Hypotonic Solution examples | show 🗑
|

Crystalloids examples | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Used to provide calories for energy, reduce catabolism of protein, and reduce protein breakdown of glucose to help prevent a negative nitrogen balance.

show | Vein irritation! rapid infusion of 5% in dextrose in water causes Hyponatremic encephalopathy with (especially in premenopausal women) Solutions of 20 – 70% can act like osmotic diuretic if administered too rapidly Transient hyper-insulin reaction
🗑
|
||||
show | 0.9% often referred to as “normal saline”; uses: treatment of shock, hyponatremia, given with blood transfusions, resuscitation, fluid challenges, metabolic alkalosis hypercalcemia, and fluid replacement in diabetic ketoacidosis.

show | Ringer’s solutions Lactated Ringer’s
🗑
|
||||
show | Similar to .9%; Treatment of any type of dehydration; Use for patients with liver disease who are unable to metabolize lactate
🗑
|

Ringer’s Solution advantages | show 🗑
|
||||
Ringer's solution disadvantages | show 🗑
|
||||
show | AKA Hartmann’s solution; Most commonly prescribed balanced solution Electrolyte concentration closely resembling ECF compartment; used for Restoring fluid volume deficits Replacing fluid lost due to burns, vomiting, and diarrhea; Treating mild metabolic

Albumin advantages | show 🗑
|
||||
Albumin disadvantages | show 🗑
|
||||
show | polysaccharide that behaves as a colloid Used as plasma volume expanders; Used as adjunct in treatment of impending shock or shock states Expands volume by once or twice its own volume Improves microcirculation
🗑
|
||||
Dextran advantages | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Possibility of hypersensitivity reactions Increased risk of bleeding Circulatory overload For IV use only
🗑
|
||||
show | Synthetic colloid made from starch and is similar to human albumin Use for the prevention and treatment of critically low blood volume
