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
|
