Chapter 13- Fluid And Electrolite Balance Flashcards
Acidosis
⬆️ [H]
⬇️blood pH
Metabolic acidosis
⬇️pH
⬇️HCO3
Respiratory acidosis
⬇️pH
⬆️PCO2
Acotes
A type of edema in which fluid accumulates in the peritoneal cavity
Active transport
PUMP moves FLUID from [lower] ➡️[higher]
Requires adenosine triphosphate for energy
Alkalosis
⬇️[H]
⬆️ pH
Metabolic alkalosis
⬆️pH
⬆️HCO3
Respiratory alkalosis
⬆️pH
⬇️PCO2
Diffusion
SOLUTES move from [higher] ➡️ [lower]
Does not require energy
Homeostasis
Maintenance of internal equilibrium.
Involves positive and negative feedback mechanisms
Hydrostatic pressure
Pressure of the fluid against the wall
Hydrostatic pressure in the body
The pressure in the blood vessels is the result from the fluid ➕the force of the ❤️ contraction
Hypertonic solution
⬆️osmolality than serum
Hypotonic solution
⬇️osmolality than serum
Isotonic solution
Same osmolality than serum
