absence of endogenous insulin; possibly the result of an autoimmune
process. - CORRECT ANSWERS-DM type 1
Inadequate endogenous insulin and body's ability to properly use insulin -
CORRECT ANSWERS-DM type II
What is the role of insulin? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Glucose metabolism,
synthesis of fatty acids and proteins
Disorder that typically involves a group of factors - HTN, obesity, and high
blood sugar - CORRECT ANSWERS-Metabolic Syndrome
Ability to maintain stability while continually adjusting to changes necessary
for survival; illness or death may occur when not maintained - CORRECT
ANSWERS-Homeostasis
, Are most body fluids inside the cell or extracellular? - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Intracellular
Most abundant electrolyte and primary in ICF. Regulates body fluid volumes,
muscular activity, nerve conduction, and acid-base balance - CORRECT
ANSWERS-Sodium
Mostly in ICF, critical in transmission of nerve impulses. Imbalances in this
electrolyte can lead to leg cramps, muscle spasms, cardiac arrhythmias -
CORRECT ANSWERS-Potassium
Combines with phosphorus to form mineral salts of bones and teeth. Helps
maintain strong bones and teeth, transmission of nerve impulses, regulation
of normal muscle contraction and relaxation. - CORRECT ANSWERS-Calcium
Most abundant cation in ICF. Has role in metabolism of carbs and proteins,
storage and use of intracellular energy, and neural transmission. Important
in function of heart, nerves, muscles. - CORRECT ANSWERS-Magnesium
What is the normal urine osmolality? - CORRECT ANSWERS-250-1200 (high is
concentrated, low is dilute)
1 liter of fluid is equal to how many pounds? - CORRECT ANSWERS-2.2 lbs
What type of fluid is given for deficient fluid volume (hypovolemia)? -
CORRECT ANSWERS-Isotonic
What type of fluid is given for dehydration? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Hypertonic
What are assessment findings for those with deficient fluid volume? -
CORRECT ANSWERS-Tenting, poor skin turgor, flattened jugular veins,
increased sodium, Hgb & Hct, K(due to concentration); weight loss, thirst
What are assessment findings for those with excess fluid volume? - CORRECT
ANSWERS-Edema to feet and ankles, JVD, puffy eyes, increased and
bounding pulses, increased BP and RR, adventitious lung sounds, pulmonary
edema, SOB, weight gain, decreased hgb and hit, RBCs, sodium;
What foods are high in potassium? - CORRECT ANSWERS-oranges, bananas,
sweet potatoes, avocados
What is the normal HCO3 level? - CORRECT ANSWERS-21-28 (metabolic
regulation)
What is the normal cO2 level? - CORRECT ANSWERS-35-45 mmHg
(respiratory regulation)
