66% intracellular
28% interstitial
5% in vessels
measurable water loss

hypervolemia causes
fluids

oncotic vs osmotic pressure
oncotic = proteins
osmotic = electrolytes
both keep fluid in vessels
hypervolemia effects
heart
kidneys
lungs (pulmonary edema)
vessels (jugular distension)
brain
hypervolemia risks
heart disease
kidney disease
liver disease
very small
hypervolemia treatment
stop fluids
diuretic
fix endocrine issues
hypovolemia risks
lactation

hypovolemia causes
primary = not getting enough water
secondary = complication of another pathology
kidney disease
GI disease
fever
hypovolemia diagnoses

math
dehydration% = normal kg x dehydrated kg divided by normal kg ….. x 100
deficit volume = dehydration% x dehrdrated kg x 1000(mL)
