Episode 11 - The Glomerulus & Glomerular filtration rate
September 09, 2017 21:48 - 1 hour - 58.8 MBOur kidneys need to filter 120mL per minute (or 180L per day) of blood in order to maintain the appropriate amount of salts, pH, waste, and other components in the blood. The glomerulus is the filter that decides what can and cannot get filtered. If this membrane is damaged or disrupted, patient health can rapidly decline. What is the glomerulus? How does it work? How can it be damaged? What are some diseases of the glomerulus?

Episode 10 - Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System (RAAS)
September 03, 2017 03:39 - 35 minutes - 32.8 MBDid you know that our kidneys control our blood pressure? It does this so it can continually create 180 litres of filtered blood every day to keep us healthy! The system that the kidneys use to control blood pressure is called the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) - it's a big name but easy to learn! Many patients with hypertension manage their blood pressure by taking medications that act upon this system! Join Dr. Matt & Dr. Mike in this episode to explore this clinically importa...
