Renal Pharmacology, USMLE (8:20)
This video talks you through the text in First Aid for the USMLE Step 1, 2012 edition. The narrator goes further than reading and provides explanations for each item discussed. This is a great video to review the pharmacology related to the renal system in under 10 minutes.
Diuretics, mochoc15- AH 209 Pharmacology for Allied Health (17:12)
This video is well organized and covers a variety of points within 20 minutes to provide a clear understanding of how diuretics work. It starts with objectives, which help focus and preview what you will learn in the video. The short lecture starts with reviewing renal function and then goes on to discuss how diuretics work with diagrams. It covers osmotic diuretics, thiazide, and thiazide-like diuretics. Finally, the video works through a clinical case reviewing what was learned.
Diuretics and Antihypertensives, Paul Bolin (20:22)
The video covers drugs relevant to hypertension and nephrology. it describes the effects of four types of diuretics: thiazide diuretics, loop diuretics, potassium-sparing diuretics, and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. In each description, examples of drug names, when the drug is used, adverse effects, and contraindications. The mechanism through which the drugs work are discussed using handdrawn images. In addition, the video talks about ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta blockers, alpha blockers, and calcium channel blockers.
Pharmacology - Diuretics, Armando Hasudungan (16:39)
The video describes how the four types of diuretics work. Using a drawing of the nephron, the exact location where the drugs act are covered. The descriptions then go further to describe what transporters or channels are affected through drawings and narration. The detail provided in this video is incredibly helpful to gain a thorough understanding on how the diuretics work.
Physiology & Pharmacology Of The Proximal Convoluted Tubule, USMLESuccessAcademy (6:26)
Physiology & Pharmacology Of The Distal Convoluted Tubule, USMLESuccessAcademy (7:26)
Physiology & Pharmacology Of The Collecting Ducts, USMLESuccessAcademy (9:41)
This channel provides a series of videos on the pharmacology related to the renal system. The focus on the videos is on the mechanism of action, through drawings on the slides. it does a great job discussing the why. Why the contraindications are what they are, why certain people need extra caution if taking a medication. The videos also provide helpful mnemonics to help you learn the material even faster.
