Document Summary
Nur1 323 lecture 3 notes: fluid and electrolyte balance. In first spacing, the right fluid is found in the right compartments. Icf accounts for 2/3 of the total body fluid. Ecf accounts for 1/3 of the total body fluid. Isf accounts for about 75% of the ecf. The elderly total body water is reduced: ecf: transcellular compartment. Pericardial, pleural, pancreatic, intraocular, biliary, peritoneal, synovial fluid. Fluid in the gi tract: ecf: fluid in gi tract. Ng tube: fluid distribution maintained by, second spacing. Abnormal accumulation of isf edema: third spacing. Accumulation of fluid in areas that normally have no fluid or only a minimum amount of fluid (ex: peritoneal cavity, scrotum, pleural space, pericardium) This fluid is unavailable or trapped for functional use and is not easily exchanged with the. Abnormal accumulation of abdominal fluids ascites. Usage of tap to drain the fluid: atrial natriuretic peptide (anp) Causes atrial vasodilation: maintenance fluid requirements.
