🗑
What fluid types make up 60% of an adults body fluid?   Intracellular fluid, interstitial fluid, and plasma volume  
🗑
What are the Fluid location terminology by reference point for cells, blood vessels, and tissues   Cells: ICF, ECF

🗑
Dehydration leads to disturbance in balance between amount of ___in ____compartment & ____ compartment
   fluid;extracellular and intracellular  
🗑
What are the three types of dehydration?   Hypertonic Hypotonic: Isotonic:  
🗑
Hypertonic definiton is….   fluid moves out of cells, dehydrating the cells (eg., fever with perspiration)  
🗑
Hypotonic definition is...   fluid moves into cells (loss of salt > loss of water)  
🗑
Isotonic definition   decrease in volume of ECF (loss of Na & water from body, eg., diarrhea & vomiting)
  
🗑
Crystalloids are fluids given by ____injection   I.V.  
🗑
Crystalloids supply____ & _____to maintain the osmotic gradient between the extravascular and intravascular compartments
   water and sodium  
🗑
What are four types of crystalloids?   Normal Saline Lactated Ringer’s D5W Plasma-Lyte  
🗑
Normal Saline Lactated Ringer’s D5W Plasma-Lyte   May be: Isotonic (0.9% normal saline) Hypotonic (0.45% NS) Hypertonic (10% D5W) Electrolytes (LR, PL)  
🗑
An isotonic solution is one in which normal body cells can be placed without causing either ____ or ____ of cells   shrinkage or swelling  
🗑
A ____solution will cause cells to shrink   hypertonic  
🗑
Colloids are large protein particles that ______out of the blood vessels   cannot leak  
🗑
Higher concentration of colloid solutes inside blood vessels than outside the blood vessels; fluid moves ____this hypertonic area in an attempt to make it ____   toward ; isotonic  
🗑
Administer ___ by _____ slowly & cautiously to prevent fluid overload and heart failure

🗑
What is Hypokalemia?   lethargy, mental confusion, muscle weakness, nausea (Tx: Potassium Supplements)  
🗑
What is Hyperkalemia?   red flushed skin, dry mucus membranes, thirst, decreased urination, cardiac rhythm irregularities (Tx: Kayexalate)  
🗑
NEVER give undiluted ____ – because it can result in ventricular fibrillation & cardiac arrest   potassium chloride  
🗑
NEVER give potassium ____ or ____   IV push; IV bolus  
🗑
What is the usual dose of potassium?   Usual dose is 40 mEq K+/1000 mL fluid at a rate not to exceed 20 mEq/hour
