinates
turition? relaxation of the internal sphincter and contraction of the
bladder to enable urination.
,2. cerebral cortex primarily inhibits the process through conscious control of the external sphincter.
3. What are the mechanics of micturition? - internal sphincter: bladder is prevented from
emptying until the pressure in the body of the
bladder rises above a specific threshold.
- external sphincter: allows voluntary
emptying of the bladder or the prevention of
urination
4. What are the S/S of acute herpetic - fever
gingivo-stomatitis?
- pharyngitis: sore throat, from viral and
bacterial infections. - prodromal tingling and
itching: itching and tingling in the area BEFORE it
breaks out.
- vesicles on erythematous base that rupture,
leaving a painful ulcer
5. What are patho mechanisms r/t Osmotic diarrhea:
increased amounts of poorly absorbed solutes in the
intestine.
, 6. Secretory
What are patho mechanisms r/t diarrhea: caused by toxins that stimulate intestinal fluid secretion and
impair absorption; may lose 1 L or more a day.
7. What are patho mechanisms r/t Exudative
(mucus, blood, protein) diarrhea: results from
inflammatory processes like Crohn's or UC.
8. What are patho mechanisms r/t Motility
disturbances diarrhea: decreased transit time of
chyme with the absorptive surfaces.
9. What are risk factors for inconti- BMI >25
nence? Prostate enlargement
Aging
Multipara moms
Diuretics
