Hypovolemia Labs
A.
BUN = 20:1, usually 10:1, hematocrit increased, Urine specific gravity increased
B.
Symptoms: increased pulse, increased B/P, Urine output <30 ml/hr, thirst, neuro changes
C.
Replace fluids PO if not severe, Isotonic IV fluids, Anti-emetics for vomiting, Anti-diarrheals, accurate & frequent I&O
D.
Na+ replacement slowly not to exceed >12 mEq/L in 24 hrs., isotonic solution, water restriction
E.
Potassium and Sodium
F.
Almost always result of increased total body sodium
G.
BUN and hematocrit levels decreased due to plasma dilution (too much water)
H.
Na+ >145
I.
Major intracellular electrolyte, influences skeletal & cardiac muscles, 80% excreted from kidneys, 20% lost bowel & sweat
J.
Fever, tachypnea (rapid breathing), vomiting, diarrhea, gi suctioning, sweating, hemorrhage, excercising
K.
Thirst, anorexia, nausea, fatigue, muscle weakness, cramps, increased HR, increased B/P, cool, clammy skin if severe
L.
Prolonged use of tourniquet, anemia, K+ intake (salt substitutes) renal failure most common
M.
Behavioral changes in elderly
N.
condition characterized by excessive thirst and excretion of large amounts of severely diluted urine
O.
Too much insulin, insulinemia, burns, vomiting, diarrhea, NG suctioning, diuretics
P.
hydrochlorothiazide, can cause hypokalemia (potassium low) and hyponatremia (low sodium)
Q.
Renal: diuretics, Adrenal insufficiency, low aldosterone, Non renal: vomitting, diarrhea, excessive sweating, excessive water intake, hypervolemia, IV therapy, head injury
R.
42-52% male35-47% female
