NUR 339 Exam 15

  • active transport

low -> high needs energy

movement of solutes from area of lower concentration to higher concentration *requires energy

  • osmosis

movement of water from area of more water (less solutes) to less water (more solutes) through semipermeable membrane

  • Regular insulin

given IV DKA/HHS; acute/emergency used with NPH

sliding scale 30-45m before meals

*hypoglycemia more likely during peak onset

30m-1h (IV 15-30m)

peak

2-3h duration

5-7h 1 / 3

  • rapid acting lispro insulin

use

faster onset, shorter duration

  • used with NPH
  • 15m before meals
  • slidin
  • g scale onset

15 min peak

1-3h duration

3-8h

  • electrolytes

substances that dissociate in solution to charged particles (ions)

  • interstitial hydrostatic pressure

opposes movement of water out of capillary, normally negative

  • fluid volume overload

intake > output

  • Capillary colloidal osmotic pressure 2 / 3

osmotic pressure generated by plasma proteins too large to pass through pores of capillary wall, pulls fluids back into capillary

"c" - collide together

  • Chloride

Major ECF anion

key role in acid-base & osmotic balance and energy (ATP)

  • electrolyte key functions

regulate water transmit nerve impulses & muscle contractions acid-base balance

energy generation blood clotting

  • D5W in 0.45% NaCl

hypotonic solution used TKO & supply calories for cell metabolism used when running fluids slowly

  • diffusion

movement of solutes from an area of high concentration to lower concentration direction opposite of osmosis

  • hypokalemia
  • / 3
