Acid-Related Pathophysiology

 The stomach secretes:
 Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
 Bicarbonate
 Pepsinogen
 Intrinsic factor
 Mucus
 Prostaglandins

Glands of the
Stomach

 Cardiac
 Pyloric
 Gastric
 The cells of the gastric gland are the largest in number
and of primary importance when discussing acid
control

Cells of the Gastric
Gland

 Parietal
 Chief
 Mucous
 Endocrine
 Enterochromaffin
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier

Cells of the Gastric
Gland (cont’d)
6
 Parietal cells
 Produce and secrete HCl
 Primary site of action for many of the drugs used to
treat acid-related disorders

Parietal Cell Stimulation and Secretion

Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Cells of the Gastric
Gland
8
 Chief cells
 Secrete pepsinogen, a proenzyme
 Pepsinogen becomes pepsin when activated by
exposure to acid
 Pepsin breaks down proteins (proteolytic)
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Cells of the Gastric
Gland (cont’d)
9
 Mucous cells
 Mucus-secreting cells (surface epithelial cells)
 Provide a protective mucus coat
 Protect against self-digestion by HCl and digestive
enzymes
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Hydrochloric
Acid
10
 Secreted by parietal cells when stimulated by
food, caffeine, chocolate, and alcohol
 Maintains stomach at pH of 1 to 4
 Acidity aids in the proper digestion of food and
defenses against microbial infection via the GI
tract
 Secretion also stimulated by:
Large fatty meals
 Emotional stress

Acid-Related
Diseases
11
 Peptic ulcer disease (PUD)
 Gastric or duodenal ulcers that involve digestion of the
GI mucosa by the enzyme pepsin
 Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)
 Bacterium found in GI tract of 90% of patients with
duodenal ulcers and 70% of those with gastric ulcers
 First-line therapy includes a 10- to 14-day course of a
proton pump inhibitor and antibiotics

Acid-Related Diseases
(cont’d)
12
 Stress-related mucosal damage
 GI lesions are a common finding in ICU patients,
especially within the first 24 hours after admission
 Factors include decreased blood flow, mucosal
ischemia, hypoperfusion, and reperfusion injury
 Nasogastric (NG) tubes and ventilators predispose
patients to GI bleeding
 A histamine receptor–blocking drug or a proton pump
inhibitor are given for prevention

Types of Acid-Controlling
Drugs
13
 Antacids
 H2 antagonists
 Proton pump inhibitors
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids
14
 Basic compounds used to neutralize stomach
acid
 Salts of aluminum, magnesium, calcium, and/or
sodium
 Many antacid preparations also contain the
antiflatulent (antigas) drug simethicone
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Mechanism
of Action
15
 Do not prevent the overproduction of acid but
instead help to neutralize acid secretions
 Promote gastric mucosal defensive mechanisms
 Stimulate secretion of:
Mucus: protective barrier against HCl
 Bicarbonate: helps buffer acidic properties of HCl
 Prostaglandins: prevent activation of proton pump

Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Drug
Effects
16
 Reduction of pain associated with acid-related
disorders
Raising gastric pH 1 point (1.3 to 2.3) neutralizes 90%
of the gastric acid
 Reducing acidity reduces pain as a result of:

Base-mediated inhibition of the protein-digesting ability of
pepsin
 Increase in the resistance of the stomach lining to irritation
 Increase in the tone of the cardiac sphincter


 Magnesium salts
 Calcium salts
 Sodium bicarbonate
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Aluminum
Salts
19
 Have constipating effects
 Often used with magnesium to counteract
constipation

disease (more easily excreted)
 Examples

 Hydroxide salt: AlternaGEL
 Combination products (aluminum and magnesium):
Gaviscon, Maalox, Mylanta, Di-Gel

Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier

Antacids: Magnesium
Salts
20
 Commonly cause diarrhea; usually used with
other drugs to counteract this effect
 Dangerous when used with renal failure—the
failing kidney cannot excrete extra magnesium,
resulting in accumulation
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Magnesium
Salts (cont’d)
21
 Examples
 Hydroxide salt: magnesium hydroxide (Milk of
Magnesia)
 Carbonate salt: Gaviscon (also a combination product)
 Combination products such as Maalox, Mylanta
(aluminum and magnesium)
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Calcium
Salts
22
 Many forms, but carbonate is most common
 May cause constipation, kidney stones
 Also not recommended for patients with renal
disease—may accumulate to toxic levels
 Long duration of acid action—may cause
increased gastric acid secretion (hyperacidity
rebound)
 Often advertised as an extra source of dietary
calcium

Example: Tums (calcium carbonate)
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Antacids: Sodium
Bicarbonate
23
 Highly soluble
 Buffers the acidic properties of HCl
 Quick onset, but short duration
 May cause metabolic alkalosis
 Sodium content may cause problems in patients
with heart failure, hypertension, or renal
insufficiency
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Classroom Response Question

medication is the best choice for this patient?
A. A magnesium-containing antacid
B. A calcium-containing antacid
C. An aluminum-containing antacid
D. Because of renal problems, the patient should not

(cont’d)
28
 Increased stomach pH
 Increased absorption of basic drugs
 Decreased absorption of acidic drugs

that require an acidic GI environment for absorption
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
H2 Antagonists: Drug34 Interactions (cont’d)

B. A proton pump inhibitor
C. An H2 antagonist
D. A mucosal protectant
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier

Proton Pump Inhibitors
(PPIs)
36
 The parietal cells release positive hydrogen ions
(protons) during HCl production
 This process is called the proton pump
 H2 blockers and antihistamines do not stop the
action of this pump
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Proton Pump Inhibitors
37
 lansoprazole (Prevacid)
 omeprazole (Prilosec)
 rabeprazole (AcipHex)
 pantoprazole (Protonix)
 esomeprazole (Nexium)
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Proton Pump Inhibitors:
Mechanism
38 of Action
 Irreversibly bind to H+/K+ ATPase enzyme
 This bond prevents the movement of hydrogen
ions from the parietal cell into the stomach
 Results in achlorhydria—ALL gastric acid
secretion is temporarily blocked

To return to normal acid secretion, the parietal cell
must synthesize new H+/K+ ATPase

 Attracted to and binds to the base of ulcers and
erosions, forming a protective barrier over these
areas
 Protects these areas from pepsin, which normally
breaks down proteins (making ulcers worse)
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Sucralfate (Carafate)
(cont’d)
43
 Little absorption from the gut
 May cause constipation, nausea, and dry mouth

renal failure to reduce phosphate levels
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Misoprostol
44 (Cytotec)
 Prostaglandin E analog
 Prostaglandins have cytoprotective activity
 Protect gastric mucosa from injury by enhancing local
production of mucus or bicarbonate
 Promote local cell regeneration
 Help to maintain mucosal blood flow
Copyright © 2014 by Mosby, an imprint of Elsevier
Inc.
Misoprostol (Cytotec)
(cont’d)
45
 Used for prevention of NSAID-induced gastric
ulcers
 Doses that are therapeutic enough to treat
duodenal ulcers often produce abdominal
cramps, diarrhea

Inc.
Simethicone
46
 Antiflatulent drug
 Used to reduce the discomforts of gastric or
intestinal gas (flatulence)

Nursing Implications:
Antacids (cont’d)
51
 Long-term self-medication with antacids may
mask symptoms of serious underlying diseases,
such as malignancy or bleeding ulcers
