HYDRATION PT.2 Flashcards
“normal” body water content within homeostatic range
euhydration
*the process of dynamic loss of body water
e.g., the transition from euhydration to hypohydration
dehydration
*the process of dynamic gain of body water (via fluid intake)
e.g., the transition from hypohydration to euhydration
rehydration
state of body water deficit
hypohydration
state of body water excess
over/hyperhydration
water % body mass
approx 50-70%
Total body water
0.73 x FFM
extracellular fluid (ECF)
35-45% of TBW
intracellular fluid (ICF)
55-65% of TB
Is the most abundant electrolyte in the extracellular space
Sodium (Na+)
Controls water movement between fluid compartments
Sodium
body water deficit
hypohydration
decreased plasma volume
Hypovolemia
increased plasma osmolality (concentration of dissolved solutes, mostly sodium, in the blood)
hyperosmolarity
lower stroke volume and higher heart rate
↑ Cardiovascular strain
