| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| An animal with decreased skin turgor, eyes sunken into its orbits, prolonged CRT, and dry mucous membranes is what % dehydrated? | 9-12% |
| The amount of fluid needed by an adult dog not losing extra fluid due to disease is? | 50-60 mL/kg/day |
| Which agent could cause sloughing of the skin if given subcutaneously?? | dextrose solutions with a concentration of higher than 2% |
| IV catheters can be maintained for ___ days? | 3-5 |
| Examples of synthetic colloids include ___________ & _____________? | Hetastarch and Oxyglobin |
| True or false? The hemodynamic effects of colloids last longer than those of crystalloids? | TRUE |
| True or false? Approximately 25% of colloid fluids remain in the vascular space after 1 hr | TRUE |
| True or false? Crystalloids are more expensive than colloids? | FALSE |
| True or false? Crystalloids are primarily isotonic and contain primarily water and sodium | TRUE |
| Calculate the replacement fluid volume for a 12 lb cat that is 5% dehydrated | approximately 270mL |
| Define Isotonic fluids | equal osmotic pressure to blood |
| Hypertonic | greater osmotic pressure than blood |
| hypotonic | less osmotic pressure than blood |
| What type of fluid flows into cells (intracellular) from circulation (extracellular)? | Hypotonic |
| What type pulls fluid from the cells (intracellular)into circulation ( extracellular space )? | hypertonic |
| What type of fluid maintains equilibrium? | isotonic |
| Define on going losses | Refers to excessive vomiting and/or diarrhea (estimated volume of loss multiplied by 2) = ongoing loss |
| A body is approximately_________% water. | 60-70% |
| Of that approximately 1/3 is located where? | extra cellular |
| Of the 60-70% of water the body is made of 2/3 ia located Where? | intra-cellular |
| __________ is the movement of water through a semipermeable membrane? | osmosis |
| to correct dehydration one must figure the daily maintence requirement of the animal and then add ____________ and __________- to determine total fluid replacement volume | ongoing losses and deficit volume |
| Subcutaneous fluid administration is a good choice for animals that are _____________ dehydrated? | mildly |
| Dry oral mucous membranes but NO panting or pathological tachycardia is a sign of ______% of dehydration | 5$ |
| Marked loss of skin turgor, dry oral mucous membranes and significant signs of shock are all signs of ___% of dehydration? | 12% |
| list 3 signs of over hydration | 1.Pulmonary edema, increase in respiratory rate, 2.Swelling of conjunctiva, feet, trunk, or chin. 3. Generalized swelling of SQ tissue |
