|
what is the average blood volume for an adult
|
70 ml/kg
|
|
what is the average blood volume for the elderly
|
65 ml/kg
|
|
crystalloids for replacement fluids are generally what type of fluids
|
polyionic isotonic fluids
|
|
what type of crystlloids closely mimic plasma electrolyte concentrations
|
*LR
*Plamalyte 148 *Plasmalyte A |
|
what are colliod solutions
|
usually solution of starch or dextrans of various molecular wts
|
|
what are colloids designed for
|
to remain in the vascular space increasing osmotic pressure
(helps maintain intravascular fluid volume) |
|
what type of problems are associated with colloids
|
*allergic rxns
*impaired coagualation *renal damage |
|
what blood product contains colloids, clotting factors including plts, and RBC for o2 carrying capacity
|
whole blood
|
|
why is stored whole blood not as useful as fresh blood
|
d/t reduced o2 carrying capacity, plts are inactive and clotting factors may degrade
|
|
what blood product is useful in treating anemia
|
packed RBC
|
|
what blood product reduces the risk of overload
|
PRBC
|
|
what should be done with PRBC
|
reconstitute with equal volumes of 0.9% saline
|
|
what does fresh plasma contain
|
*colloids
*active plts *clotting factors |
|
what blood product is useful in treating coagulation defects
|
fresh plasma
|
|
frozen plamsa can be stored for how long
|
1 year
|
|
frozen plasma is a source of what
|
colloids (plasma proteins)
|
|
what is the difference b/t LR and NaCl
|
LR contains Ca and NaCl does NOT
|
|
what is the FIRST sign of HYPOnatremia
|
confusion
|
|
what makes up the blood brain barrier
|
tight intracellular clefts
