QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS; 100%
PASS GUARANTEED; GRADED A+
0.9% NS - correct answer- 1. Restores NaCl
deficits, no free h20 or cals.
2. Used to treat hemorrhage, severe vomiting or diarrhea,
shock, some hyponatremia, metabolic acidosis, fluid
resuscitation
3. 1L of NS will increase the intravascular volume by
180ml
1. Can cause a hyperchloremic acidosis.
Is the only solution that can be given with blood
transfusions
1. Baseline Fluid Requirements - correct answer-
a. Non 70kg adult
i. For the first 10 kg of body weight: 100mg/kg/day

iii. For the weight above 20kg: 20ml/kg/day
, 1. Caution dextrose solutions - correct answer-
a. Will lower Na and potassium levels. Don't give if he has
low Na.
b. Can cause water intoxication by diluting the
electrolytes
c. Renal failure or cardiac issues- it will cause fluid
overload
d. At risk for increase intracranial pressure- will worsen
cerebral edema
e. Don't use to treat fluid deficits- it will dilute plasma
electrolytes
f. Do not use for resuscitation- it won't stay in the
intravascular space
g. Avoid use in persons with uncontrolled diabetes
(elevated glucose)
Contraindicated in person with SIADH. Will worsen
