Types of intravenous fluids 1.
Isotonic solutions
a. Fluids that approximate the osmolarity (280-300 mOsm/L) of normal blood plasma.
Sodium Chloride (0.9%) - Normal Saline
Indications:
Extracellular fluid replacement when Cl- loss is equal to or greater the Na loss.
Treatment of matebolic alkalosis.
Na depletion
Initiating and terminating blood transfusions.
Possible side effects:
Hypernatremia
Acidosis
Hypokalemia
Circulatory overload.
b. Fivepercent dextrose in water (D5W).
Provides calories for energy, sparring b ody protein and preventing ketosis resulting from fat breakdown.
Indications:
Dehydration
Hypernatremia
Drug administration
Possible side effects:
Hypokalemia
Osmotic diuresis – dehydration
Transient hyperinsulinism
Water intoxication.
c. Fivepercent dextrose in normal saline (D5NS).
Prevents ketone formation and loss of potassium and intracellular water.
Indications:
Hypovolemic shock – temporary measure.
Burns
Acute adrenocortical insufiency.
Possible side effects:
Hypernatremia
Acidosis
Hypokalemia
Circulatory overload
d. Isotonic multiple-electrolyte fluids.
Used for replacement therapy; ionic composition approximates blood plasma.
Types:
a. Plasmanate
b. Polysol
c. Lactated Ringers
Indications:
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Excessive diuresis
Burns
Possible side effects:
Circulatory overload.
Lactated Ringers is contraindicated in severe metabolic acidosis and/or alkalosis and liver disease.
Hypernatremia
Acidosis
Hypokalemia
2. Hypertonic solutions
Fluids with an osmolarity much higher than 310 mOsm (+ 50 mOsm); increase osm otic pressure of blood plasma, thereby drawing fluid from cells.
a. Tenpercent dextrose in normal saline
Administered in large vein to dilute and prevent venous trauma.
Indications:
Nutrition
Replenish Na and Cl.
Possible side effects:
Hypernatremia (excess Na)
Acidosis (excess Cl)
Circulatory overload.
b. Sodium Chloride solutions, 3% and 5% Indications:
3.
Slow administration essential to prevent overload (100 mL/hr)
Water intoxication
Severe sodium depletion
Hypotonic solutions Fluids whose osmolarity is significantly less than that of blood plasma (-50 mOsm); these fluids lower plasma osmotic pressure, causing fluid to enter cells.
a. 0.45% sodium chloride
Used for replacement when requirement for Na use is questionable.
b. 2.5% dextrose in 0.45% saline, also 5% in 0.2 % NaCl
Common rehydrating solution.
Indications:
Fluid replacement when some Na replacement is also necessary.
Encourage diuresis in clients who are dehydrated.
Evaluate kidney status before instituting electrolyte infusions.
Possible side effects:
Hypernatremia
Circulatory overload
Used with caution in clients who are edematous, appropriate electrolytes should be g iven to avoid hypokalemia.
Table of Commonly Used IV Solutions Name of Solution
Type of Solution Hypotonic pH 5.6
Ingredients in 1-Liter 77 mEq Sodium 77 mEq Chloride
water intoxication and dilution of body’s electrolytes with long, continuous infusions
Shorthand Notation: D5¼NS
5% Dextrose in 0.45 Sodium Chloride
pH 4.4
Shorthand Notation: D5½NS 5% Dextrose in Normal Saline
vein irritation because of acidic pH, causes agglomeration (clustering) if used with blood transfusions; hyperglycemia with rapid infusion leading to osmotic diuresis
isotonic hydration; replace electrolytes and extracellular fluid losses; mild to moderate acidosis (the lactate is metabolized into bicarbonate which counteracts the acidosis)
Shorthand Notation: LR
28 mEq Sodium Lactate (provides 9 calories/liter)
5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringer’s Injection Shorthand Notation: D5LR
hypertonic hydration; provides some calories; replace electrolytes and extracellular fluid losses; mild to moderate acidosis (the lactate is metabolized into bicarbonate which counteracts the acidosis), the dextrose minimizes glycogen depletion
excessive introduction of electrolytes and leads to fluid overload and congestive conditions; provides no calories and is not an adequate maintenance solution if abnormal fluid losses are present
not enough electrolytes for maintenance; patients with hepatic disease have trouble metabolizing the lactate; do not use if lactic acidosis is present
