Body Fluid Composition
Total body water (TBW) is 60% of adult weightIntracellular fluid (ICF): 45% Extracellular fluid: 15%
Interstitial fluid Intravascular fluid
Fluids are composed of solutions (solvent and solute).

Interstitial fluid (or tissue fluid) is a solution that bathes and surrounds the cells of multicellular animals. It is the main component of the extracellular fluid, which also includes plasma and transcellular fluid. The interstitial fluid is found in the interstitial spaces, also known as the tissue spaces.

metabolic acidosis
In medicine, is a condition that occurs when the body produces too much acid or when the kidneys are not removing enough acid from the body. If unchecked, metabolic acidosis leads to acidemia, i.e., blood pH is low (less than 7.35) due to increased production of hydrogen ions by the body or the inability of the body to form bicarbonate (HCO3-) in the kidney. Its causes are diverse, and its consequences can be serious, including coma and death. Together with respiratory acidosis, it is one of the two general causes of acidemia

Metabolic alkalosis
Metabolic alkalosis is a metabolic condition in which the pH of tissue is elevated beyond the normal range ( 7.35-7.45 ). This is the result of decreased hydrogen ion concentration, leading to increased bicarbonate, or alternatively a direct result of increased bicarbonate concentrations

Abnormal States of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance:
A healthy body maintains a balance between intake and output of fluids and electrolytes. Homeostasis: internal environment’s
resistance to change
A healthy person loses approximately 2 to 2.5 L of fluid daily.

Abnormal States of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
Dehydration is an inadequate total systemic fluid volume.Causes:
Diarrhea
Vomiting
Gastrointestinal drainage
Infections
Metabolic disorders
![Page 15: Part 3 Medication Administration Body Fluid Composition EMS 353 Lecture 8 Dr. Maha Khalid](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649dbb5503460f94aad545/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Abnormal States of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
Over hydration occurs when the body systemic fluid volume increases.
Causes:Unmonitored IVs
Kidney failure
Water intoxication in endurance sports
Prolonged hypoventilation

IV Fluid Composition
Each bag of IV solution is individually sterilized.Altering IV
concentration can move water into or out of fluid compartment

IV solution
CrystalloidColloid
clear fluids made up of water and electrolyte solutions;
Will cross a semi-permeable membrane e.g Normal, hypo
and hypertonic saline solutions; Dextrose
solutions; Ringer’s lactate and Hartmann’s solution.
Gelatinous solutions containing particles suspended in solution. These particles will not form a
sediment under the influence of gravity and are largely unable
to cross a semi-permeable membrane. e.g. Albumin,
Dextrans, Hydroxyethyl starch [HES]; Haemaccel and
Gelofusine

Blood Volume–Expanding Solutions
• Crystalloid solutions– Isotonic: Same tonicity as human blood– Examples: Normal saline, lactated Ringer’s– Hypotonic: Lower concentrations of
electrolytes than blood – Hypertonic: Higher concentrations of
electrolytes than blood • Colloid solutions
– Use undergoing debate

1) 0.9% Normal Saline
• Think of it as ‘Salt and water’• Principal fluid used for intravascular
resuscitation and replacement of salt loss e.g diarrhoea and vomiting
• Contains: Na+ 154 mmol/l, K+ - Nil, Cl- - 154 mmol/l; But K+ is often added
2) Lactated Ringer's solution
• is a solution that is isotonic with blood and intended for intravenous administration. It may also be given subcutaneously. Lactated Ringer's solution is grouped with intravenous fluids known as "crystalloids" – which include saline and dextrose solutions

3) 5% Dextrose
Think of it as ‘Sugar and Water’Primarily used to maintain water balance in patients who are not able to take anything by mouth
