100
I am found within the cells of the body and constitute 40% of an adult’s body weight
What is Intracellular fluid
100
I have the same concentration (osmolality) as blood plasma and I am used to increase circulating volume
What are Isotonic or (crystalloid) fluids
100
My normal range is 3.5 – 5.5 mEq/L and I am necessary for muscle contraction (especially heart muscle)
What is K
100
I refer to a loss of H20 and electrolytes equally
What is Fluid Volume Deficit (FVD)
100
I am an ion that carries a positive charge.
What is a cation.
200
We are 2 forces that determine normal movement of fluids through capillary walls into the tissue
What ARE Hydrostatic and osmotic pressure
200
I have the ability to greatly expand the intravascular space, administer them by IV pump and closely monitor the patient for circulatory overload.
What are HYPERTONIC SOLUTIONS
200
I play a major role in transmitting nerve impulses and regulation of muscle contraction and relaxation
What is Ca
200
Weak, rapid pulse and HR, Flattened neck veins, ↑ temperature, and cool clammy skin are clinical manifestations of this condition.
What is Deficient Fluid Volume
200
We are the Principle ions of Extracellular fluid
What is Na & Cl
300
I am Known as the "thirst center"
What is the Hypothalamus
300
I can cause a fluid shift from blood vessels into cells. This shift could cause cardiovascular collapse from intravascular fluid depletion.
What is HYPOTONIC FLUIDS
300
I am a drug that binds with K+ and pulls it out and excretes in fecal matter – it causes diarrhea (sorbitol base)
What is Kayexelate (PO, NGT, or retention enema)
300
↓ Hematocrit, ↓ BUN, Dilute urine AND ↓ Specific gravity are clinical manifestations of this condition.
What is Fluid volume excess
300
We are the Principle ion of Intracellular fluid
What is K and Ph
400
Amount of fluid loss that cannot be measured and is lost through respirations, sweat and feces
What is Insensible fluid losses
400
I can cause fluids to be pulled from interstitial and intercellular spaces
What are Colloids
400
If my levels get too high I can cause Tall, peaked T waves and even cardiac arrest.
What is K
400
I am a procedure to remove fluid that has accumulated in the abdominal cavity.
What is paracentesis
400
We are responsible for movement of fluid and electrolytes between fluid compartments
What is Na & Cl
500
My normal level is 1.010-1.025
What is specific gravity of urine
500
I can supply 3 things: fluid, electrolytes, & calories.
What is IV fluids
500
I may need replacing if the patient is taking high doses of diuretics.
What is potassium.
500
I am a loop diuretic and I cause rapid diuresis.
What is lasix.
