Plasma Protein Fraction

Question 1

Plasma Protein Fraction

Another Name

Answer 1

Plasmanate

Question 2

Plasma Protein Fraction (Plasmanate)

Description

Answer 2

Protein containing colloid that remains in the intravascular compartment. It in creases intravascular volume by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure

Question 3

Plasma Protein Fraction (Plasmanate)

Indication

Answer 3

Hypovolemic shock, especially burn shock, hypoproteinemia (low protein states)

Plasma Protein Fraction (Plasmanate)

Class

Answer 4

Natural Colloid

Question 5

Dextran

Class

Answer 5

Artificial Colloid

Question 6

Dextran

Description

Answer 6

Sugar containing colloid used as an intravascular volume expander. It remains in the intravascular compartment for approximately 12 hrs. Increases intravascular volume by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure

Question 7

Dextran

Indications

Answer 7

Hypovolemic Shock

Question 10

Hetastrach (Hespan)

Class

Answer 10

Artificial Colloid

Question 11

Hetastrach (Hespan)

Description

Answer 11

Starch containing colloid used as an intravascular volume expander. Following administration the plasma volume is expanded slightly in excess of the volume of hetastarch administered. This effect has been observed for up to 24-36 hrs. Increases intravascular volume by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure.

Question 12

Hetastarch (Hespan)

Indications

Answer 12

Hypovolemic shock, especially burn shock, septic shock
