REVIEW- FLUID AND ELECTROLYTES
Pabitra Sharma

Review… Water present in the body is body water.
Water of the body together with its dissolved solute is called body fluid
The distribution of total body water is as follows:
Muscle(50%), Skin( 20%), Blood( 10%), other organ( 20%) Total body water depends upon age, sex
and degree of obesity

Body fluids Intra cellular – fluid occupied inside the
cells. Intracellular fluid is found inside the bi-layered plasma membrane in which cellular organs are suspended and chemical reaction takes place
Extracellular- fluid in the spaces outside the cells including interstitial fluid, plasma and trans cellular fluid of the body
11
Trans cellular- specialized ECF or another small compartment of fluid. It is the fluid separated from plasma by epithelium. This compartment includes: Synovial, Peritoneal ,Pericardial, Intraocular, CSF

women have less water than men if they are the same weight…..??? The water content of adipose tissues is
less than that of muscle, while Women have more adipose tissues at the
effects of feminine hormone

Composition and function of ICF
Composition Electrolyte, protein, cholesterol,
phospholipids, neutral fatFunction Provides fluid media within the cells for
chemical reaction Buffering action
19
Composition and functions of ECF
Composition Electrolyte, Glucose, Fatty acid, amino acid, chemical
messenger, oxygen and other nutrients, ureaFunctions Establishes the milieu interior Provides nutrients to the cells Removes metabolic waste materials from immediate
cellular environment It brings to the cells hormones that co-ordinate the
functions of widely separated cells Buffering action
20
Fluid movement Solute- the substance that dissolved solvent- substance in which solute is
dissolved Osmolality-Concentration of solute per
kg of water Osmolarity- concentration of solute per
liter of solution Solution substances that dissolved in
other substances
21
Fluid movement Fluid and solute constantly move within
the body, which allows the body to maintain homeostasis
Fluids along with nutrients and waste products constantly shift within the body’s compartment from the cell to the interstitial spaces, to the blood vessels and back again
22
Fluid movement Contd…. Types of transportA. Active transportB. Passive transport- Diffusion- Osmosis- filtration
23
Active Transport Particles to travel in the reverse direction
across the membrane and have particles travel from an area of LOW concentration to an area of HIGH concentration, but in order to counteract the force of diffusion the cell must expand energy, this process is called Active Transport
24
Active Transport Contd… Active transport is the movement of
material through a membrane Against a concentration gradient. Active transport require energy
The energy for active transport comes from ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate) , generated inside mitochondria
25
Active Transport Contd… This process requires specialized protein,
which are carrier protein to bind with particles and transport it.
26
Passive Transport DiffusionThe movement of molecules from a area in which they are highly concentrated to a area in which they are less concentrated.
27
Diffusion Contd… There is greater concentration of free waterMolecules outside the cell diffusion process
28
Diffusion process
29
osmosis Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of
solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides
Osmosis provides the primary means by which water is transported into and out of cells
Difference in concentration between solutions on either side of semi permeable membrane called Osmotic gradient
30
Osmosis Contd….. For osmosis potential water molecule
have to move is called osmotic potential. Distilled water has the highest potential ( Zero)
When water has another substance dissolved in it , the water molecules have have less potential to move. Then the osmotic potential is called negative.
The osmotic potential of a cell is known as its water potential. For a animal cell the water potential is the osmotic potential of the cytoplasm.
31
Osmosis Contd… Osmole- Measures of solution’s ability to create osmotic
pressure and thus affect movement of water- Proportional to the number of osmotic particles
formed in solution Osmolality- - When the concentration of a solution is
expressed in osmoles per kilogram of water, the osmolar concentration of a solution is referred to as its osmolality
32
Osmosis Contd…. In normal condition, the osmolality of
plasma =interstitial fluid= intracellular fluid=280-310mmol/l
The osmolality is determined mainly by: In ECF: Na and CL(80%)( in clinical
practice, serum osmolality can be estimated by doubling serum sodium)
In ICF- K+(50%)
33
Osmosis Contd…. In animal cells, the water potential is equal
to the osmotic potential o the cytoplasm, but this is different in plant cell
Plant cell have a cell wall, which exerts an inwards pressure when the cell in turgid. This is known as pressure potential
The water potential of an animal cell is equal to the osmotic potential of the cytoplasm plus the cell wall pressure
W.P=O.P+P.P
34
Osmosis Contd…..Osmotic pressure Pull that draws solvent through the membrane to
the more concentrated side Determined by the number of particles instead of
the mass of the solute in the solutionIt can be: Crystal osmotic pressure- formed by a lot of small
molecular weight material, such as electrolyte, glucose, BUN, and so on
Colloid osmotic pressure- formed by large molecular weight materials such as protein.
35
36
Calculation of osmolality Osmolality – 2Na+Glucose/18 + BUN/2.8 Glucose + urea= plasma Osmolality Effective osmolality (tonicity)- 2Na+
Glucose/18
37
Oncotic pressure Oncotic pressure, or colloid osmotic
pressure is a form of osmotic pressure exerted by blood plasma proteins. It usually tends to pull water(fluids) in to circulatory system(capillaries)
It is the opposing force to hydrostatic pressure
Its normal value is about 20-25mmof Hg
38
Contd…. Capillary oncotic pressure(COP)-
pressure that pulls fluids back into the capillary
Tissue oncotic pressure (TOP)- pressure that pulls fluids out of the capillary as a result of free proteins attracting fluids.
39
Hydrostatic Pressure Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted by the
fluid against the containerCapillary Hydrostatic pressure (HP)(Capillary blood pressure)- tends to force fluids through capillary wall- Greater at atrial end ( 35mm of hg) than venuleend ( 17)Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure- Pressure that would push fluid into vessels- Usually assumed to be zero because of lymphatic
vessels
40
Mechanism in fluid exchange The forces which govern this exchange
of fluid between the plasma and the interstitial fluids are
- Hydrostatic pressure due to fluid tension with in circulation
- The colloid osmotic pressure of the plasma proteins
41
Mechanism in fluid exchange Contd…
The hydrostatic pressure is much higher in the capillaries than in the tissues spaces and tends to drive fluid out of the capillaries by filtration
The osmotic pressure is much higher in the blood plasma than in the interstitial fluid and tends to draw back into the capillaries by osmosis
These two forces act on opposite direction
42
While the osmotic pressure is uniform throughout the capillaries length, the hydrostatic pressure falls from the arterial to the venular end. At the arterial end of the capillary the hydrostatic pressure is greater than the colloid osmotic pressure and therefore, fluid tends to pass out of the capillaries. At the venule end of the capillaries, the hydrostatic pressure is less than the colloid osmotic pressure and therefore, H2o is reabsorbed into the capillaries at this end of the capillaries.
43
Contd… For every 100 calories metabolized, the
body loses about 65ml water in the urine, 40 ml by sweating , 15ml by lungs and about 5ml in the feces, whereas it gain 15ml from metabolic processes.
44
Electrolyte Cation (Positively charged ins) of human fluids A positively charged ion or electrolyte;
Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium (ECF) Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium (ICF)
Anion A negatively charged ion or electrolyte;
chloride, bicarbonate, phosphate, sulfate Protein and organic acids (ECF). Chloride,
bicarbonate, Phosphate and protein (ICF)
45
Electrolyte Electrolyte are the electrically charged
minerals that when dissolved in water or another solvent, forms or dissociated into ions ( electrically charge particles conduct electric current)
Electrolyte are distributed through out fluid compartment of the body. The solution is known as electrolyte solution.
Common electrolyte are bases, acid and salts
46
Electrolyte balance Electrolyte balance ( charged minerals)
in the fluids helps distribute the fluids Inside and outside the cells., thus
ensuring the appropriate water balance and acid-base balance to support all life processes.
Excessive losses of fluids and electrolyte disturb these balances, and the kidneys play a key role in restoring homeostasis.
47
Electrolyte contd… Substances can cross the membrane
because of the membrane’s property of being partially permeable • That is it is permeable to some substances and not to others.
Some substances are able to move into the cell and some are allowed out.
48
Sodium Chief electrolyte of ECF that moves easily between
intravascular and interstitial spaces and moves across cell membranes by active transport
Influential in many chemical reactions in body, particularly nervous and muscle tissue cells
Controls and regulates volume of body fluids; maintains water balance through out the body
Primary regulator of ECF volume and influences ICF Participates in generation and transmission of nerve
impulses Essential electrolyte in sodium-potassium pump Normal extracellular concentration: 135 – 145 mEq/L
49
50
Potassium Major cation of ICF working in reciprocal fashion with sodium
(excessive intake of sodium results in excretion of potassium, vice versa)
Chief regulator of cellular enzyme activity and cellular water content
Plays vital role in such processes as transmission of electric impulses, particularly nerve, heart, skeletal, intestinal, and lung tissue; protein and carbohydrate metabolism.
Adequate quantity, usually in well-balanced diet Food sources include bananas, peaches, kiwi, figs, dates,
apricots, oranges, prunes, melons, raisins, broccoli, potatoes, meat and dairy products- excreted primarily by kidneys, however, there are large amounts in GI secretions and some in perspiration and saliva- normal range for serum: 3.5 – 5 mEq/L
51
52
Calcium Most abundant electrolyte, with up to 99% of
total found in iodized form of bones and teeth Close link between concentrations of calcium
and phosphorus- necessary for nerve impulse transmission and blood clotting-
Catalyst for muscle contraction- needed for vitamin B12 absorption and its use by body cells
Acts as catalyst for most cell chemical activities
53
Calcium Contd… necessary for strong bones and teeth determines thickness and strength of cell
membranes adult avg. daily requirement about 1 g, higher
amts. according to body wt. required for children and pregnant and lactating women- 1,500 mg/day recommended consumption for older adults,
particularly postmenopausal women and men older than 65
sources include milk, cheese, and dried beans, some present in meats and vegetables.
54
Magnesium Most cation found within body cells –
heart, bone, nerve, and muscle tissues 2nd most important cation in ICF Important for metabolism of
carbohydrates and proteins- important for many vital reactions involving enzymes
Necessary for protein and DNA synthesis, DNA and RNA transcription, and translation of RNA
55
Magnesium Maintains normal intracellular levels of
potassium Helps maintain electrical activity in
nervous tissue and muscle membranes Adult daily avg. requirement about 18
– 30 mEq, with children requiring larger amts.
Found in most foods, but especially in vegetables, nuts, fish, whole grains, peas and beans
56
Chloride Chief extracellular anion, found in blood, interstitial
fluid, and lymph and in minute amounts in ICF Acts with sodium to maintain osmotic pressure in
blood- plays a role in body’s acid-base balance Has important buffering action when oxygen and
carbon dioxide exchange in red blood cells Essential for production of hydrochloric acid in
gastric juices- found in foods high in sodium, dairy products, and meat-
Deficit leads to potassium deficit, and vice versa- normal serum levels: 95 – 105 mEq/L
57
Bicarbonates Anion that is major chemical base buffer
within body- found in both ECF and ICF Essential for acid-base balance; bicarbonate
and carbonic acid constitute body’s primary buffer system
losses possible via diarrhea, diuretics, and early renal insufficiency
Excess possible via over ingestion of acid neutralizers, such as sodium bicarbonate
Normal levels range between 25 – 29 mEq/L.
58
Phosphate Major anion in body cells Buffer anion in both ICF and ECF Helps maintain body’s acid-base balance Involved in important chemical reactions
in body (necessary for many B vitamins to be effective, helps promote nerve and muscle action, plays a role in carbohydrate metabolism)
59
Phosphate Important for cell division
and transmission of hereditary traits- avg. daily requirements similar to calcium
Found in most foods but especially in beef, pork, and dried peas and beans
Inversely proportionate to calcium - - increase in one results in decrease of the other- normal range: 2.5 – 4.5 mEq/L
60
Normal value Sodium 35-145mEq/l Potassium (k+) 3.5-5.0mEq/l Ionized Calcium (Ca++) 4.5- 5.5mg/dl Calcium (Ca ++) 8.5- 10.5mg/dl Bicarbonate (HCO3) 24-30mEq/l Chloride( Cl-) 95-105mEq/l Magnesium 9Mg++) 1.5-2.5mEq/l Phosphate (PO4) 2.8- 4.5 mg/dl
61
Fluid Tonicity
62
Isotonic (240-340 mOsm) Solution has the same solute
concentration or osmolality as normal blood plasma (290 mOsm) and other body fluids
Solution stays where it is infused, inside the blood vessels
Expand the intravascular compartment, it does not affect the size of the cell and solution helps to maintain body fluid balance.
63
64
RL 273 mOsm/lRinger’s 309 mOsm/l
NS 308 mOsm/l
D5 252 mOsm/l
Intra lipids 10% 280- 300 mOsm/l
D5 ¼ NS- 5% Dextrose and .2 NaCl
320 mOsm/l
65
Hypotonic solution Solution has lower osmolality than serum
(< 240 mOsm/L) Solution causes a fluid shift out of the
blood vessels into the cells and interstitial spaces
Solution hydrates cells while reducing fluid in the circulatory system
e.g – ½ NS- 0.45 NaCl)
66
67
Hypertonic solution Solution has an osmolality higher than
serum > 340 mOsm/L Causes the solute concentration of the
serum to increase pulling fluid from the cells and the interstitial compartment into the blood vessels
Reduces the risk of edema, stabilize blood pressure and regulates urine outputs
68

70
Group of fluids
71
Crystolloids Are isotonic and remain isotonic in the
vasculature and are therefore effective volume expanders for a short period of time
Ideal for patient who need fluid volume replacement
examples- RL,NS
72
Colloids Used to increase vascular volume
rapidely drawing fluid from the interstitial and intracellular compartment into the vascular compartment
They work well in reducing edema( pulmonary and cerebral) while expanding the vascular compartment
Examples- albumin, manintol, dextran etc
