A

Isotonic
Isooncotic with serum
2-4 potency of LF
Hypovolemic states

36
Q

25% Albumin

A

Isotonic
Hyperoncotic
**Hypovolemia with edema
Can pull fluids from intracellular to intravascular

37
Q

Albumin should be used FOR SURE in:

A

Cirrhosis because that is the only place it is shown to decrease mortality

38
Q

Normal Sodium

A

135-145 mEq/L

39
Q

***Serum sodium never reflect:

A

TOTAL BODY STORES OF SODIUM

40
Q

If your tank size increases, then

A

You are really hypervolemic and hypernatremic but your levels can show hyponatremic

41
Q

If your tank size decreases, then

A

You are really hypovolemic and hyponatremic but your levels can show hypernatremic (because you have a higher salt to water ratio even though your salt didn’t increase)

42
Q

120-130 mEq/L of Na symptoms

A

N/V malaise

43
Q

115-120 mEq/L of Na symptoms

A

Headache
Tremors
Loss of coordiantion**

44
Q

Less than 115 mEq/L of Na

A

Seizures and coma**

45
Q

Severity of hyponatremia is absed on:

A

Absolute decrease in sodium

Rapidity of onset

46
Q

Hyponatremia Assessment Steps

A

Determine volume status

Calculate serum osmolality

47
Q

Normal serum osmolality:

A

275-290 mOsm/kg

48
Q

Causes of Hypertonic Hyponatremia

A

Hyperglycemia (need to correct sodium for elevated glc)

Mannitol or toxic alcohols

49
Q

Pseudohyponatremia

A

If you have really high lipids (TG), then our serum sodium will be falsely lowered

50
Q

Causes of Isotonic Hyponatremia

A

Hyperproteinemia
Hyperlipidemia
Bladder irrigation
Pseudohyponatremia

51
Q

A

HF
Cirrhosis
Renal insufficiency

53
Q

Hypotonic Hyponatremia + Hypovolemic

A

Consider urinary sodium concentration

58
Q

A 
Underlying condition (diuretic for cirrhosis or CHF)
Fluid restriction to less than 1500 mL/day
59
Q

Hypotonic Euvolemic Hyponatremia Treatment

A 
Fluid restriction
IV 3% saline if severe symptoms
Demeclocycline
AVP receptor antagonists
Conivaptan (vaprisol)
60
Q

Demeclocycline

A

Inhibits actiono f ADH in kidneys
Delay in onset so only good for chronic
- Nephrotoxicity, photsensitivity, hepatotocitiy

61
Q

AVP Receptor Antagonists

A

Conivaptan
Lixivaptan
Tolvapatan

62
Q

Conivaptan

A

$$$
Inhibits ADH
- Infusion site rxns, thirst, headache, vomiting
IV only

63
Q

Asymptomatic Na Correction Rate

A

Less than 6 mEq/24 hrs

0.5-1 mEq/h

64
Q

What happens if you correct hypo too fast?

A

Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome ODS

65
Q

What happens if you correct hyper too fast?
