IV Fluid Quiz
hypertonic, hypotonic & isotonic fluids
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| When the cell presents with the same concentration on the inside and outside with no shifting of fluids this is called? A. Hypotonic B. Hypertonic C. Isotonic D. Osmosis | Isotonic |
| Which of the following is not a hypertonic fluid? A. 3% Saline B. D5W C. 10% Dextrose in Water (D10W) D. 5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringer’s | D%W |
| What type of fluid would a patient with severe hyponatremia most likely be started on? A. Hypotonic B. Hypertonic C. Isotonic D. Colloid | Hypertonic |
| When administering a hypertonic solution the nurse should closely watch for? A. Signs of dehydration B. Pulmonary Edema C. Fluid volume deficient D. Increased Lactate level The answer is B: Pulmonary Edema | Pulmonary Edema |
| A patient with cerebral edema would most likely be order what type of solution? A. 3% Saline B. 0.9% Normal Saline C. Lactated Ringer’s D. 0.225% Normal Saline | 3% Saline. A patient with cerebral edema would be ordered a HYPERTONIC solution to decrease brain swelling. The solution would remove water from the brain cells back into the intravascular system to be excreted. 3% Saline is the only hypertonic option. |
| _______ solutions cause cell dehydration and help increase fluid in the extracellular space. A. Hypotonic B. Osmosis C. Isotonic D. Hypertonic | Hypertonic |
| D5W solutions are sometimes considered a hypotonic solution as well as an isotonic solution because after the body metabolizes the dextrose the solution acts as a hypotonic solution. True False | TRUE D5W is classified as an isotonic fluid but after administration the body metabolizes the dextrose and the fluid left over is a hypotonic solution. |
| Which solution below is NOT a hypertonic solution? A. 5% Dextrose in 0.9% Saline B. 5% Saline C. 5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringer’s D. 0.33% saline (1/3 NS) | 0.33% saline (1/3 NS) |
| Which patient below would NOT be a candidate for a hypotonic solution? A. Patient with increased intracranial pressure B. Patient with Diabetic Ketoacidosis C. Patient experiencing Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemia D. All of the options are correct | Patient with increased intracranial pressure |
| Which condition below could lead to cell lysis, if not properly monitored? A. Isotonicity B. Hypertonicity C. Hypotonicity D. None of the options are correct | Hypertonicity |
| ________ fluids remove water from the extracellular space into the intracellular space. A. Hypotonic B. Hypertonic C. Isotonic D. Colloids | Hypotonic |
| Isotonic fluids cause shifting of water from the extracellular space to the intracellular space. True False | FALSE Hypotonic fluids cause shifting of water from the extracellular space to the intracellular space |
| A patient is being admitted with dehydration due to nausea and vomiting. Which fluid would you expect the patient to be started on? A. 5% Dextrose in 0.9% Saline B. 0.33% saline C. 0.225% saline D. 0.9% Normal Saline | 0.9% Normal Saline |
| The doctor orders an isotonic fluid for a patient. Which of the following is not an isotonic fluid? A. 0.9% Normal Saline B. Lactated Ringer’s C. 0.45% Saline D. 5% Dextrose in 0.225% saline | 0.45% Saline |
