Mechanical ventilation has an effect on the hormone _____________, which causes a decrease in urinary output
a. cortisol
b. arginine vasopressin
c. parathyroid hormone
d. thyroid-stimulating hormone
ANS: B
Several different types of hormones may influence urine output during mechanical ventilation. Specifically, these include ADH, atrial natriuretic factor, and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone cascade. Increases in the release of ADH, also called arginine vasopressin, from the posterior pi-tuitary can reduce urine production by inhibiting free water excretion.
