    Study Notes

    Nutrition, Fluid Intake, and Urinary Elimination

    • Health issues related to nutrition include anorexia nervosa, bulimia, obesity, pregnancy, substance abuse, HIV & AIDS, and pre-op & post-op patient care.
    • Functions of water include maintaining body temperature, transporting minerals and vitamins, cushioning the brain and spinal cord, lubricating joints, and aiding in waste product excretion.
    • Fluid intake encompasses all liquids consumed by the client, including melted ice chips, liquid foods, and fluid instillations such as those administered through feeding tubes or irrigation.
    • Fluid output includes urine, emesis, blood loss, diarrhea, wound or tube drainage, and aspirated irrigations.
    • Electrolytes, derived from the diet, are essential for maintaining fluid balance, contributing to acid-base balance, facilitating enzyme reactions, and assisting neuromuscular reactions.
    • The largest constituents of body fluids are water and electrolytes, which play a vital role in various bodily functions.
    • Excess fluid volume/overhydration may present with symptoms such as weight gain, crackles in the lungs, slow pulse, elevated blood pressure, distended neck veins, and edema due to excessive interstitial fluid.
    • Parenteral fluid administration is indicated when a patient is unable to take fluids orally, needs hydration or electrolytes, or requires medications by IV route, and requires a physician's order.
    • Isotonic fluids, such as NS, D5W, and RL, are used to expand blood volume and maintain fluid balance.
    • Hypotonic fluids, like 1⁄2 NS or 0.45% NaCl, are used to rehydrate in cases of fluid deficits such as dehydration or vomiting.
    • Hypertonic fluids, such as Mannitol, D10W, and TPN, are used to reduce cerebral edema, expand circulatory volume rapidly, or administer nutrition parenterally.
    • The urinary system filters blood, removes waste products and excess water, regulates electrolytes, and assists in acid-base balance, with an acceptable minimal urinary output of 30 ml/hr and bladder capacity of 1,000 to 1,800 ml.
