16
Q

Fluid volume deficit

A

Inadequate intake

17
Q

ascites

A

Fluid within the abdomen

18
Q

Fluid volume deficit Signs & symptoms

A
A cute weight loss
Thirst 
Decrease urine out four 
Increased specific gravity 
Low BP (hypotension)
Darker Uribe 
Decreased vascular volume 
Tachycardia 
Babies: sunken eyes, depressed dont aloe, dry mucous, inc. body temp.
Poor skin turbot
19
Q

Fluid volume excess signs and symptoms

A

Acute weight gains increased ECF

Edema occurs because exceeds fluid in ISF and ICF

20
Q

Edema

A

Increased capillary pressure because of increased vascular volume

21
Q

What does albumin do?

A

Albumin pulls the fluid into the blood stream from ISF and ICF

22
Q

antidiuretic hormone (ADH)

A

Acts at the nephron—-helps absorbs water back into bloodstream—-dilutes blood——

(Holds onto fluid which increased blood fluid volume which increase BP, which decrease blood concentration)

23
Q

Diabetes Insipidus

A

Patients have urinary incompetence causing dehydration

24
Q

Oliguria

A

Low production of urine <400

25
Q

Orthostatic hypotension

A

A person is standing or sitting and their BP drops 20 mm ahh within 3 mins because of dehydration
