Transcellular
fluid in other body compartments such as CSF, pleural fluid, aquious fluid, synovial fluid.
ICF (Intra Cellular Fluid)
40% within cells
ECF (Extracellular Fluid)
A. ISF (interstitial fluid=in between cells) 15%
B. IVF (intravascular fluid) 5%
Composition of body fluids
electroylyes/water, minerals, cells.
Fluid spacing
Normal spacing of ICF and ECF
Second Spacing
abnormal spacing of ISF. Edema
Third spacing
areas usually without fluid (ex. peritoneal fluid build up, burn victim).
Diffusion
fluid movement from a HIGHER concentration to a LOWER concentration
Faciliated diffusion
moving from a higher concentration to a lower concentration with the help of a carrier molecule. speeds up transport (albumin, glucose transports out). requires energy (in form of ATP). movement against a pressure gradiant (sodium/potassium pump)
Osmosis
water moving from lower (solute concentration) to Higher area (across a semipermable membrane)
Osmotic Pressure
the drawing power of water exerted by solute particles. The pressure forcing the solvent across the membrane.
Osmolarity
a measure of total solute concentration per/liter of solution
Isotonic
same osmolarity as blood plasma. Normal saline (0.9%) is isotonic and will only increase volume. LR do have electrolytes in it but it is also isotonic.
Hypotonic
moves H2O into cells. Less tonic
Hypertonic
moves H20 from cells (out of cells). High tonicity.
Regulating on H2O balance
1. Hypothalamus (has osmo receptors-detects fluid loss, activates thirst response, as we age receptors are not as accurate. 2. Fluid output 3. Hormones (ADH, Aldosterone) 4. Renal
As Aldosteron conserves Na+___ is being lost
K+ (postassium)
When Lasix is given what is lost?
Both Na+ and K+ are lost
The post. Pituitary secretes___, H20 is reabsorbed by kidneys.
ADH
The Adrenal Cortex secretes___which regulates Na+ and K+
Aldosterone
Kidneys excretes___and reabsorb___
K+ and H20 (H20 and Na+ follow one another)
Fluid volume deficits are casued by?
Hypovolumeia, vomiting/fever/diarrhea, drug excess (diuretics), GI suction, neurological dysfunction, endocrine dysfunction, third spacing (ascites, pleural effusion)
Clinical manifestations of fluid volume deficits are?
weight loss, thirst/fever, change in LOC, seizures, tachycardia, decreased urinary output, decreased CVP, and decreased cardiac output
Other manifestations of fluid volume deficits are?
poor skin turgor, dry mucous membranes, increased HCT, nausea/vomiting, hypotension, sycnope
Interventions for fluid volume deficit are
(basic nursing) clinical assessment, ID underlying cause and treat, restore fluid and electrolytes.
Excess fluid volume causes
hypervolemia, CHF/pulmonary edema, endocrine dysfunction, renal dysfunction, excess IV fluids, excess corticosterioids, chronic liver disease.
Clinical manifestations of excess fluid volume
weight gain, change in LOC (disorientation), dyspnea/cough/SOB, tachypenea, tachycardia, rales/crackles, increased CVP, neck vein distension, pitting edema (common cardiac etiology)
Interventions of fluid volume excess
ID underlying cause, fluid/Na+ restricktion, diuretics
