It is a well-known fact that long-term alcohol abuse can affect the liver and cause it to fail. But did you know that other organs, such as the heart, are also at risk when it comes to long-term effects of alcohol use and abuse? Alcohol use can lead to a heart condition called alcoholic cardiomyopathy, which has the potential to progress and lead to congestive heart failure if left untreated.
Answer:
Diuretics will remove water from the blood and eliminate it in the urine. Consequently, water will move from the peritoneal cavity into the bloodstream reducing her ascites.
•The mechanism of action of diuretics are
o Osmotic diuretics are substances that are not reabsorbed or that exceed the ability of the tubule to reabsorb it, which increases osmolarity of the urine, and causes water to be drawn into the urine from the ISF.
o Loop diuretics (Lasix) inhibit symporters in the loop of Henle by diminishing sodium chloride uptake. They reduce the normal hyperosmolality of the medullary interstitial fluid, reducing the effects of ADH, resulting in loss of NaCl and water.
o Thiazides act on the distal convoluted tubule to inhibit water reabsorption.
•Her diet is salt-restricted because if salt content in the blood is high, it will cause her to retain water rather than allowing her to eliminate it.
