The health care provider should be contacted since the patient cannot sign the informed consent
form for treatment. It is the health care provider's responsibility, not the pharmacist's nor the
dietician's, to make certain that the patient understands the reason for treatment. The nurse
should not encourage the patient to sign the consent form when the patient does not understand
the reason for treatment.
Based on the condition of the patient, an intravenous fluid that is hypotonic will be ordered.
Which intravenous fluid is most likely to be ordered by the health care provider?
Normal saline
5% dextrose and normal saline (D5NS)
5% dextrose and lactated Ringer (D5LR)

0.33% NaCl - answer✔0.33% NaCl
Of the fluids listed, the only one that is hypotonic is 0.33% NaCl. Normal saline is isotonic; both
D5NS and D5LR are considered to be hypertonic solutions.
Which statement accurately describes the total body water (TBW) composition compared to
weight?
A 70 kilogram (154 lb) 40-year-old man is 40% water.
A 6 kilogram (13.2 lb) 2-month-old neonate is 75% to 80% water.
A 60 kilogram 70-year-old is 75% water.

A 3 kg 2-week-old is 95% water. - answer✔A 6 kilogram (13.2 lb) 2-month-old neonate is 75%
to 80% water.The TBW of a 70 kg (154 lb) man is approximately 60% (40 L). This percentage
varies with age, sex, and percentage of body fat. Neonates are 75% to 80% water, whereas older
adults are 45% to 55% water. Women tend to have less body water than men due to the effects of
hormones and higher amount of adipose tissue, which contains very little water.
The nurse is preparing to administer a transfusion of a blood product. What is the most
appropriate intravenous fluid to hang as a maintenance infusion?
