NSG 120 test 1 Questions and Answers 100% Solved
1. Electrolytes that Na in ECF and K in ICF
use active trans-
port
2. Normal daily I/Os I's- 2,400-2,700
O's- 2,300-2,600
1ml/kg/hr
(Output should be just under input)
3. Isotonic solu- -Given for hypovolemia increases BP.
tions -Stays in the veins.
-0.9 sodium chloride this is normal saline, lactated ringers solution
-D5W (Dextrose in water) body absorbs dextrose leaves water.
4. Hypotonic solu- -Given for dehydration. Helps kidneys excrete solutes.
tions -Contains NA+Cl
-Swells the cells and can increase intercrainal pressure.
-0.45 NaCl
5. Hypertonic -3% NaCl
-Pulls water out of the cell (ICF to EFC)
-Only used in ICU typically decrease inter cranial pressure.
-Increases BP so used with antihypertensive.
6. Third spacing Fluid are in an unusable area not in ECF or ICF. (Edema, ascites)
7. Causes of hyper- Excessive sodium intake
natremia Water deprivation
Increased water loss through sweating, heatstroke, or diabetes insipidus
Administration of hypertonic tube feeding
8. Causes of hy- Diuretics
ponatremia GI fluid loss

Adrenal Insuflciency
Excess hypotonic solutions
SIADH
9. Causes of hy- Diuretics***
pokalemia GI fluid loss through
vomiting, gastric suction,or diarrhea
Steroid administration
Hyperaldosteronism
Anorexia or bulimia
-Can only replenish through food naturally.
10. Causes of Hyper- Typically only happens from giving pt too much.
kalemia Renal failure
Acidosis.
Can lead to cardiac arrest.
11. Hypokalemia -Cardiac rhythm changes
signs and -muscles weakness
symptoms -Anxiety
12. How to fix hyper- -Give Na bicarbonate
kalemia -Diuretics
-Kayexilate
-Insulin
-Monitor EKG
13. Signs and symp- Thirst
toms of hyperna- • Elevated Temp
tremia • Dry, swollen tongue
• Sticky mucosa
• Neurologic Sx
