Total body water as percentage of total weight?
60%
Breakdown of total body water (2 compartments)?
2/3 IC (40% of weight)
1/3 EC (20% of weight)
Breakdown of extracellular fluid and its proportion of total body weight?
3/4 Interstitial (15% of weight)
1/4 Intravascular (5% of weight)
Intracellular dominant cations?
Extracellular dominant cations?
IC: K+, Mg+
EC: Na+
Isotonic fluid addition / subtraction from EC space changes IC volume and EC osmolarity (true/false)
False - istotonic contraction/expansion of EC space does not cause any movement of free water from IC space because no new osmotic gradient
1. calculation for serum osmolarity?
2. Typical normal range?
2xNa + glucose/18 + BUN/2.8
normal range: 280-300
two triggers for renin release?
renal hypoperfusion, low EC sodium concentrations
Normal K+ serum level? What percentage is IC?
3.5-5.0; 98% IC
For every 0.1 change in pH, what corresponding physiologic change occurs with important clinical consequence?
0.3 change in K+ concentrations (hyperkalemia in acidosis, hypokalemia in alkalosis)
how much urine should an adult produce (per weight). How much UOP then per hour and per day for 70 kg adult?
0.5 cc / kg / hour
For 70 kg adult, expect ~35cc/hour and 850cc/day
In a patient with insensible losses (e.g. skin and pulmonary) such as in the case of fever, need to add what type of fluid replacement?
salt-free water / hypotonic IVF
patients who are under general anasthesis can develop what acid-base disorder with what consequence?
hypocapnic resp alkalosis (from being hyperventilated) ---> hypokalemia
what three important components of fluid replacements important after significant vomiting/gastric drainage?
patient has hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis - needs normal saline + KCL
replacement for isotonic/third spacing?
lactated ringers
Name 5-6 causes for significant third space losses?
burns, trauma, long-bone fractures, peritonitis, acute pancreatitis, intestinal obstructions
a few common causes of isotonic volume depletion?
GI losses (NGT, diarrhea), GI fistula drainages, blood losses
hypotonic volume depletion (water excess of solutes)? name 2 causes
diabetes insipidus (central or nephrogenic), sweating/evaporative losses (e.g. fever)
name 3-4 clinical signs of interstitial fluid deficit.
dry MMs, inc skin turgor, dry skin, sunken eyes
differentiation of prerenal azotemia from acute renal injury?
prerenal azotemia typically has Na+<1% w/ Bun/Cr ratio > 20, urine osmolarity > 400
Note: BUN/Cr<10 typically in acute renal injury, high urine sodim (can't filter)
