ACTUAL Exam Questions and CORRECT
Answers
Osmolality - CORRECT ANSWER - amount of particles within a fluid contributing to a
fluid's concentration


- High osmolality: hypertonic solution
- balanced osmolality: isotonic solution
- Low osmolality: hypotonic solution


Hydrostatic pressure - CORRECT ANSWER - A force pressing outward against a surface



Osmotic pressure - CORRECT ANSWER - an inward pulling pressure towards a higher
concentration


Diffusion - CORRECT ANSWER - passive movement of particles down a concentration
gradient


Active Transport - CORRECT ANSWER - using energy to move electrolytes across cell
membrane


Fluid moves to the cell in the following order: - CORRECT ANSWER - 1. Vascular
System
2. Capillary Membrane
3. Interstitial Area
4. Cell Membrane


Osmolality Imbalance - CORRECT ANSWER - the blood is too concentrated/dilute

, Labs to Measure Osmolality - CORRECT ANSWER - Osmolality Specific- most
accurate!!


Urine Specific Gravity-


Hgb & Hct- the higher the Hct, the higher the osmolality


Sodium levels- water follows salt!! If sodium is elevated, then osmolality is elevated


Types of IV Fluids - CORRECT ANSWER -



Hypertonic Solution - CORRECT ANSWER - - Concentrated and usually given when
Blood Osmolality is Low
- Combination of Dextrose & Saline together W/ Water makes these fluids hypertonic
- Help draw fluid back into the Vascular Space= decreasing edema
- Low Blood Osmolality + Hypertonic Fluid = Isotonic Blood


- D5 NaCl
- D5 LR
- D5 0.45% NaCl


Isotonic Solution - CORRECT ANSWER - - Used for dehydration
- Equal balance Particles and Water
- Normal Blood Osmolality + Isotonic Fluid = No change in Isotonic Blood


-0.9% NaCl
- LR
