What separates the ICF from ECF
cellular membrane
What two compartments make up the ECF
Intravascular (IVF) and interstitial (ISF)
Major electrolytes found in ICF
K, Mg, and Phosphate
Major difference in the composition of IVF and ISF
Albumin
What are the Starting Forces?
-capillary pressure
-ISF pressure
- ISF colloid pressure
-plasma colloid osmotic pressure
When should you administer an isotonic solution?
Given when you expect water and electrolyte loss
When would you administer a hypotonic solution
Given when you only anticipate water loss.
Complications of blood therapy
1. allergic reaction
2. decrease in 2,3-DPG
3. citrate toxicity
4. TRALI
5. transmission of infectious diseases
6. metabolic abnormalities
7. transfusion associated graft vs host disease
Autologous Blood Transfusion can be achieved by?
1. Normovolemic hemodilution
2. Predeposited Autologous blood
3. Intra and post-op blood salvage
If you give 1 unit of PRBC, how much increase will you expect in pt's H/H
1g/dL in the hemoglobin/2-3% in hematocrit
OR nurse just counted a soaked 'lap' towel. How much blood did your pt loose?
100-150cc

*** one soaked 4x4 sponge holds 10cc
Is tachycardia a sensitve indicator of hypovolemia?
No, because of the effects of anesthesia... CVP and BP are better indicators. Look at UO and sats too
Which is better for resuscitation, colloids or crystalloids?
They both are, but at different amounts. Colloid to crystalloid replacement ratio is about 1:3-4
When would you choose Dextran 70 over Dextran 40
Dextran 70 is best for volume expansion, and Dextran 40 to increase blood flow through microvasculature
Disadvantages of colloid administration
1. Expensive
2. Causes coagulopathies
3. Dextran can cause RF
4. Can cause osmotic diuresis
5. Albumin Can cause immune response
Disadvantages of crystalloids
1. Dilutes plasma proteins
2. Has transient effect
3. Potential for pulmonary edema
4. Causes peripheral edema
5. reduces capillary osmootic pressure
How do we estimate maintenance fluid requirements
- For the first 10kg give 4c/kg/hr
- For the next 10-20kg add 2cc/kg/hr
-For each kg above 20kg, add 1cc/kg/hr
Maximum allowable blood loss formula is?
EBV x (Starting hct - target hct) /starting hct
Threshold for blood transfusion is?
hemogobin of 7-8g/dL or hematocrit of 21-24%.

This is a general rule, that excludes pts with cardiac and pulmonary diseas, and older adults. Also all pt's are different
What happens when you give large amounts of Ns
hyperchloremic-induced non-gap acidosis
Indirect effect of NMBs on fluid requirements
NMBs have no CV effects, but they can cause the release of histamine and decrease SVR = venous pooling. You will need to give more
You are doing a preop physical assessment, what should you assess for to determine fluid status
1. mucous membranes
2. skin turgor
3. strength of peripheral
4. BP and ortho BP
5. resting HR
6. UO
What lab test would you want to get on a pt. to assess fluid status?
1. serial hematocrit
2. ABG and base deficit
3. urine specific gravity
4. serum Na
5. creatnine to BUN ratio
Administration of large volumes of LR will result in?
metabolic alkalosis
Examples of Isotonic solutions are?
NS, D5 1/4NS, LR, Plasmalyte
Hypotonic solutions include?
D5W, 0.5NS,
Hypertonic solutions include?
D5 1/2NS, D5 NS, D5 LR, 7.5%NaHCO3, 3% NS, 5% NS
Rapid correction of serum Na can lead to?
Myelinosis, also known as central pontine myelinolysis (CPM).

*** Common in pts with hx of ETOH abuse and OLT
