5a Flashcards
Body fluid composition
Water makes up 60% of weightIntracellular water–40% of weight, 2/3 of total body water, high K +Extra cellular water–20% of weight, 1/3 of total body water, high Na +EC water is1. Intravascular/plasma 25%2. Extravascular/interstitial 75%
Movement of fluid within the body depends on…..
… The balance btwn 1. Filtration (incr hydrostatic P, decr oncotic P)2. Resorption (decr hydrostatic P, incr oncotic P)occurs at the level of the capillary
Define dehydration
Hypohydration= loss of bodily fluidsCauses: GI, renal, burns/skin, respiratory tract, saliva, third spacing, hemorrhage
Dehydration and PE chart
<5% non-detectable5-8% decr skin turgor, dry MM8-10% + eyes sunken, prolong CRT10-12% + severe skin tent, eyes sunken, prolong CRT, dry MM, +/- shock12% life threatening
Shock dose dog vs cat
Dog 90ml/kgCat 50 ml/kg= to one blood volume
hyper vs hypotonic fluid losses
hypotonic fluid losses (loss of water >solutes)–>tonicity of extracellular fluid incr–>water shifts from intracellular to extracellular–>intracellular dehydrationhypertonic fluid losses (loss of solutes >water)–>tonicity of intracellular fluid will be higher or hypertonic and fluid to shift from extracellular to intracellular–>extracellular dehydration
guidelines for calculating rehydration for patient
KG x % dehyd (replacement) +estimated losses + maintanence
osmolarity of plasma
290-310 mOsm/L
isotonic fluids contain which types of bicarbonate precursors
alkalinizing effect1. lactate–metabolized by liver (D-lactate is not mx)2. acetate–metabolized by muscle (more profound effect)3. gluconate–metabolized by many cells
Fluid choice for patients with hypoNa, hypoCl, metabolic alkalosis
0.9% NaCl
T/FLarge quantities of acetate containing fluids can cause vasodilation and decr in BP
trueLarge quantities of acetate containing fluids can cause vasodilation and decr in BPsecondary to adenosine release (potent vasodilator) from muscle
fluid choice for head trauma patients
0.9% NaClbecause of high Na content (154 mEq/L) and is least likely to cause decr in osmolarity and subsequent water movement into brain interstitium
replacement vs maintenance fluids
replacement—isotonic (hi NaCl)maintenance–hypotonic (low NaCl, hi K)
option to treat free water deficit
hypotonic fluid252 mOsm/L (slightly lower than plasma)5% dextrose with sterile water
fluid choice for patients with diabetes insipidus or hypernatremia
sterile water with 5% dextrose
T/FD5W can be given as a bolus
FALSEhypotonicif given as a bolus will distribute to all body fluid compartments, cause acute decreases in osmolarity and lead to cerebral edema.
Why administer hypertonic fluids slowly
if hypertonic fluids are given too fast (> 1 ml/kg/min) osmotic stimulation of pulmonary C fibers results in vagal mediated bradycardia, bronchoconstriction, hypotensionbc monocyte dehydration and subsequent friction btwn monocytes
goal of hypertonic saline solutions
draw extravascular water into the intravascular spaceosmotic diuresis
contraindications of HTS use
do not given in already dehydrated animalsphlebitis/hemolysisavoid right atrium (leads to arrhythmias)
How are synthetic colloids described
by their weight average (Mw) or number average (Mn) molecular weightpolydispersity index Mw/Mn ratiohigher molecular weight molecules are not metabolized or excreted as quickly as smaller particlespersist longer
side effects of colloid administration
disrupt normal coagulationdecr factor VIII, vWFimpair platelet fxinterfer w fibrin clot stability–>increased finbrinolysis
hydroxyethyl starch colloids are characterized by what?
contain highly branched starch, amylopectinweight average (Mw)–low, med, hiconcentration %# substitutions (more substitutions last longer)
T/F Total protein refractometer readings are a valid way of monitoring colloidal therapy
FALSEcolloids do NOT increase TP
Characteristics of oxyglobin
Hb based oxygen carrying fluidsterile, ultrapure, bovine Hb solutionnonantigenic40 mm Hg oncotic P13 ml/dL Hb concentration
Side effect of oxyglobin administration
NO scavenging affectsvasoconstriction
How much blood can most animals lose prior to blood transfusion
most can lose 10-15%acute hemorrhage > 20% often requires blood transfusion
dose of pRBC, FFP, or whole blood
pRBC 10-15 ml/kgFFP 10-15 ml/kgwhole blood 20-25 ml/kg
blood volume in dog vs cat
90 ml/kg dog50 ml/kg cat
calculation of volume of pRBC to be deliveredShort et al JVECCS 2012
volume of RBC to be delivered = blood volume x kg x (PCV goal-PCV current)/PCV donor blood1.5 x %PCV rise x kg (both gave accurate predictions in PCV post pRBC transfusion)
What does whole blood contain
clotting factors (no longer present if stored >24hr)plateletsRBCplasmause within 8 hr
pRBC characteristics
PCV ~ 80%shelf life 20 daysONLY RBCreadily available, low risk overload, reduced exposure to plasma antigens
What does plasma contain?
Protein (alb, globulins)Clotting factorsFFP within 6 hr-1yrFP >1yr–no longer has clotting factors
What does cryoprecipitate contain
vWf VIIIfibrinogenfibronectin
sequele of administering citrate containing blood products too quickly
chelation of Ca and clinical hypoCa
optional good products for vWF patients
cryoprecipitate (most effective)FFPplasma donors from dogs treated with desmopressin (DDAVP)
dose of DDAVP
1 mcg/kg SQ once before surgeryMOA: induces release of vWF
how many dog blood antigens
8 know canine blood antigens
how many dogs can tolerate a first blood transfusion
15% have reaction first time85% tolerate first transfusion fine
MOA of EACA
epsilon aminocaproic acidEACA binds lysine residues on fibrin–>BLOCKS activation of plasminogen to plasmin–>keeps clot longerantifibrinolytic used to treat greyhound bleeders
EACA and amputation in GHMarin 2012
5.7x more likely to bleed without EACA28% delayed post op bleeding GH
EACA and gonadectomy in GHMarin 2012
30% bleeding in placebo group/ 10% EACA groupEACA sign decr bleeding post op by increasing clot strength (TEG–MA)
feline blood typing
A–DSHB–persian, british, himalayanType A cats rarely have large quantities of antiB antibodiesType B cats OFTEN have STRONG antiA antibodies
Why is auto transfused blood not a dependable source of clotting factors
with hemorrhage into a body cavity, all clotting factors and fibrin are rapidly depleted
how to perform autotransfusion
mix aspirated blood with 10 ml of CPDA-1 or 3.8% citrate with 90 ml blood
