Hydration
These are the risks for dehydration (name at least 3).
What are intense physical activity, hot weather/ humidity, illness with vomiting or diarrhea, old age and infancy?
This electrolyte is low in the marathon runner's BMP.
What is sodium?
This IV fluid is 0.9% NaCl (154 mEq/L sodium and 154 mEq/L chloride) and increases circulating fluid volume without significantly altering electrolyte concentrations.
What is normal saline?
Muscle pain.
What is myalgia?
This laboratory test analyzes both liver and kidney functions.
What is a CMP?
Drinking excessive amounts of water without replacing electrolytes can cause this condition.
What is hyponatremia?
This electrolyte is normally about 0.7 * the concentration of sodium.
What is chloride?
This IV fluid treats severe hyponatremia, raised intracranial pressure, & thick airway mucus.
What is 3% saline?
Enlargement of the lymph nodes.
What is lymphadenopathy?
This laboratory test includes sodium, potassium, BUN, creatinine, chloride, bicarbonate, and glucose.
What is a BMP?
Water moves into cells by this process when the extracellular fluid becomes hypotonic.
What is osmosis?
This is the sodium level that is considered hyponatremia.
What is 135 mEq/L?
This fluid is given to avoid hemolysis.
What is D5W/ 5% dextrose?
Enlargement of the thyroid glands.
What is thyromegaly?
This is the amount of water and timing that is ideal for marathon completion.
This hormone causes the kidneys to retain water via aquaporin insertion.
What is ADH?
This action causes electrolyte depletion & triggers unstable blood glucose by stopping food absorption.
What is vomiting/emesis?
This condition is treated with oral free water or D5W?
What is hypernatremia?
Swelling of the fingertips associated with chronic disease.
What is clubbing?
This hormone increases water retention by promoting sodium reabsorption.
What is aldosterone?
These are the symptoms of dehydration (name two).
What are raised plasma osmolarity is the main sign of dehydration (as opposed to hypovolemia), fatigue, dark urine, dizziness, tiredness, thirst
This cellular pump moves 3 sodium ions out and 2 potassium ions into the cell using ATP.
What is the sodium potassium pump?
This IV fluid contains potassium, calcium, and lactate as a buffer and is used to replace fluids while helping buffer pH?
What is Lactated Ringer's?
An abnormal heart sound heard during cardiac auscultation.
What is a gallup?
This process falsely elevates red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit on a CBC due to decreased plasma volume from dehydration.
What is hemoconcentration?
