Body Fluid

QuestionAnswer
Intracellular (ICF) 2/3 body fluid w/in cellsMost resistant to shifts = most stable
Extracellular (ECF) 1/3 body fluids outside cellsinterstitial= reserve fluid/inravascular = least stable
Cells are separated by? Capillary membranes that are selectively permiable and completely permeable to H2).
Body Fluids are ion motion & nutrient/electrolyte/O2 transporters Carry waste away, regulate body temp., lubricate joints/membranes.
Osmosis Move H2O b/t 2 compartments from low to high concentration through semipermeable membrane/ from more dilute to more concentrate.
Osmolarity/Osmolality Concentration of solutes in body fluids- concentration of solute per Liter of H2O.
Osmotic/Onctic Power Power of solution to dram H2O across a semipermeable membrane.
Isotonic Fluid w/same osmolality as cell. 0.9% NS, Ringers Solution, Lactated Ringers, no sugar/dectrose in these solutions.
Hypotonic Fluid w/less concentration than cell. Prevent/treat dehydration. D5W dextrose metabolizes quickly leaving free H2O to shift into cells, 0.45 NS.
Hypertonic Fluid w/ more concentration than cell. Shrinks cell, promote osmotic dieresis. >0.9% NS & Dextrose, >5% which is given when blood sugar is low to help glucose into cells.
Oncotic Pressure/Colloid Osmotic Pressure Plasma proteins exert pressure and pull H2O from interstitial space into vascular compartments. (Albumin helps maintain normal serum oncotic pressure & adequate vascular fluid volume.
Colloids 1 g. solute particles that don't pass through capillary membranes. (albumin, dexatran, hetastarch)
Fluid Shifts Normal movement of fluids b/t capillary & interstitium (inside & outside cells) caused by different pressure in arterial/venous ends of capillary.
Edema occurs? When fluid shifts into ICF area when the venous hydrostatic pressure rises, plasma oncotic pressure decreases, or interstitial oncotic pressure rises.
Diffusion Particles move from high to low concentration continuing until equal- increase in temp will increase the rate of molecules- due to semipermeable membranes, particles like glucose can't get into cells w/out assistance (insulin)
Filtration Fluid and solutes move together across a membrane from 1 compartment to another from hight to low concentration mechanically separating mixtures- done by kidneys or dialysis.
Active Transport Energy spent to move large molecules across high pressure areas.
1st Spacing Normal distribution in ICF/ECF
2nd Spacing Abnormal accumulation of interstitial fluid.
3rd Spacing Fluid accumulates where it's not easily extracted.
ANF & BNP Cardiac hormone in the atria released when atrium is stretched from high BP/volume
Fluid Volume Defecit istotonic fluid loss (burns, hemorrhage etc.)Hypertonic dehydration3rd Spacing
Med's affecting FVD diuretics, chemotherapy.
Minimum OP in children & adults is? 1-2 ml/kg/hr30 ml/hr
Assess for tinting in children on inner thigh & abdomen
Assess for Hypotension in FVD late sign in children, increased PR >10-15 & decrease BP >10-15 after rising from lying to standing.
Frank hypotension Low BP even when lying down.
Syncope Fall/get dizzy when rising from lying.
Tachycardia/tachypnea esp. in infants/children with FVD
Acute weight loss 2% is mild, 5% is moderate, 8% is severe, 15% is fatal.
Normal hematocrit in males/females 42-50%40-48%
Increased urine specific gravity Hypertonic dehydration
In FVD assess UOP, HR, RR, & mental status
Antimetics for N/V Phenergan
Antidiarrheal Immodium
ADH (if diabetes insipidus) Vasopressin
Antipyretics Tylenol,Motrin
Isotonic fluid excess Renal failure, heart failure, excess fluid intake
Edema Fluid volume excess in both intravascular & interstitial spacing.
FVE labs Hemodilution, Chest Xray shows pleural effusion, Arterial blood gasses may show hypoxemia.
Therapeutic Mgmt of FVE Restrict fluid intake w/saline lock kept open & flushed only, sodium restricted diet, promote excretion.Loop diuretics, Lasix, Potassium sparing diuretics, Thiazide, Lanovin.Monitor RR.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
