The history of the intravenous therapy is less than a century old. Yet‚ it is well known that medication could be injected directly into the vein as early as the 1600’s‚ because of the lack of scientific methods‚ original attempts to deliver IV fluids and drugs met with little success. Two world wars brought in the era of modern IV therapy. However‚ the greatest advance in drugs‚ equipment‚ and procedures has occurred in the past 25 years. The first intravenous injections were experimented with in

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

How important are fluids? Fluid replacement is probably the most important nutritional concern for athletes. Approximately 60% of your body weight is water. As you exercise‚ fluid is lost through your skin as sweat and through your lungs when you breathe. If this fluid is not replaced at regular intervals during exercise‚ you can become dehydrated. When you are dehydrated‚ you have a smaller volume of blood circulating through your body. Consequently‚ the amount of blood your heart

Fluid mechanics is the branch of physics that studies fluids (liquids‚ gases‚ and plasmas) and the forces on them. Fluid mechanics can be divided into 1) fluid statics‚ the study of fluids at rest; 2) fluid kinematics‚ the study of fluids in motion; 3) fluid dynamics‚ the study of the effect of forces on fluid motion. Fluid Mechanics Overview Fluid is a substance that is capable of flowing. It has no definite shape of its own. It assumes the shape of its container. Liquids and gases are

Radiator fluid Coolant Radiator fluid is an essential unit of the auto since it shields the motor from the solidifying harm. At the point when the water gets changed over into ice‚ it represents an issue for the auto. Liquid catalyst is really the warmth exchange liquid which is utilized to ensure the solidifying. In both the sunlight based water radiators and the HVAC chillers it is utilized. Concoction are added to the water keeping in mind the end goal to keep the solidifying. Liquid catalyst

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:

interstitial fluid‚ and intracellular fluid are identical‚ but the quantity of each substance varies among the compartments. The most striking differences are the low protein content in interstitial fluid compared with intracellular fluid and plasma and the fact that sodium and chloride ions are largely extracellular‚ whereas most of the potassium ions (approximately 90%) are intracellular. This unequal distribution of ions results in a voltage difference across cell membranes. Extracellular fluid can be
