Fluids, Electrolytes, and Goal-Directed Therapy Flashcards
(240 cards)
ICV represents
2/3 of TBW
ECV represents
1/3 of TBW
perioperative fluid mamangment involves:
- maintaining intravascular volume
- augmenting CO
- maintaining tissue perfusion
- promoting oxygen delivery
- correcting and maintaining electrolyte balance
- enhancing the microcirculatory flow
- facilitating the delivery of nutrients
- clearance of metabolic waste
TBW in an average adult represents
60% of lean body mass
primary cation and anion in the ECV
sodium, chloride
primary cation and anion in the ICV
potassium, phosphate
resting membrane gradient for these electrolytes is maintained by the
Na and K ATPase
cell membrane is permeable to
water
as a result of the ICV and the ECV maintain a state of osmotic equilibrium
daily fluid volume required to maintain TBW homeostasis
25-35 mL/kg per day or 2-3 L/day
ECV is further divided into
intravascular compartment
interstitial compartment
interstitial compartment represents
3/4 of the ECV
intravascular compartment represents
1/4 of the ECV
ECV is also composed of a small amount of
transcellular fluid:
- CSF
- GI secretions
- intraocular fluid
- synovial fluid
Transcellular fluids are anatomically __ from the fluid dynamics that impact the remaining ECV, therefore they are considered ___
isolated; nonfunctional
Capillary hydrostatic pressure (Pc)
is the intravascular blood pressure, driven by the force of the CO impacted by the vascular tone
Interstitial fluid pressure (Pif)
is the hydrostatic pressure of the interstitial space
Pif of most tissues is slightly __ ; this is thought to be d/t the contraction of __ vessels in the interstitum
negative; lymphatic
what has a slightly positive Pif?
rigid or encapsulated tissues of the kidneys, brain, bone marrow, and skeletal muscle
plasma oncotic pressire (πp)
is the osmotic force of collodial proteins of the vasular space
interstitial oncotic pressure (πif)
is the osmotic force of the colloidal proteins within the interstitial space
what protein is the primary determinant of both capillary and interstitial oncotic pressures?
albumin
Increase in Pc and πif favor
filtration of fluid into the interstitial space
increase in Pif and πp favor
absorption of fluid into the intravascular space
Increased Kf favors
filtration
