2026 QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS
◉ Powerpoints
Which IV solution is the closest to our body's plasma
A. NS 0.9%
B. Lactate Ringer
C. NS 0.45%
D. D5W. Answer: A. NS 0.9%
◉ Powerpoints
Which IV solution is isotonic but once in our body becomes
hypotonic
A. NS 0.9%
B. Lactate Ringer
C. NS 0.45%
D. D5W. Answer: D. D5W
,(body uses sugar as fuel and only water left)
*** do not give to head injury patients or babies bc of possible
cerebral edema
◉ Powerpoints
Which IV solution is known as plasma expander
A. NS 0.9%
B. Lactate Ringer
C. NS 0.45%
D. Dextran. Answer: D. Dextran
stays in the vascular compartment. Is given if saline solution wasn't
enough.
◉ powerpoints
Serum Osmoality is 280. What type of IV solution due you think will
be given?
,A. NS 0.9%
B. Lactate Ringer
C. NS 0.45%
D. Dextran. Answer: A. NS 0.9%
Serum osmolality: 275-295
Within normal levels...thus, we give solution that is most like our
body...no need to disrupt well balanced electrolytes...so NS 0.9% is
given since most like our body
◉ Powerpoints
Which intervention would most likely be used in severe case of
hypekalemia
A. Diuretics
B. Kayexalate
C. IV infusion of dextrose and insulin
D. hemodialysis. Answer: D. hemodialysis
, Diuretics --> mild hyperkalemia
Kayexalate--> mild to moderate
IV infusion of dextrose and insulin--> moderate
◉ Powerpoints
What happens to the urine specific gravity when a patient is
hypervolemia?
Increases or decreases ?. Answer: Urine specific gravity decreases
(urine diluted)
the higher the number the more dehydrated→ so someone who has
too much water will have a VERY LOW NUMBER)
◉ What happens to the BUN level when a patient is hypovolemia?
Increases or decreases ?. Answer: Increases
◉ Nursing intervention for dehydration (select all that apply)
