Intraoperative Fluid Mgmt Flashcards
% Total Body Water
80% Newborn, Adults 60-70%, obese=lower%, lean=higher%
Fluid Compartments and %
2 main compartments: intracellular and extracellular. ICF 2/3, ECF 1/3, ECF 1/3 plamsa fluid, 2/3 interstitial fluid
Std 70kg patient water composition
70gk - 60% water = 42 total liters, 28L ICF, 14L ECF –> 4.5L plasma, 9L interstitial
Mean of regulation of fluid compartments / separation of compartments
Diffusion, Filtration, Osmosis / ICF to ECF by cell membrane, IVF to ISF by capillary membrane
Diffusion / Filtration / Osmosis
Movement of molecules among each other / transfer of water/dissolved substance from high to low pressure / water shifting thru semipermeable membrane to reach equilibrium
What is diffusion?
Movement of molecules among each other in liquids.
What is filtration?
Transfer of water from region of high pressure to low pressure
What is osmosis?
Water shifting through semi permeable membrane from area of low solute to high solute concentration unto equilibrium reached. Generated osmotic pressure. Relates to tonicity.
ECF and ICF osmolalities
Equilibrate within minutes. # of osmo active substances remains constant or moves across membrane and being water with is to maintain equilibrium.
Osmotically active substances
ECF –> sodium, chloride, bicarb.
ICF –> potassium, phosphates, mag, proteins.
Intracellular fluid lytes
Cations are potassium and mag. Anions are proteins and phosphates.
Sodium potassium pump
Counter acts sodium desire to move inside cell. Energy requiring exchange of three sodium for two potassium. Uses ATP-ase. Also
Maintain intra cell potassium for RMP and nerve conduction.
Net Capillary and lymphatics
Capillary filtration depends on cap permeability and imbalance of hydrostatic and colloidal pressures. Cap filtration is 2ml/min. Cap filtrate them enters lymphatic circulation.
Lymphatic characteristics
Receives cap filtrate via highly perm lymph caps, carries in unidirectional manner d/t valves thru right lymph or thoracic duct to venous sys via contraction of vessels or muscles.
What are starling forces?
Forces/pressures that determine mvmt of fluid across cap membrane. Capillary hydrostatic and plasma colloid osmo pressure. ISF hydrostatic and colloid osmo pressure.
Electrolyte composition.
ICF = lots of potassium, mag, phosph/sulf and protein ECF/plasma = high sodium, bicarb chloride, calcium, organic acids, some protein but less than ICF. Plasma>ISF
Summary of fluid movement between compartments.
ICF to ECF is based on osmotic gradient reg by sodium and potassium conc. IVF to ISF is based on plasma proteins, filtration pressure and cap permeability.
