31
Q

What fluids should be avoided in liver disease & why?

A

lactated fluids– since the lactate is the buffer solution & its conversion to bicarbonate in the liver is required
(ie: LRS will become acidifying solution the face of liver dz d/t the inability to convert lactate to bicabronate)

Ammonia (NH3) can cross the blood brain barrier

33
Q

Describe why hypokalemia worsens hepatic encephalopathy?

A

–potassium will displace from inside the cell
–H will then be displaced to maintain electroneutrality (inside the cell)
– And excreted into urine, H will be exchanged for ammonia in the renal tubules

Q

What are reasons for an increased anion gap?

A

** an increase in unmeasured anions

39
Q

What is the equation for strong ion difference?

A

40
Q

What is the equation for strong ion gap (SIG)?

A

41
Q

43
Q

lactate clearance is performed by what organs (primary, secondary, tertiary)?

A

primary: liver

secondary: kidney (metabolism, not excretion)

tertiary: heart, skeletal mm

44
Q

sodium bicarbonate should not be administered with what conditions?

A

-lactic acidosis (will serve no purpose to correct the acidemia)

45
Q

To replace blood loss with crystalloid solution, what volume is required?
