Frage Antworten
Intracellular fluid the fluid within cells
Extracellular fluid all the fluid outside the cells,
Intracellular dehydration the loss of or deprivation of water from the body or tissues
Electrolytes are substances that are capable of breaking into particles called ions.
Major cations (+) sodium, potassium, calcium, hydrogen, and magnesium ions
Major anions (-) chloride, bicarbonate, and phosphate
Solvents liquids that hold a substance in solution
Solutes substances that are dissolved in a solution
Osmosis water passes from an area of lower solute concentration and more water to an area of greater solute concentration and less water
Osmolarity The concentration of particles in a solution, or its pulling power
Isotonic When a solution has about the same concentration of particles, or osmolarity, as plasma
Hypertonic When a solution has a greater osmolarity than plasma
Hypotonic When a solution has less osmolarity than plasma
Diffusion the tendency of solutes to move freely throughout a solvent. The solute moves from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration until equilibrium is established
Active transport process that requires energy for the movement of substances through a cell membrane, against the concentration gradient, from an area of lesser solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration
Capillary filtration results from the force of blood “pushing” against the walls of the capillaries.
Hydrostatic pressure The force that pushes fluid out of the capillaries and into the interstitial space
Colloid osmotic pressure the force that pulls fluids back into the capillaries from the interstitial space
pH The unit of measure used to describe acid–base balance
Acidosis the condition characterized by an excess of H ions or loss of base ions (bicarbonate) in ECF in which the pH falls below 7.35.
Alkalosis when there is a lack of H ions or a gain of base (bicarbonate) and the pH exceeds 7.45
Buffer a substance that prevents body fluids from becoming overly acidic or alkaline
Hypovolemia caused by a loss of both water and solutes in the same proportion from the ECF space; isotonic fluid loss
Third spacing a distributional shift of body fluids into the transcellular compartment, such as the pleural, peritoneal (ascites), or pericardial areas; joint cavities; the bowel; or an excess accumulation of fluid in the interstitial space.
Hypervolemia excess of isotonic fluid in the extracellular fluid space
Edema Accumulation of fluid in the interstitial space
Hypernatremia/Hyponatremia Excessive sodium concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in sodium concentration in ECF
Hypermagnesemia/Hypomagnesemia Excessive magnesium concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in magnesium concentration in ECF
Hyperphosphatemia/Hypophosphatemia Excessive phosphate concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in phosphate concentration in ECF
Hyperkalemia/Hypokalemia Excessive potassium concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in potassium concentration in ECF
Hypercalcemia/Hypocalcemia Excessive calcium concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in calcium concentration in ECF
Hyperchloremia/Hypochloremia Excessive chloride concentration in the ECF/ Deficit in chloride concentration in ECF
metabolic acidosis deficit of bicarbonate concentration in ECF
Metabolic alkalosis excess of HCO3 concentration in ECF
Respiratory acidosis primary excess of carbonic acid in the ECF
Respiratory alkalosis primary deficit of carbonic acid in the ECF
Arterial blood gases laboratory tests commonly used to determine the adequacy of oxygenation and ventilation,
