- store and released from posterior pituitary
Quiz :ADH pathway - Answer :- hypothalamus senses low blood volumed and
increased serum osmolality
- signal pituitary to release ADH
- ADH causes kidney to retain water
- water retention increases blood volume and decreases serum osmolality
Quiz :ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide) - Answer :- cardiac hormone stored in atria
- released when atrial pressure increases
*works opposite of RAAS by decreasing BP and reducing intravascular volume
- important diagnostic marker in CHF
Quiz :hydrostatic pressure - Answer :- forces fluids and solutes through the
capillary wall and into the tissue spaces
Quiz :colloid osmotic pressure - Answer :- pulling force of albumin in the
intravascular spaces
- pull fluid into vasculature
Quiz :maintenance fluid therapy - Answer :- replaces normal ongoing losses of
water and electrolytes (urine, sweat, respiration, stool)

- D5NS

Quiz :colloids - Answer :- pull fluid into bloodstream
Albumin

- 25% draws 4 times the normal volume into the circulation
Quiz :blood - Answer :- not a risk free fluid replacement

Quiz :third spacing - Answer :- fluid is not lost from the body but the fluid is not
available for use in the intracellular or extracellular compartments (fluid is in

Quiz :different ways to treat hyponatremia - Answer :- hypovolemic (give IV
fluid)
- euvolemic (fluid restriction)
- hypervolemic (diuretic)
Quiz :severe hyponatremia - Answer :- EMERGENCY
- below 115
- give hypertonic saline if patient is symptomatic
- in ICU setting
*infused slowly in small amounts....be prepared to handle seizures*
Quiz :hypokalemia ECG changes - Answer :- prolonged QT
- ST depression
*U WAVE is hallmark sign*
if you see a U wave then YOU need K+
