- ANSWER: Findings associated with fluid volume excess include cough, dyspnea,
crackles, tachypnea, tachycardia, an elevated blood pressure, a bounding pulse, an
elevated central venous pressure, weight gain, edema, neck and hand vein
distention, an altered level of consciousness, and a decreased hematocrit level.
Potassium-rich - ANSWER: gastrointestinal (GI) fluids are lost through GI suction,
which places the client at risk for hypokalemia
- ANSWER: Cushing's syndrome or diarrhea and the client who has been overusing
laxatives are at risk for hypokalemia
hyperkalemia - ANSWER: Clients who experience the cellular shifting of potassium,
as in the early stages of massive cell destruction (i.e., with trauma, burns, sepsis, or
metabolic or respiratory acidosis), are at risk for hyperkalemia
Sensible - ANSWER: are those that the person is aware of, such as those that occur
through wound drainage, GI tract losses, and urination.
Insensible losses - ANSWER: may occur without the person's awareness. Insensible
losses occur daily through the skin and the lungs.

Hypertonic solutions (higher concentrations of particles) - ANSWER: 3% sodium
chloride protein solutions comes in 10, 50, 70% dextrose
Colloid solutions - ANSWER: contain solutes of higher molecular weight than the
serum
examples
Plasmanate, dextra, hespan, salt poor albumin
