Fluid Balance Test

Fluid and Electrolytes imbalance review

TermDefinition
Intercellular (ICF) Body fluids within the cells, contains most of the body fluids about 2/3 in adults.
Extracellular (ECF) Body fluids found outside the cells about 1/3 in adults.
Intravasular fluid Body fluids found to be the plasma/blood
Interstitial fluid Body fluids found between the cells.
Third spacing Another term for fluids found between the cells.
Babies ECF > ICF and are at high risk of volume deficit.
Isotonic solution Equal distribution of water and particles.
Hypotonic Low particles with high water content.
Hypertonic High particles with low water content.
Osmosis The movement of water through a selective permeable cell membrane.
Diffusion A process by which particles move from an area of higher concentration to a lower concentration.
Active Transport Particles are moved from a lower concentratrion to a higher conentration with the use of energy.
Hydrostatic Pressure The force of fluid pressing outward against the vessel walls.
Colloid Osmotic Pressure The pulling force exerted by colloids(proteins) in a solution.
Arteral Capillaries HP>OP and fluids are pushed out.
Venous Capillaries OP>HP and fluids are pulled into
Infants TBW 70% of fluids
Adult males TBW 60% of fluids
Adult females TBW 50% of fluids
Fat Content Women have greater 5 of body fat than men.
Elderly TBW Have more fat and less water, 40% - 45%
NewBorns TBW Have less fat and more water.
TBW Is determined by intake and output of fluids.
Healthy adults/infants Daily water requirement is 1500 ml of body surface area.
Drinking sources 1400-1800 ml/per day
Foods sources 700-1000 ml/per day
Total daily intake source 2400-3200 ml/per day
Oxidative metabolism 300-400 ml/per day
Sensible water loss Measurable loss, person is aware: Urine, defication, wounds
Defication water loss 100-200 ml/per day
Diarrhea water loss 500 ml/per day
Urine water loss 1-2 L daily/ 1ml/per hr
Insensible water loss Difficult to measure, unaware:Lungs, Skin(sweating)
Avg daily insensible water loss 500-1000 ml/per day
Total insensible water loss 2400-3200 ml/day
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Energy used to given to particles to move against a concentration gradient.
Thirst Occurs with 2% water loss, stimulated by <ECF
Kidneys Key role in fluid&electrolyte balance and regulation of ECF volume.
Increase ECF Increase urine ecrection by the kidneys
Decrease ECF Decrease urine excreation by the kidneys
Pituitary Gland Regulate the release of antidiurectic hormone (ADH)
Antidiuretic Hormone(ADH) Called water conserving hormone: reabsorption of water.
Inc secretion of ADH Inc water retention
Dec secretion of ADH Dec water retention
ADH regulated by High plasma osmolality, hypotension, volume depletion
SIADH disorder Excessive ADH secrection equals excessive water retention
Water 60% in our body where in infants there is 70%
Lose electrolytes by; - vomitting, diarrhea
Fatality If we lose morse than 20% of body fluids
ICF Fluids inside the cell
ECF Fluids outside cell
Intravascular Fluids within the vessel
Glucose Nonelectrolyte- doesnt dissolve in solutions
Electrolytes Dissolve in water and carry a charge (anion or cation)
Na+ (sodium) Found in the interstitial space
K+ (potassium) Found in the intracellular space
Osmotic Pressure The force that drives osmosis
Hypothalamus It drives your thirst (your fluid replacement is unconscious)
Obligatory loss of water through sweating
GI tract Function Location that water and fluid absorbed
Kidneys Function The role in regulation of fluids and electrolytes
Weight daily Most accurate way to measure intake/output
ADH Secreted from the posterior puituitary gland/ adrenal cortex
Diaphoresis Profuse sweating
Osmolarity/Osmality Both measure the conc. of the solution
Fluid Output Kidneys, Skin, Lungs, and GI Tract
1st spacing Normal dist. of fluid
2nd spacing Abnormal. dist/ or accumulation of fluid (edema)
3rd spacing Fluid is trapped (ascites)
