Fundementals Of Fluid Electrolyte Balance Bohecker Iv

Front 1

S&S of hyponatremia

Back 1

impaired sensation of taste, anorexia, muscle cramps, feeling of exhaustin, apprehension, feeling of impending doom and focal weaknesses, fingerprinting edema(fluid overload)

Front 2

S&S of hypernatremia

Back 2

marked thirst, elevated body temperature, swollen tongue, red, dry sticky mucous membranes, (severe hypernatremia) disorientation and irritability or hyperactivity when stimulated

Front 3

S&S hypokalemia

Back 3

may experience neuromuscular changes such as fatigue, muscle weakness, diminished deep tendon reflexes, and flaccid paralysis(late).
anorexia, nausea, vomiting, irritability(early), increased senitivity to digitalis, electrocardiographic changes adn death caused by cardiac arrest.

Front 4

hypernatremia specific gravity results

Back 4

greater than 1.015(except with diabetes insipidous)

Front 5

hypokalemia ecg tracing

Back 5

ST-segment depression, flattened T wave and the presence of a U wave.

Front 6

hyperkalemia S&S

Back 6

ecg changes, vague muscles weakness , flaccid paralysis, anxiety, nausea, cramping and diarrhea.

Front 7

ecg tracing for hyperkalemia

Back 7

progressive changes; tall T-waves; prolonged PR intervals;ST-segment depression; widened QRS; and loss of P wave.

Front 8

S&S for hypcalcemia

Back 8

neuromuscular symptoms-numbness of fingers, cramps in the muscles(especially the extremities), hyperactive deep tendon reflexes, and a postitve Troussea's sign and Chvosteks's sign

Front 9

Positive Trousseau sign

Back 9

carpal spasm after 3 minutes of a blood pressure cuff being inflated above systolic pressure.

Front 10

Positive Chvostek's sign

Back 10

occurs after tapping the facial nerve approx. 2cm from the earlobe. Unilateral twitching fo the facial mucscle occurs in hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia

Front 11

hypocalcemia total serum results

Back 11

less than 8.5

Front 12

hypercalcemia S&S

Back 12

muscle weakness, incoordination, lethargy, deep bone pain, flank pain, and pathologic fractures. Constipation, anorexia, nausea, vomiting,polyuria or polydipsia leading to uremia if not treated and renal colic caused by stone formation.

Front 13

Patients taking digitalis must take calcium with extreme care because

Back 13

it can precipitate severe dysrhythmias.

Front 14

total serum for hypercalcemia

Back 14

more 10.5

Front 15

S&S of hypomagnesemia

Back 15

one of the most underdiagnosed electrolyte deficiencies. hyperactive reflexes, coars tremors, muxcle cramps, positive chvosteks and trousseaus signs, seizures, parethesia of the feet and legs and painfully cold hands and feet. disorientation, dysrhytmias, tachcardia and increased potential for digitalis toxicity.

Front 16

serum magnesium for hypomagnesemia

Back 16

less than 1.5

Front 17

serum calcium and serum potassium for hypomagnesemia

Back 17

both decreased

Front 18

S&S hypokalemia

Back 18

may experience neuromuscular changes such as fatigue, muscle weakness, diminished deep tendon reflexes, and flaccid paralysis(late).
anorexia, nausea, vomiting, irritability(early), increased senitivity to digitalis, electrocardiographic changes adn death caused by cardiac arrest.
