Exam 3- IV Fluid Flashcards
Does overnight fasting have a significant reduce IV volume?
NO
Anesthesia related factors causing IV volume derangements (2)
- Anesthetics
2. Sympathetic blockade during neuralgia anesthesia
Surgery related factors causing IV volume derangements (6)
- Hemorrhage
- Coagulopathy due to hemodilution and hypothermia
- Decrease venous return
- Mechanical ventilation maneuvers
- Prolonged operative time, open abdominal cavity, bowel edema
- Reasons preventing transition from IV to oral fluid therapy within 24 hrs of surgery
Tissue edema effects, increase extra vascular fluid
Hypervolemia
Can hypovolemia and hypervolemia lead to tissue perfusion?
YES
3 limitations for monitoring IV volume status:
- CVP
- Urine output
- Mixed venous and oxygen saturation
What is tonicity:
Effective osmolality
What does serum sodium reflect?
Total body water status
What does sodium content in intravenous fluid dictate?
Fluid distribution
What can all crystalloids be viewed as?
Water and saline equivalents
More or less water as we age?
Less water
Increased ECF or ICF with malnutrition?
ECF
Water represents how much of weight?
50-60%
ICF:ECF ratio?
2:1
ECF is comprised of:
Interstitial fluid (3 parts) Plasma (IV) (1 part)
ISF:plasma ratio
3:1
Cellular membrane permeable to what?
Water but not ions
Principle ions of ECF:
Na+ Cl-
Principle ions of ICF:
K+ PO42-
Fluid components of blood within vessels maintained by the inward pull of…
Colloid osmotic pressure (oncotic pressure)
Fluid components of blood within vessels maintained by the outward pull of…
Hydrostatic pressure which pushes plasma out of vessels
What is endothelial glycocalyx?
Endothelium coated on luminal side with fragile glycocalyx layer
Web of membrane bound glycoproteins and proteoglycans
Glycocalyx layer
What does endothelial glycocalyx do?
First barrier to regulating cellular and macromolecule transport
What kind of pressure does endothelial glycocalyx produce?
Colloid oncotic pressure which is important to transcapillary flow
4 factors that degrade endothelium?
- Ischemia/reperfusion
- Hypoxia
- Inflammatory cytokines
- Atrial natriuretic peptide
3 protective factors of endothelium
- Sevo
- Hydrocortisone
- Antithrombin
Which ion is the primary determinant of osmolality?
Sodium
What governs IV fluid distribution within the body?
Sodium content of intravenous fluids
Represent particles which are confined to one side of the membrane thereby influencing distribution of fluids within the body
Effective osmoles
