    Analysis Paper: Fluid Volume DeficitFluid volume is a term that describes the balancing of input and output of fluid in the body” (Welch 2010). This balance can be affected by many factors: inadequate intake‚ shock‚ vomiting‚ diarrhea‚ or too much output. It can also be caused by third spacing. Fluid volume balance is very important to monitor patients because it can affect every body system and can easily be altered. Fluid volume deficit is more commonly referred to as dehydration.

    Experiment 3: Fluid Flow Friction and Fitting Loss Objective To determine the pressure or head loss in different diameters pipes‚ joints and valves Theory Pipe flows belong to a broader class of flows‚ called internal flows‚ where the fluid is completely bounded by solid surfaces. In contrast‚ in external flows‚ such as flow over a flat plate or an airplane wing‚ only part of the flow is bounded by a solid surface. The term pipe flow is generally used to describe flow through round pipes

    Fluid Balance Explain in detail the fluid compartments of the body‚ including distribution of fluid and electrolytes within each compartment and the movement between compartments. In the average person water constitutes 60% to the total body weight.: 42L in a 70kg individual. 40% is intracellelular fluid‚ while remaining 20% is extracellular. The extracellular fluid can be divided into plasma (from intravascular compartment) and interstitial fluid intracellular fluid (28 L‚ about 35% of lean

Identify and describe the composition of the fluid compartments within the body Either Intracellular fluid (ICF- 2/3 of the body’s water) or extracellular fluid (ECF -one third of the body’s water). The two main extracellular fluid compartments are the interstitial fluid and the intravascular fluid‚ which is the blood plasma. Other ECF compartments include the lymph and the transcellular fluids such as the synovial ‚ intestinal‚

    Alterations in Fluids‚ Electrolytes‚ and Acid-Base Balance Composition & Compartment Distribution of Body Fluids ← Body fluids are distributed between the intracellular fluid (ICF) and extracellular fluid (ECF) compartments. The ICF compartment consists of fluid contained within all of the billions of cells in the body. It is the larger of the two compartments‚ containing approximately two thirds of the body water in healthy adults. ← The remaining one third of body water is in

    Fluid and Electrolytes Imbalances Fluid Compartments: * Extracellular Fluid (ECF) – This is fluid found outside of the cells and the amount of ECF decreases with age. In the newborn for example‚ approximately ½ of the body fluid is contained in the ECF. By the time the infant has reached one year old; the ECF has decreased to approximately 1/3 of the total volume. In an average 70 kg adult the ECF is approximately 15 liters of total volume. ECF can further be divided into the following:
