Na restriction increase fluid intake :dilute sodium
40
IVF of choice for hypernatremia
hypotonic
41
Diet for hyponatremia
Fluid restriction Nacl- table salt NaNitrate- preservatives NaSaccharide- sweetener NaAscorbate- alkali vitamin c NaHCO3- Baking soda MSG- monosodium glutamate (vetsin)
42
IVF of choice for Hyponatremia
Hypertonic Isotonic (0.9% nacl)
43
Tall/ peak/ dominant T-waves
Hyperkalemia
44
Flattened T-waves
Hypokalemia
45
ST depression
hypokalemia
46
Presence of U waves
Hypokalemia (digitalis toxicity)
47
ST elevation
Hyperkalemia
48
Widening of QRS
hyperkalemia
49
narrowing of QRS
hypokalemia
50
Diet for hypokalemia
ABCDK Apple Banana Citrus/catalope Dried fruits (raisins, prune, apricots, dates) Kiwi
51
DOC: for hypokalemia (oral)
Kalium durule
52
DOC: for hypokalemia (IV)
KCL
53
Nursing alert for KCL IV:
Never IV push Incorporate in suloset
54
DOC: Hyperkalemia antidote
Calcium gluconate (antidote) -it doesn't treat hyperkalemia but lowers HR -Lower muscle contraction
55
DOC: hyperkalemia
kayexelate -na polysterone -exchange sodium to potassium -eliminate thru stool
56
Side effect of Kayexelate
Hypernatremia Effect is within 4-6 hours
57
d5w + d50w = iv
glucose-Insulin infusion -Increase blood sugar = decrease k -effect: within 30 minutes -k+ follows glucose into cells -insulin transport glucose into cells
58
pushes potassium into the cell
salbutamol/albuterol
59
excrete potassium into urine
k+ wasting diuretic (furosemide/lasix)
60
DOC FOR HYPERKALEMIA (SATA)
-kayexelate: exchange na to k -glucose-insulin infusion: follows glucose in the cell -salbutamol/ albuterol: pushes k into the cells -potassium wasting diuretic (furosemide/lasix): excrete k+ -hemodialysis: eliminates excess electrolytes
61
electrolyte that intitiate muscle contracton (large & skeletal muscles)
Calcium
62
The effect of ___ is opposite to ___ electolytes.
k+ & ca+
63
Electrolyte manifestation: increase Muscle contraction high RR (hyperventilation) increase mental alertness insomnia muscle spasm leg cramps fatigue (hypercontraction) facial twitching extreme facial twitching osteoporosis
hypocalcemia
64
decrease muscle contraction (relaxation) low HR & RR (hypoventilation) decrease mental alertness drowsiness lethargy muscle weakness fatigue apathy renal calculi (stones)
hypercalcemia
65
DIET: hypercalemia
Low calcium High sodium: it excretes ca+ increase fluidi ntake
66
DOC for hypocalemia
calcium gluconate & Amphogel calcium gluconate -never give ca+ in NSS -Given in D5 containing IV "SODIUM LOSSES CALCIUM" Amphogel -phosphate binder -increase ca+ in blood
67
DOC for hypercalcemia
Mitharcin & Magnesium Sulfate Mitharcin -block parathyroid hormone to absorb ca+ in blood Magnesium Sulfate -maintains ca+ in bone
68
DIET: HYPOCALCEMIA
-Increase ca+ diet -milk dairy products -anchioves (cheapest) -ca+ supplement -vit D supplement= absorb of calcium
69
CARDIAC ARREST
METABOLIC ACIDOSIS =(-) blood flow; leads to cell deprivation of O2 (alkaline) ; results to METABOLIC ACIDOSIS. =Give sodium bicarbonate
70
IVF for crash collision
Mannitol -Returns fluids into blood vessels from cells
71
DM pt with 300mg/dl RBS; Whats the nursing Dx
FLUID VOLUME DEFICIT -Excess sugar dehydrates the Cell.
72
Mr. Rey is admitted in the ER. Suffered from vehicular accident and develops cerebral edema. Unconscious GCS=6. Which fluid should the nurse questioned? A.D5LRS B.D50.9% NaCl C.0.33% NaCl- D.D5 half saline
A.D5LRS-hyper B.D50.9% NaCl -hyper ////***C.0.33% NaCl- hypo D.D5 half saline--hyper
73
The nurse is caring for Mrs. C with dx DM insulin dependent. Pt complains of Excess thirst. Blood sugar= 200 mg/dl and pt develops polyuria at night. Which fluids should be administered.
HYPOTONIC IVF.
74
What electrolytes is being withhold with pt. Mieniere Disease?
Ménière disease -is a disorder caused by build of fluid in the chambers in the inner ear. Nurses withhold sodium minerals. -Sodium restriction to reduce fluid pressure in the inner ear.
75
presence of U-wave is due to
Hypokalemia due to Digitalis toxicity

KCL
80
pt with renal failure with K+ level of 6.8 meq was given calcium gluconate, what is the primary purpose of Calcium gluconate
