1-4 iv
Macrodrip delivers how many drops per milliliter?
10,15,20
Which type of solution raises serum osmolarity and pulls fluid and electrolytes from the intracellular and interstitial compartments into the intravascular compartment?
Hypertonic solution
Microdrip delivers how many drops per milliliter?
60 gtt
Fluid volume and concentration are regulated by the interaction of two hormones
ADH and aldosterone
Hypotonic
Crystalloids dextrose 2.5% in water 0.33 % sodium chloride Half normal saline
What is 20% of body weight?
ECF
Major cation in ICF, necessary for cell function, essential for electrical activity of neurons and all muscle cells, maintains cell electroneutrality, plays a major role in acid-base balance.
(K+)Potassium
What safety mechanism on electric infusion devices prevents a rapid infusion.
Anti-free flow mechamim
What should you do before giving any infusion medication into the VAD
Asses the absence of resistance when flushed and presence of blood return
May increase the risk of life-threatening complications, such as pneumothorax, sepsis, thrombus, or perforation of the vessel and adjacent organ
CV therapy
Which electrolyte is critical for the blood coagulation process?
Calcium
Catheter partly backed out of vein
Catheter dislodgment
Intravascular infections can be prevented by which of the following precautions
Changing insertion sites
The major extracellular electrolytes are:
Chloride and sodium
First step in performing a routine venipuncture
Is to dilate the vein
What are signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia?
Lethargy, fatigue, constipation, anorexia, excessive amounts of urine (polyuria), excessive thirst (polydipsia), depressed reflexes, cardiac arrhythmias, and ECG changes
Isotonic
Normal Saline 0.9%, Dextrose 5% in water (D5W), Lactated Ringers are examples of this type of solution
Possible if the device isn't flushed to ensure patency before and after medication is infused
Occlusion
Loading dose, lockout interval, and maintenance doses are basic to this type of therapy
PCA therapy
The major intracellular electrolytes are:
Phosphorus and potassium
An intermittent infusion device
Saline lock
Weight loss, increased thready pulse, sunken eyes, dry conjunctivae, decreased tearing, increased thirst, dry mouth, mental status changes
Signs of Fluid Deficit
ncreased respiratory rate, weight gain, bounding pulses, generalized edema, periorbital edema
Signs of fluid overload
WHat are the 6 major electrolytes?
Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Chloride, Phosphorus, and Magnesium
Which is the most commonly used CVAD insertion site
Subclavian
Respiratory distress,unequal breath sounds weak pulse, increased central venous pressure,decreased BP and confusion
air embolism
The preferred skin antiseptic is?
alcoholic chlorhexidine
This will minimize the risk of catheter embolism
avoid reinserting the needle into an IV catheter?
The risk of using CVAD for routine blood sampling includes
bloodstream infection and anemia
Hypertonic
crystalloids dextrose 5% normal saline dextrose 5% in lactated ringers 3% sodium choloride
Along lateral and dorsal portions of fingers
digital veins
Floating blood clot
emblous
Top layer of skin
epidermis
Clinician responsibilities when preparing a patient for central IV therapy
explaining the procedure and care measures of the therapy

infilteration
When applying a transparent dressing it is important to?
mold the dressing around and under the hub
An infusion medication compounded by clinician is done for?
only urgent situation when the need is immediate
Redness at tip of catheter and along vein,puffy area over vein and hard palpation
phlebitis
Short peripheral catheters should be removed when?
signs and symptoms indicate a problem with the catheter
The tip of a central venous access device is inserted here
superior or inferior vena cava
The correct patient position for removing a CVAD from the jugular or subclavian vein is?
supine with head flat
IV medication may be indicated when?
the medication can't be absorbed by GI tract
inner layer of vein
tunica intima
When capillary blood pressure exceeds colloid osmotic pressure
water and diffusible solutes leave the capillaries and circulate into the ICF
