Calculate the renal plasma flow of a pt given the data below:
Effective Renal Plasma Flow ........... 585 ml/min
Uncorrected measured Hct ............. 45%
Renal Extraction of PAH ................. 1.0 (assume)
(i.e. 100% of PAH is removed from the plasma by the kidney in a single passage)
Renal Plasma Flow (ml/min) ?
Effective Renal Plasma Flow ........... 585 ml/min
Uncorrected measured Hct ............. 45%
Renal Extraction of PAH ................. 1.0 (assume)
(i.e. 100% of PAH is removed from the plasma by the kidney in a single passage)
Renal Plasma Flow (ml/min) ?
