Graded A+)FIBA Agent Test
, Best indicator for fluid volume overload? Weight
Assessment for FVO - Bounding + increase pulse
- High BP
- Dyspnea, crackles, edema
- Decreased hematocrit, serum sodium, and urine specific gravity
Causes of FVO - ESRD, CHF, water intoxication, SIADH, corticosteroid therapy, rapid fluid
replacement
Treatment for FVO - Diuretics
- Fluid Restriction
- Salt restriction
- Monitor I&O's
intracellular fluid fluid within cells; 66%; 25 L
Extracellular fluid - Fluid outside the cell; 33%; 15L
- Most important for homeostasis
Homeostasis - Proper functioning of all body systems
- Extracellular (intravascular and interstitial fluid)
Fluid balance - 2 to 3 liters a day
- urine output 400-600 ml per day
- increases during stress, fever and tachy
Fluid Volume Deficit (FVD) (dehydration) - Increased HR; decreased B/P
- Lethargy; decreased UOP; dry mucous membranes; constipation; thirst
- Increased hemoconcentration; BUN; sodium; urine specific gravity
Causes of FVD vomiting, diarrhea, ileostomy, laxitives, burns, fever, diuretics, GI suctioning and
NPO
Interventions of FVD - Halt OTC
