Loop Diuretics Mnemonic for NCLEX | Mechanism of Action (How They Work), Nursing Pharmacology

Review how Loop Diuretics work, including their mechanism of action and side effects.
Study this Loop Diuretics mnemonic for NCLEX and other mnemonics with Pixorize.
Loop diuretics are a class of medications that cause diuresis, or fluid loss, by increasing urine output. They work by acting at the loop of Henle in the kidney in order to block sodium and other ions from being reabsorbed, which eventually leads to reduced water reabsorption and fluid loss in the urine. The most common loop diuretic drugs are furosemide, torsemide, and bumetanide. Loop diuretics are the most powerful diuretic drugs and are used in the clinical setting to treat fluid overload states, like pulmonary edema caused by heart failure, peripheral edema, and ascites due to cirrhosis. Potential side effects include ototoxicity and hypokalemia.

When you spelled out Torsemide in the video it did not have the S (Toremide). Also, the individual voicing over the video said that UOP should be reported if it is less than 30 mL/MINUTE.... I do believe it should be 30 mL/HOUR. I know these videos take a lot of work to put together, but maybe this ones should be redone to make it accurate?
