Phlebitis scale

(0) No symptoms


(1) erythema @ access site w or wo pain


(2) pain @ site w erythema and/or edema


(3) pain @ site w erythema and/or edema, STREAK FORMATION, PALPABLE VENOUS CORD


(4) pain @ site w erythema and/or edema, streak formation, palpable venous cord >2.54 CM, PURULENT DRAINAGE

IV complications

Local infection/ bleeding/ phlebitis/infiltration/ circulatory overload

(2) skin blanched, edema 2.54-15.2 cm, cool to touch, w or wo pain


(3) skin blanched, translucent, gross edema > 15.2 cm, cool to touch, mild-mod pain, possible numbness


(4) skin blanched, translucent, skin tight, leaking, skin discolored, gross edema >15.2 cm, pitting edema tissue, circulatory impairment, mod-severe pain, blood


Risk factors for FE

Age/ environment/ GI output/ chronic diseases/ trauma

Interstitial fluid

Located between cells & outside the blood vessels

Intravascular fluid

Liquid part of blood

Transcellular dluis

Secreted by epi cells( cerebrospinal, pleural, peritoneal, synovial fluids)

Cation

(+) charged ions


Na, K, Ca, Mg

Anion

(-) charged ions


Cl, Hc03

Active transport

Required energy from ATP 2 move electrolytes across cell membranes against the concentration gradient 4rm lower 2 higher concentrations



Ex- Na out of cell & K into cel

Diffusion

PASSIVE movement of electrolytes down a concentration gradient 4rm higher concentration to lower concentration


Diffuse easily by random movement


Requires proteins


Needs muscle/nerve function

Osmosis

WATER moves through a membrane that separates fluid w different particle concentrations



WATER moves into compartment that has a higher osmotic pressure (inward pulling force) until the particle concentration is equal in 2 compartments

Filtration

FLUID moves into/out of capillaries by filtration

Hydrostatic pressure (filtration)

Force of FLUID pressing outward against a surface

Colloids

2 large 2 leave capillaries in the fluid that's filtered so they stay in the blood

Edema

Accumulation of excess fluid in INTERSTITIAL space

Fluid intake average

2300 ml/ day

Fluid output

Skin, lungs, GI, KIDNEYS



100 ml in feces a day



Should equal intake

Hypokalemia s/s

Muscle weakness, cardiac dsyrhythmias, leg cramps, quadricep weakness, shallow respirations, decreased GI motility, polyuria

Hyperkalemia s/s

Muscle weakness, cardiac arrest, dsyrthmias, flaccid , increased bowel motility, nausea, diarrhea, paresthesias, Oliguria, ecg changes

Hypocalcemia s/s

Increased neuromuscular excitability, pos Chvostek's sign, pos Trousseau's sign, hyperactive DTR, laryngospasm, paresthesias of fingers, muscle twitching
