Hurst fluids and electrolytes (moved to FCH) Flashcards
Steroid, mineralocorticoid
Found in adrenal glands on top of the kidneys
Aldosterone
Alka-Seltzer, fleet enema, and IVF with sodium
3 Medications that contain plenty of sodium
Diseases with too much aldosterone include Cushing’s and conn’s syndrome (hyperaldosteronism)
Disease with too little aldosterone is Addison’s disease
Aldosterone diseases
Found in atrium of the heart
works the opposite of aldosterone so it loses sodium and water
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
SIADH syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion – too much ADH
Diabetes insipidus- not enough ADH
2 ADH diseases
Hormone FOUND IN THE PITUITARY GLAND LOCATED IN THE CENTER OF THE FOREHEAD
Hormone replacements include vasopressin (Pitressin) or Desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) used to treat diabetes insipidus
ADH
Craniotomy, head injury, sinus surgery, Transsphenoidal hypophysectomy, or any condition that can lead to increased intracranial pressure
Conditions and procedures that can lead to an ADH problem
Measured at right atrium
More volume, more pressure
Central venous pressure
Crystalloids
Normal saline
lactated ringer’s
D5W
D51/4NS
Goes into the vascular space and stays there!
Fluid Stays where I put it!
Isotonic solutions
hydrating fluid
goes into the vascular space then shifts out into the cells to replace cellular fluid
they do not cause hypertension because they don’t stay in the vascular space
Fluid Gets out of vessel
examples include: D2.5W, 1/2NS, 0.33%NS
Hypotonic solutions
Colloid
Fluids enter the vessel
Volume expanders that will draw fluid into the vascular space from the cells
Examples: D10W, 3% normal saline, 5% normal saline, D5 LR, D5 1/2 normal saline, D5 normal saline, TPN, albumin
Hypertonic solutions
Like calcium, acts like A sedative Think muscles first Antacids contain plenty of this electrolyte Excreted by kidneys and GI tract Plenty contained in intestines Antidote is calcium gluconate
Magnesium
Antidote for magnesium toxicity
Calcium gluconate
Has inverse relationship with phosphorus
Direct relationship with parathyroid hormone PTH
Majority of kidney stones are made of this
Must have vitamin D to use this
Calcium
Phospho-Soda and fleet enema contain plenty of this
Has inverse relationship with calcium
Contained in anything with protein
Phosphorus
