Across
2.What are assessed when checking for changes in some electrolytes, especially magnesium (Abbrev)
5.Be prepared for an EKG, palpitations may ensue. Levels above 5.0mEq/L
9.Regulatory organs of acid base control; quicker response to imbalances
10.Symptoms include: peripheral edema, crackles in lung fields, labored breathing, hypertension, and fatigue on exertion
11.Tonicity or concentration of solutes within fluid; amount of salts and electrolytes dissolved
12.Fluids in tissues instead of in the vessels
17.Ions that are necessary for cellular activity and metabolism
18.Urine measure of osmolality concentration; more solute, more dehydration, higher specific gravity reading
24.pH 7.27, paCO2 53, HCO3 24
25.Electrically charged molecules
26.Sign of hypocalcemia easily assessed by facial twitch.
27.pH 7.30, paCO2 45, HCO3 19
29.Solute concentration outside cell is lower than inside; in iv fluids means lower than blood concentration normally
30.Main excretory gas; measure of acidic level of ABG in blood
32.Fluid within cell
33.This really affects those reflexes if levels are above or below normal at 1.7-2.7 mEq/L
37.pH 7.5, pa CO2 29, HCO3 24
38.Lower Renal ___________ may reduce filtration rates and capabilities
40.Main method of regulating fluid balance; main sensible fluid output
41.Hypomagnesemic response
43.Closed system that encompasses lungs, kidneys, cardiac and all other organs, and moves fluids.
44.Medication such as furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide; have that urinal ready
46.Watch for constipation, fatigue and muscle spasms; level below 3.5 mEq/L
48.Fluid volume excess may express symptoms of this in the lung fields
49.concentration of solutes is greater than inside the cells
51.One of the main electrolytes that with minor fluctuations has big effects
52.Blood urea nitrogen (Abbrev) measure of kidney function
53.The great volumizer
54.One of the big six electrolytes; main component of bones and has inverse relation with calcium
Down
1.Best way to monitor fluid gain or loss
3.Noticeable with hypocalcemia
4.Filtration apparatus of kidney
6.Balance, man.
7.Calcium and Phosphorous have this type of relationship in the blood
8.Loss of total fluid volume
10.Weakness or low tone in muscles; noticeable with hypermagnesemia
13.Not enough water on board! May have elevated everything else.
14.Lab measure of certain gasses within blood to assess emergent pH changes
15.Sodium level below 135 mEq/L
16.pH 7.48, paCO2 36, HCO3 35
19.Renin is bleeding! System to attempt to increase volume by constriction when hypovolemic
20.Pressure of proteins pulling water inward to vessels
21.Pressure pushing outward on vessel walls by fluid contained
22.Fluid overload
23.Maintain diet low in this for better hypertension reduction
28.Ion that when free can lead to creation of carbonic acid or bicarbonate; too much or too little can lead to emergent situations
31.negatively charged molecule; electrolytes with negative charge
34.Loop diuretic that decreases volume in circulation by excretion of urine with increased water and sodium. May also cause excessive potassium loss.
35.Main component of buffer systems
36.Concentration gradient is stable between cells and fluid outside
39.Utilizes a blood pressure cuff to check calcium issues this way
42.Byproduct of protein metabolism; creatine derivative; measured in the blood to detect change in renal function
43.Noticeable sign of hyponatremia
45.Too little of this can lead to dangerous arrhythmias and too much can lead to renal calculi
47.Extracellular fluid (Abbrev)
50.Peptide released by cardiac muscle cells when pressure and sodium levels are increased, to increase excretion of volume and sodium
