Is the fluid that bathes the cells
Transports red and white blood cells
Is the water contained inside the cells
Accounts for about 15% of body weight
Atoms that carry an electrical charge
Solutions that exclusively carry electrolytes
Solutions that contain dissolved components
The dissolved particles contained in a solvent
Negative,neutral

Selective permeability
Water moves from an area of higher solute concentration to an area of lower solute concentration
Solutes move from an area of lower water concentration to an area of higher water concentration
Water moves from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration
Solutes move from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower water concentration
Balance the concentration of water on both sides of the cell wall
Equalize solute concentrations on both sides of the cell membrane
Utilize ATP to actively move solutes across the cell membrane
Maintain a higher concentration of solutes outside of the cell
Velocity with which potassium ions shift outside of the cell and sodium ions shift inside the cell
Permeability of the cell and the ability of sodium and potassium to actively move across its membrane
Amount of antidiuretic hormone the body produces and the volume of water that is reabsorbed in the tubules of the kidneys
Concentration of sodium in a solution and the movement of water in relation to the sodium level inside and outside the cell
Bradypnea
Flushed, dry skin
Postural hypotension
Dry mucous membranes
Hypertension
Kidney failure
Gastroinestinal drainage
Prolonged hyperventilation
Edema
Oliguria
Weight gain
Shortness of breath
Isotonic solutions have almost the same osmolarity as bodily fluids
D5W becomes an isotonic solution once it is introduced into the body
Normal saline is the only isotonic solution used in the prehospital setting
Isotonic solutions expand the vascular space by shifting fluid from other compartments
Hypotonic until it is introduced into the body
Capable of carrying oxygen when it is infused
Of minimal value in expanding the vascular space
Also called normal saline and is an isotonic solution
Hypotension and severe hypovolemia
Hypertension and congestive heart failure
Dehydration secondary to excessive diarrhea
A history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
The body metabolizes the dextrose quickly and the solution becomes hypotonic
It causes fluid to shift from the intracellular space into the vascular space
Ellular uptake of dextrose occurs and the solution quickly becomes isotonic
It rapidly expands the vascular space and effectively increases blood pressure
Include normal saline and lactated Ringer's solution
Draw fluid from the cells and into the vascular space
Hydrate the cells while depleting the vascular compartment
Are the preferred solutions to use in patients with head trauma
Is the patients condition critical
Will the patient need medications
Has the patient had IV therapy before
Will the patient need fluid replacement
Colloid solutions
Hypotonic crystalloids
Hetastarch and saline
Isotonic crystalloids
Immediately
Within 24 hours
Within 36 hours
Within 48 hours
The IO space remains patent, even when peripheral veins have collapsed
The IO route is reserved for select medications and certain blood products
IO infusion should only be attempted in children younger than 6 years of age
Medication absorption occurs more slowly through the IO space than through the IV route
Not require a pressure infuser
Be easily removable in the bone
Rest and a 45 degree angle to the bone
Rest at a 90 degree angle to the bone
Manubrium of the sternum
Medial malleolus of the leg
Flat bone of the proximal tibia
Tibial tuberosity below the knee
Wait!
Here's an interesting quiz for you.
