N112 - Fluid Imbalances

        Help!  

Question
Answer
How does ADH (antidiuretic hormone) work?   show
🗑
How does aldosterone work?   show
🗑
show Decreased vascular colloid pressure, increased capillary hydrostatic pressure, increased capillary permeability, lymph obstruction.  
🗑
show Colloid osmotic pressure is the pulling force of albumin (protein) in the intravascular space.  
🗑
What would be the result of low colloid osmotic pressure?   show
🗑
show A decrease in serum protein (albumin), as in malnutrition, burns or liver damage result in low colloid osmotic pressure.  
🗑
What would happen to the blood volume if more water stayed in the interstitial space?   show
🗑
show An increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure will cause fluid & solutes to be forced into interstitial space or prevent colloid osmotic pressure from pulling water in.  
🗑
What would increased capillary permeability cause?   show
🗑
How does inflammation, burns or allergic reactions effect edema?   show
🗑
What is hypervolemia?   show
🗑
show Weight gain, peripheral edema, distended neck & peripheral veins, bounding full pulse, polyuria, pulmonary edema, moist rales. Serum sodium levels may be normal or decreased due to dilution.  
🗑
What is hypovolemia?   show
🗑
What are causes of hypovolemia?   show
🗑
What is the treatment for hypovolemia?   show
🗑
What are clinical indications of fluid volume deficiency?   show
🗑
show Third spacing is a shift of fluid from the vascular bed to the interstitial space. The vascular volume is reduced, but the person will have edematous tissue.  
🗑
