Fluid & Electrolytes

Front 1

Osmosis

Back 1

Movement of Water from LESSER to HIGHER solute concentration

Front 2

Diffusion

Back 2

Movement of solute in a solution from a HIGHER to LOWER concentration

Front 3

Hypovalemia

Back 3

When excess fluid is lost

Front 4

Active Transport

Back 4

requires energy expenditure to move substances across cell membranes (e.g., Sodium potassium pump, Na+ is pulled out of (ECF) of the cell and K+ is pulled in (ICF)). Just remember Sodium (Na+) out and Potassium (K+) in.

Front 5

What are the four Processes by which fluids and solutes move across the membrane

Back 5

Osmosis, Diffusion, Active Transport and Filtration

Front 6

Anions

Back 6

Negative charged Ions

Front 7

CATIONS

Back 7

Positively charged Ions

Front 8

Homeostasis

Back 8

State of equilibrium or balance inside the body

Front 9

Electrolytes

Back 9

are minerals that are found naturally in your body and naturally in fluids like (Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, all that stuff)

Front 10

TTTOH (Things that Throw off Homeostasis)

Back 10

Diseases, Treatments, IV treatments (e.g., IV treatment will throw off Homeostasis by either making too much or taking out to little)
