- What are colloids
- substance such as proteins or starches consisting of large molecules
- What is the primary fluid used prehospital
- Crystalloids , substances capable of crystallization in lolution unlike colloids they can diffuse through a membrane
- What are HBOCs
-
Hemoglobin based oxygen carrying solution
polyheme and hemopure - What is tonicity
- solute concentration or osmotic pressure relative to the blood plasma or body cells
- What is lactate ringer
- this is an isotonic electrolyte solution of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride and sodium lactate in water
- Wha tis D5W

- What are the 3 most common fluids used in prehospital
-
lactate ringer
normal saline
D5W - when you have high ion concentration on the Ph scale what does that mean
- Low PH
- what is the normal Ph range
- 7.35 to 7.45
- How much can the Ph vary befor it becomes fatal
- 0.4
- What are the three types of body regulation for Ph
-
Buffer
Respiratory
Renal - What is the fastest Ph regulator in the body
- Buffer
- What is respiratory acidosis
- acidity caused by abnormal retention of carbon dioxide resulting from impaired ventilation
- What is respiratory alkalosis
- alkalinity caused by excessive elimination of carbon dioxide resulting from increased repirations
- what is metabolic acidosis
- acidity caused by an increase in acid often because of increased production of acids during metabolism or from causes such as vomiting, diarrhea, diabetes or medication
- Whatis metabolic alkalosis
- alkalinity caused be an increase in plasma bicarbonate resulting from causes including diuresis, vomiting or ingestion of too much sodium bicarbonate
- What would increasing respirations and ascending toa a high altitude cause
- repiratory alkalosis
