Dilutional hyponatremia - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Hyponatremia: Causes (<135 mEq/L) - -loss of Na+ -vomiting -diuretics -taking in too much water -water follows concentrated Na+ outside of cell -diluted Hypotonic Dilutional Hyponatremia - -water moves from outside of cell to dilute the inside -ADH is released the replenish water outside of the cell -not voiding Hyponatremia: Manifestations - -muscle cramps -weak -altering of consciousness/alertness - Hyponatremia: Treatment - - Hypernatremia: Causes (>145 mEq/L) - -decreas...

CNUR 305 Sodium - correct answer Range 135 -145 mmol/L Responsible for water balance Required for normal transmission of impulses across muscle and nerve cells through sodium-potassium pump mechanism Role in maintaining acid-base balance Changes in sodium levels alter water balance Can increase acidity Hypernatremia: Water loss (dehydration)or sodium gain (hypertonic saline administration, adrenal tumor causing increased aldosterone) Primary prevention is thirst First indicator is urin...
