A.8 Flashcards
1
Q
how to evaluate fluid status?
A
- clinical
- echo
- CVP monitoring
- PiCCO
- swan ganz
2
Q
fluid status evaluation clinical aspect?
A
- skin turgor
- tongue and mucous mem. dryness
- daily urine output
3
Q
what do we check in fluid status evaluation during echocardiography?
A
- IVC diameter
- IVC collapsebility: spon. breathing (indicates fluid responsiviness)
- IVC distensibility: when patient is on ventilator
4
Q
how do we monitor CVP?
A
- invasive
- catheter through SVC
- measures pressure rather than volume
5
Q
PiCCO meaning?
A
- Pulse index Continous CO
- invasive method uses 2 techniques for advanced hemodynamic and volumetric monitoring
- transpulmonary thermodilution: to monitor PRELOAD
- pulse contour analysis: to measure CO and SV
6
Q
What is swan-ganz catheter?
A
- pulmonary artery catheter
- very invasive
- most accurate
7
Q
what can we monitor with swan-ganz?
A
- Cardiac pressure
- pulmonary pressure
- mixed venous saturation
- central temp
- continuous CO monitoring
- PWCP (preload)
8
Q
Isotonic crystalloids?
A
0.9% saline solution
Lactate ringer
Isolyte
9
Q
when do we use isotonic crystalloids?
A
best for IV resuscitation
10
Q
normal saline (0.9% NaCl) application?
A
- fluid resuscitation
- maintenance fluid therapy
- hypovolemic hyponatremia
- solvent for IV drugs
11
Q
risks of using 0.9 Nacl?
A
- hyperchloremic acidosis
- fluid overload
12
Q
what is Lactate Ringer’s solution?
A
Na
Cl
K
Ca
lactate
13
Q
Lactate ringer’s clinical application?
A
fluid resuscitation
maintenance fluid therapy
14
Q
Risks of lactate ringer’s?
A
- lactate accumulation in liver failure
- contains calcium
- fluid overload
15
Q
hypotonic crystalloid
A
Saline solution (0.45% and 0,22%)
Dextrose Solution (5% and 10%)
