Types of IV fluids
Isotonic
Hypotonic
Hypertonic
Less particles than intracellular and moves water into cells
Causes cells to swell
Hypotonic
Used to tx dehydration and excessive dieresis and gastric fluid loss
Isotonic intravenous
Same amount of particles as body fluids and expand circulating volume but no shifts into or out of vessel or cells
Isotonic
If concentrations of dissolved solutes are greater outside the cell, the concentration of water outside is correspondingly lower.
As a result, water inside the cell will flow outwards causing cells to shrink
Cells in Hypertonic Solutions

Hypotonic used for ?
Dehydration
Hypertonic:
D5 0.3 NaCl
D5 in Lactated ringers
D5 0.45% NaCl
Isotonic:
0.9% NaCl (Normal Saline)
Lactated Ringers
D5W (In the bag)
Hypotonic: D5W (in the body) 0.25% NaCl 0.45% NaCl (half normal saline) 2.5% Dextrose
H
IV infusion of this electrolyte requires frequent assessment of the IV site
Potassium
Phosphorus and calcitonin are given for treatments of this electrolyte disturbance
Hypercalcemia
Weight of one litter of IV fluid
2.2 pounds or 1kg
Dry mucous membranes, tenting skin, low UOP
Dehydration
Electrolyte does not absorb with out vit D
Calcium
Diuretics, Daily weights and intake and outputs
Intervention for fluid overload
The type of fluid that is 3% saline
Hypertonic
Crackles in lungs, SOB, positive JVD (jugular vein distention)
Fluid overload
