WaterWater BalanceBalance1. Water is the main component of blood and
cells. It fills spaces around cells. 2. The body must keep the amount of water
in balance.
3. The water in the body contains dissolvedminerals called electrolytes.
4. The body must also keep levels ofelectrolytes in balance.
5. The balance of electrolytes is closely tiedto the balance of water in the body:

WaterWater BalanceBalanceTotal body water (TBW) content averages50-70% of body weight. This volume depents
on:1. Age2. Sex3. Fatty mass per cent (fat tissue has a lower
water content)
About 2/3 of TBW is intracellular and 1/3 extracellular.

DehydrationDehydration
Dehydration is not having enough water in the body.
The body tries to keep blood pressure from falling by moving water from cell and the spaces around the cellinto blood vassels.
Tissues dry out.
The kidney try to conserve water by concentratingurine

ConditionsConditions thatthat make make dehydrationdehydrationmoremore likelylikely includeinclude thethe followingfollowing::
Hot weather, because sweating is increased. Fever, because sweating is increased and breathing
becomes more rapid Diarrhea, Vomiting,. Diabetes that is poorly controlled, because the body
produces more urine. Kidney disorders, because the kidneys are less able to
concentrate urine as needed. Problem with walking, because getting water is difficult. Dementia, because the sense of thirst is reduced and the
ability to get water when needed is impaired. Use of diuretics, because these drugs increased the amount
of water (and salt) excreted by kidneys.

OverhydrationOverhydration
Overhydration is having too much water inthe body.
The blood vessels overfill and fluid movesfrom the blood vessels into the spacesaround cells, causing swelling (edema).

OverhydrationOverhydration Blood test may be done to measure levels of
electrolytes or other substances that indicate howwell the kidney are functioning
A chest x-ray can show the back of fluid in thelungs.
Test may be needed to determine whetherheartfailure is present.
For people who are overhydrated, treatmentinvolves helping the body excrete the excesswater. Diuretic are drugs that help the kidneys do just that.

OverhydrationOverhydration
Overhydration has many causes: Heart failure. Kidney disorders. When the body produces too much antidiuretic
hormone (may be coused by pneumonia, strokeand by drugs like carbamazepine and sertraline).
Too rapid intravenous fluids infusions or bloodtransfusions.

OsmolalityOsmolality
Osmolality is a count of the total number of osmotically active particles in a solution and is equal to the sum of the molalities of all the solutes present in that solution.
The osmolality of plasma is closely regulated by anti-diuretic hormone (ADH).
The osmolality of a solution can be measured using an osmometer. The most commonly used instrument in modern laboratories is a freezing point depression osmometer.
You created this PDF from an application that is not licensed to print to novaPDF printer (http://www.novapdf.com)
OsmolalityOsmolality Plasma osmolality can also be calculated from the measured
components. While there are many equations, a simple one is as follows:
Serum oSerum osmolalitysmolality [[mOsmmOsm/kg H/kg H22O]O] = 2 x Na + Glucose+ urea = 2 x Na + Glucose+ urea (all measurements in (all measurements in mmolmmol/L)/L) OrOr
Serum Serum osmolalityosmolality [[mOsmmOsm/kg H/kg H22O]O] = 2 x = 2 x Na[mmolNa[mmol/L] + /L] + Glucose[mg/dGlucose[mg/dL]/18+ + L]/18+ + urea[mg/durea[mg/dL]/6L]/6
Reference range (plasma,serum): 275 – 300 mOsm/L Reference range (urine): 50 – 1400 mOsm/L The difference between the measured and calculated plasma
osmolality is known as the the osmolarosmolar gapgap and normally is between 0 and 10 0 and 10 mOsmmOsm/kg./kg.

Clinical Uses Clinical Uses Serum Serum osmolalityosmolality is used in two main circumstances:
investigation of hyponatraemia and identification of an osmolar gap.
Urine Urine osmolalityosmolality is an important test:- of renal concentrating ability,- for identifying disorders of the ADH mechanism, - identifying causes of hyper-or hyponatraemia.
Faecal Faecal osmolalityosmolality can be used to assist with diagnosis of the cause of diarrhoea.

The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation represents a very important relationship.
The HCO3/CO2 buffer system is of physiologic importance because both the pulmonary and renal mechanisms for regulating pH work by adjusting this ratio.
The PCO2 can be modified rapidly by changes in respiratory ventilation, while plasma [HCO3
-] can be altered by regulating its excretion by the kidneys.
