Dextrose 5% in 0.9% Normal Saline (D5 0.9%NS)
Dextrose 5% in Lactated Ringers (D5LR)
(HYPERTONIC= Higher osmolarity than body fluid)
0.45% Saline (1/2 NS)
List common Types of D5W (starts Isotonic -becomes hypotonic as dextrose
Hypotonic Solutions? is taken up by cells
(HYPOTONIC =Lower osmolarity than body fluid)
Hypertonic: (fluids > 300 mOsm/L)
What does Hypertonic having a greater concentration of solute than another
mean? solution. Water moves across a semipermeable
membrane into a hypertonic solution.
Why are isotonic solutions There is a greater risk of fluid overload because water
contraindicated in patients does not move into or out of the body's cells with
with Congestive Heart isotonic solutions.

Disease and the Elderly?
Hypotonic: (fluids < 270 mOsm/L)
having less concentration of solute than another

mean?
membrane out of a hypertonic solution into the other
solution.
