Colloids

Question 1

Plasma Protein Fraction

Name

Answer 1

Plasmanate

Question 2

Plasma Protein Fraction

Class

Answer 2

Natural Colloid

Question 3

Plasma Protein Fraction

Description

Answer 3

Plasmanate is a protein-containing colloid that remains in the intravascular compartment. It increases intravascular volume by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure

Question 4

Plasma Protein Fraction

Indications

Answer 4

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

Question 5

Dextran

Name

Answer 5

Dextran

Question 6

Dextran

Class

Answer 6

artificial colloid

Question 7

Dextran

Description

Answer 7

Dextran is a sugar containing colloid used as an intravascular volume expander. it remains in the intravascular compartment for approximately 12 hours. It increases intravascular volume by attracting water from other fluid compartments by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure

Question 8

Dextran

Indications

Answer 8

Hypovolemic shock

Question 9

Hetastrach

Name

Answer 9

Hespan

Question 10

Hetastrach

Class

Answer 10

Artificial colloid

Question 11

Hetastrach

Description

Answer 11

Hetastrach is a starch containing colloid used as an intravascular volume expander. following administration, the plasma volume is expanded slightly in excess of the volume of hetastrach administered. This effect has been observed for up to 24 to 36 hours. hetastrach increases intravascular volume by virtue of its colloid osmotic pressure

Question 12

Hetastrach

Indications

Answer 12

Hypovolemic shock, especially burn shock, septic shock
