| hypotonic soln | hydrates cells- can decrease serum osmolality s/e-hypotension, ^ICP, anasarca .45% NaCl (half), 2.5% D5W |
| Hypertonic soln | can increase serum osmo. for pitting edema (pull out of cells), s/e-cell dehydrate, circulatory overload. 3% NaCl, D5NR, D5LR etc |
| Isotonic soln | 0.9% NaCl, LR, D5W - fill up blood space. s/e-volume overload |
| dextrose soln | start as isotonic--> hypotonic |
| D5W | used for KVO status, mixing some meds OR if hypotonic effect is desired |
| LR | don't use in alkalotic conditions |
| IV infusion (IV drip) | continuous dose at set rate, check for compatability, gradual response. ex- Heparin, theophylline, reg insulin, dopamine, KCl |
| IV Bolus (IVB) | diluted dose of IV med given over time 5 min-60/90 min. may be called loading dose. prior to IV infusion. flush line before and after as needed, quick response, ex- theophylline, antibiotics, zantac, amiodarone, dilantin, KCL-cautious guidelines |
| IV push (IVP) | small undiluted dose of IV med injected into cath over 5 min or less. Flush line before and after. immediate response. Ex-lasix, dig, morphine, reg insulin, heparin, solumedrol, dextrose 50%, epinephrine, atropine, dilantin |
| BUN | 10-20 |
| creatinine | 0.7-1.4 |
| serum osmolarity | 275-295 (increased = alot of water - not a lot of particles. decreased = little water and lots of particles) |
