IRAT 3 Flashcards
(48 cards)
movement of water across membrane in response to a solute concentration gradient
osmosis
characteristics of a solute
-nonpenetrating
-osmotically active
these 2 things guarantee osmosis will occur
osmotically active
solute can draw water - make it move
- molecule has charge/residues
osmolarity
g/v unit of concentration of solute
- concentration of osmotically active ions
is osmolarity static or no?
yes
tonicity
fluid thing, water is moving or moved or is about to move
iso-osmotic
have same number of particles
same osmolarity
what can you conclude from 2 fluid bags from different countries but both 360 mOsm/L
iso-osmotic
what can you conclude from 2 fluid bags - one is 300mOsm/L and another 360mOsm/L
the 300mOsm/L is hyposmotic to the 360 and the 360 is hyperosmotic to the 300
normal human cells have an osmolarity of…
300
osmolarity of 5% Dextrose
260 mOsm/L
osmolarity of 0.9% NaCl
300mOsm/L
osmolarity of 10% Dextrose
520mOsm/L
osmolarity D5NS
560 mOsm/L
total body water is a ratio of what
ICF to ECF
2/3 TBW =
ICF
1/3 TBW
ECF
ICF
cations K+ and Mg2+
anions = proteins and organic phosphates
ECF
interstitial fluid and plasma
major cation = Na+
major anions = HCO3 and Cl
plasma of ECF
25% ECF
albumin and globulins
lots of proteins
interstitial fluid localized to blood
interstitial fluid of ECF
75% ECF
lower proteins than ICF
fluid between cells - all cells in body
isotonic volume expansion
consumption of large volume of isotonic solution
ex: sugar free gatorade excess consumption - taking it into body and not isotonic blood volume increases
isosmotic volume contraction
diarrhea
loss of isotonic fluid
losing liquid and not replacing it
hyperosmotic expansion
excessive NaCl intake
osmolarity of ECF inc and ICF dec
ex: eating wings at a bar
