23
Q

non tunneled CVC

A

insert through subclavian in upper chest or jugular vein, tip resides in superior vena cava, CXR to confirm, used in emergency, more short term

24
Q

Implanted port

A

not visible, place upper chest, need to flush after each use and monthly with heperin, pts need iv therepy longer than 1 yr.

25
Q

Hemodialysis Catheter

A

Very large lumen, can be tunneled or ot, critical renal management, use heperin flush, not used for other things except in emergency

26
Q

Iso tonic Solutions

A

NaCL 0.9%, NS w/electrolytes,Normosol R, D5W (ISO in Bag, HYPER in body)

27
Q

Hypertonic Solutions

A

D5NS, DS 1/2 NS, D5LR,

28
Q

Hypotonic solution

A

1/2 Normal Saline

29
Q

What fluid do you not use in kidney pts

A

Lactated Ringers

30
Q

Do not use what in head injury pts (Can cause cerebral edema)

A

Dextrose

31
Q

what does hypertonic solution do

A

corrects fluid, electrolyte and acid base by moving water out of cell and into bloodstream

32
Q

what does hypotonic solutions do

A

moves water into cell and expands them

33
Q

what does isotonic solution do

A

water does not move in or out of cell, risk for fluid overload.
