Fluid & Electrolytes Test
Enter the letter for the matching Answer
| A. severe, generalized third spacingB. renal failure, heart failure, excess fluid intake (without electrolytes), high corticosteroids, high aldosterone, plain water enema, NG irrigations, excess hypotonic IV fluids, SIADH, inappropriately prepared formula (dilute formula)C. normal to high (hemoconcentration)D. correct cause, CPT, TCDB if able, suction as needed, semi-Fowlers, fluids to thin secretions, low-flow O2 as neededE. seen with FVE, Dyspnea, tachypnea, hacking cough, crackles, o2 sat downF. releases H+ ions in waterG. chronic diarrhea, malnutrition, starvation, renal failure, DKA, trauma, shock, sepsis, fever, salicylate toxicityH. pulmonary edemaI. amount of oxygen available to bind with hemoglobin, amount of pressure exerted on O2 by plasmaJ. *normal 22-26 mEq/L (decreased in acidosis, increased in alkalosis)K. the percent of Hb saturated with O2, a calculated value (indirect measurement), calculated with pH and PaO2 (combination of O2 sat, PaO2, and Hb), indicates tissue oxygenation
L. measured as CO2M. hypoventilation, respiratory failureN. 1.002-1.030O. low CO2, pH high >7.45, bicarb normal if no compensation or decreased if compensation, hypokalemia, hypocalcemiaP. used to treat metabolic acidosis (ketoacidosis), forces potassium back into cellsQ. *negative logarithm of H+ ion concentration in mEq/L (as H+ ion concentration increases, pH decreases)
*normal values 7.35 -7.45 (less is acidotic, more is alkalotic)
R. sign of FVE but not seen in kids, make sure know baseline for adultsS. decreased temp, blood shunted to central areaT. *Concentration of anions (HCO3- , Cl-, protein, phosphate, & sulfates) and cations (Na+, K+, MG++, & Ca++)
*10-12 mEq/L normal
*increased in metabolic acidosis (but can be normal)
*calculated by Na - Cl + bicarb |
