1245 Fluid Volume Excess

Front 1

Excessive retention of fluids and solutes is called ?

Back 1

Hypervolemia

Front 2

When excessive fluids shift to the interstitial space it is called ?

Back 2

edema

Front 3

Pulmonary edema = ?

Back 3

crackles

Front 4

Assessment finding for FVE can include ?

Back 4

Edema(dependent, Pulmonary, Anasarca), Tought shiny skin, Rapid bounding pulse, >BP, distended veins, weight gain, <BUN(unless renal failure), <hct, CXR(pulmonary congestion), SOB, Dyspnea, <pO2

Front 5

Nsg Dx for FVE ?

Back 5

Excess fluid volume related to venous and arterial abnormalities secondary to immobility AEB (s/s) 3+ pitting edema

Front 6

Outcome for FVE ?

Back 6

pt. will have no further fluid excess by end of shift AEB: LE pitting edema will remain 3+ or less

Front 7

FVE interventions?

Back 7

Diagnose and treat the cause
Reduce fluids by fluid and Na restriction, diuretics,hemodialysis
Monitor VS, Pulses, I&O, resp. status, daily weight, edema
Skin Care

Front 8

One sign of hypervolemia is ? caused by excess fluid in the IVS.

Back 8

rapid, bounding pulses

Front 9

When ? progresses, it can fill the lungs with fluid and cause ? edema, as indicated by the presence of ?, frothy sputum.

Back 9

Hypervolemia, Pulmonary, Pink

Front 10

If sodium intake suddenly increases, ? fluid concentration also rises, and vice versa.

Back 10

ECF, because the cells give up fluids to try and make the ECF Isotonic.
