Question
Answer

🗑
What is intracellular fluid and how much in % does it account for body weight   Water contained inside the cells. 45%  
🗑
What is extracellular fluid and how much in % does it account for body weight   the water outside the cells. 15%  
🗑
Intracellular fluid is further devided into 2 other types of fluids. What are they   Interstitial fluid, and Intravascular fluid.  
🗑
What is Interstitial fluid and how much in % does it account for in body weight   The water bathing the cells. 10.5% of the body weight  
🗑
What is intravascular fluid and how much in % does it account for in body weight   The watger within the blood vessels (Plasma). 4.5%  
🗑
A solution is a mixture of what 2 things   Solute, Solvent  
🗑
What is a solvent   A fluid that does the dissolving, or the solution that contains the dissolved components.  
🗑
What is a solute   The dissolved particles contained in the solvent.  
🗑
When compounds or charges concentrated on one side of the cell membrane move across it to an area of lower concentratrion, This is referred to as   Diffusion  
🗑
When a cell uses energy to actively transport compounds across it's membrane, this is called   Active transport  
🗑
What reflects the concentration of sodium in a solution and the movement of water in relation to the sodium levels inside and outside the cell   Tonicity  
🗑
A healthy person loses approximately how much fluid from urine output, the lungs, and skin   2-2.5L  
🗑
What is defined as inadequate total systemic fluid volume   Dehydration  
🗑
What is it called when the body's total systemic fluid volume increases   Overhydration  
🗑
What are the fiv e basic types of IV fluids   Isoytonic, Hypertonic, Hypotonic, Crystalloid, colloid  
🗑
Lactated ringers should not be given to patients with liver failure becuase,   They can't metabolize the lactate  
🗑
D5W is an isotonic solution in the bag, but becomes what type of solution once administered   hypotonic  
🗑
Hypotonic solutions can cause cells to do what   Lise  
🗑
a Hypotonic solution will cause whater to what   be pulled from the vascular compartment and into the interstitial space potentially causeing cells to burst  
🗑
What is third spacing   An abnormal fluid shift into the interstitial compartment.  
🗑
What are crystalloid solutions   Dissolved crystals in water. Like sugar and salt  
🗑
What is the 3-1 replacement rule   When administering an isotonic crystalloid solution you have to replace 1ml of blood (say from blood loss) with 3ml of isotonic crystalloid solution  
🗑
Why use the 3-1 rule. What happens to 2/3 of the solution   It will leave the vascular space in about an hour  
🗑
What are the fluid bolus rates when trying to maintain profusion and LOC   20ml/kg  
🗑

🗑
The physical blockage of a vein or catheter is known as   Occlusion  
🗑
An accumulation of blood in the tissue surrounding an iv site is known as   a hematoma  
🗑
Foreign protiens capacle of producing a fever are   Pyrogens  
🗑

🗑
Contraindications to an IO are   fracture, osteoporosis, osteogenesis perfecta, bilateral knee replacements.  
🗑
