Edema
• CHF
• AGN
• Nephrotic Syndrome
• Cirrhosis
Irrespective of disease, the cause of edema is always renal salt retention
John Peters – 1948
• A normal kidney retains salt in patients with CHF
• Volume must be contracted
• The kidney retains salt when volume is contracted
• It excretes salt when volume is expanded
• What is the volume compartment the kidney recognizes?
Volume Candidates
• Blood volume
• Interstitial volume
• Extracellular volume
Peters invented a volume compartment
EABV
Effective Arterial Blood Volume
• A concept not a measurable entity
• Normal EABV is that amount of arterial filling that assures adequate organ perfusion
• Its state is inferred from history, PE, and lab values
EABV
• Vomiting• Diarrhea• Sweating• Hemorrhage• CHF• Some forms of nephrotic syndrome• Cirrhosis
EABV
• History• PE – BP• Low urine Na• High uric acid• Increased BUN:Cr
CHF• CO inadequate
• Circulation underfilled
• EABV decreased
• Kidney retains salt and water
• Edema

Consequences of Primary Salt Retention
• Facial edema
• Normal Na
• Hypertension
Secondary Salt Retention
Consequences of Secondary Salt Retention
• Dependent edema
• Hyponatremia
• BP falls
• Hypokalemia
• Metabolic alkalosis
Nephrotic Syndrome – Low EABV
• Plasma volume may be reduced
• High renin
• Renal underperfusion
• Increased Na excretion after vol expansion or water immersion
• Increased SNS activity
• BP rises after remission
Nephrotic Syndrome – High EABV
• Plasma vol nl or increased
• Low renin
• No response to vol expansion
• Low FF
• BP falls after remission
Implications for Diuretic Rx
• Patients with nephritic edema will respond
• CHF – depends on Starling curve
• NS will respond if EABV is high
• Cirrhosis - rarely does any good
Conclusions
• Edema always results from renal salt retention
• Primary edema – EABV is expanded
• Secondary edema – contracted EABV cause the salt retention
