Q

Arterial vs venous end of vessel filtration vs absorption state

A

At arterial end hydrostatic pressure is greater than plasma osmotic pressure (which is constant), resulting in net filtration, hydrostatic pressure progressively drops off eventually causing favor of absorption from plasma osmotic pressure on venous side

Q

Sensible water losses vs insensible water losses

A

Sensible losses are measurable and take the form of urine, include 1-2 L per day. Insensible loss is immeasurable and due to evaporative loss thru skin and respiratory tract and includes of to 600-900mL/day

Q

Na/K+ ATPase transports…

A

3 sodium ions outside the cell, and 2 potassium ions into the cell

20
Q

1 liter of fluid = how many kg = how many lbs?

A

1kg, 2.2 lbs

21
Q

1 gallon = how many liters?

A

3.78L

22
Q

Hyponatremia is defined as serum Na+ …

A

135, 145

23
Q

Most common cause of hyponatremia is from…

A

….H2O gain

24
Q

Isotonic hyponatremia definition

A

Also knwon as factitous or pseudohyponatremia, this occurs when sodium levels are normal but measured low due to fats and proteins in the blood

25
Q

Hypertonic hyponatremia definition

A

Increased solutes in plasma such as glucose or mannitol redistribute the volume of fluid from intra to extracellular space causing dilution resulting in hyponatremia

26
Q

Hypotonic hyponatremia definition

A

Occurs when excess of H2O exceeds Na+ conc.

27
Q

Euvolemic hyponatremia conundrum and how to evidence increased body H2O

A

-Occurs when patients have pure H2O excess extracellularly but not intravascularly, and appear euvolemic with the only evidence of increased total H2O is a lowered BUN

28
Q

Hospitilization is required when Na+ drops below…

A

…125

29
Q

Central pontine myelinolysis definition

A

Demyelination that occurs resulting in irreversible neurological defect after treatment of Na+ over 10 MEQ in 24 hrs or 18MEQ in 48 hrs

30
Q

When treating a patient with hypernatremia need to give a __tonic solution first because…

A

isotonic, because it prevents cells from expanding too quickly and bursting by introducing fluid back in slowly until it can equally distribute and stabilize the BP

31
Q

A drop of 1 MEQ/L of serum K+ indicates a….

A

200-400 MEQ deficit, very significant

32
Q

Glucose and insulin administration can help drive ___ back into cells

A

K+

33
Q

European black licorcie has the same effect in the body as…

A

…aldosterone

34
Q

Bartter syndrome definition

A

Rare inherited defect in thick ascending limb of loop of henle characterized by low K+ levels and high pH

35
Q

Hypokalemia is when K+ drops < ___MEQ/L, hyperkalemia is when K+ is > ___MEQ/L

A

3.5, 5.3

36
Q

Correction for hypokalemia if <40k, what about if >40kg

A

.25 MEQ/kg/hr

10 MEQ/kg/2hrs

37
Q

Symptoms of hyperkalemia (3)

A
  • weakness
  • flaccid paralysis
  • hyperactive DTR’s
38
Q

An EKG with a flat “T” wave and shortened QRS complex is a sign of… What about with peaked T waves and widened QRS complex

A

Hypokalemia, hyperkalemia

39
Q

Calculation for fluid replacement therapy maintenance

A
  • first 10 kg 100ml/kg/day
  • 2nd 10 kg 50ml/kg/day
  • remaining 20ml/kg/day
40
Q

With a functioning kidney, an individual should intake approx ___L per day and urinate out that same amount

A

1.5-2L

41
Q

Fluid replacement therapy’s formula is chosen to ensure good urine output in hospitalized patient, what is the minimal output to ensure good renal perfusion?

A

720mL/day

42
Q

Sweating can cause a volume loss of __L/hr

A

1-2

43
Q

Almost ___ L is lost each day to skin evaporation, respiration, and GI tract

A

1

44
Q

IV fluid in mL/hr is summation of 5 items

A
  • baseline maintenance
  • deficit
  • ongoing losses
  • 3rd spacing
  • compensatory
45
Q

How much K+ must be added to each L of fluid? How much Na+?

A

20 mEQ, 50mEQ

46
Q

Deficit formula

A

(.6 x weight)x(Na-140)/140

47
Q

Calculation for fluid replacement therapy deficit

A

Acute loss give 1/2 deficit over first 8 hours, 1/4 deficit over next 8 hrs

Chronic loss give 1/2 deficit over 24 hours
