10. It is decrease in whole body fluid volume
which includes both exta and intracellular fluid
loss.
Extracellular fluid loss is more important and
has to be assessed .
This fluid loss may be :
>Isotonic –Water and salt loss leading to
Hypovolaemia.
> Hypotonic – only water loss with minimal
electrolyte loss; leading to dehydration.
11. Isotonic Volume Depletion
Occurs due to diarrhea, vomiting and excess
dieresis.
> Fluid loss is only of ECF compartment and so
immediate reduction in intravascular volume
results leading to hypovolaemia and fall in BP.
> decreased Tissue perfusion.
features Dry tongue , rapid pulse, cold clammy
skin , sunken eyes , decreased BP, oliguria , raised
blood urea and decreased urinary sodium.
Hypovolaemia –Mild (<2l), Moderate (2-3L) ; severe
( > 3l ) fluid loss.
12. Hypotonic Fluid loss
> i.e. only water loss , occurs due to decreased
intake of water and diabetes insipidus .
> It causes dehydration and appropriate and
decrease in total body water in all fluid
compartments ( 2/3rd ICF , 1/3rd ECF ).
>As ECF loss is less ---intravascular fluids loss is
also less hence Fall in BP is also less .
Features severe thirst , confusion,
convulsions( due to hypernatraemia ), BP
relatively normal .
Dehydration : mild (weight loss 5%), moderate
(10%) , severe (15% ).
13. Evaluation is done by estimation of serum
Na+, urinary Na+ and blood urea .
Isotonic volume depletion is corrected by o.9%
normal saline infusion ,
Pure water depletion is corrected by more
water in take / IV 5% dextrose infusion .
Monitoring fluid therapy by skin and tongue
examination, weight gain pulse, BP, urine
output , CVP and PCWP.
14. Water & Salt excess
occurs in CCF , Cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome ,
hypoproteinaemia, renal failure , excessive
saline infusion.
Water Intoxication
TCRE, excess infusion of 5% dextrose only,
SIADH secretion, Psychogenic polydypsia.
It is managed by stopping fluid infusion or
procedure (TCRE), fluid restriction and treating
the cause.
15. Excessive amount of intravenous dextrose(5%).
Bowel Wash by plane water in place of normal
saline.
In TCRE (TUR in urology ) hydro dissection in
tumour surgery , when excessive fluid Plane
water or glycine is used for uterine distension.
In syndrome of inappropriate Anti diuretic
hormone secretion which is commonly
associated with lobar pneumonia, empyema ,
oat cell carcinoma and head injury .
16. Drowsiness , weakness.
Convulsions , coma.
Nausea and vomiting.
Passage of dilute urine.
Distended neck veins.
Gain in body weight .
Circulatory over load –tachycardia, pulmonary
edema, hypertension and pedal edema.
Bilateral basal crepitations , ascites.
Raised CVP, PCWP.
17. Investigations
>Haematocrit and sodium level (will show fall in
level)
> Low Potassium and Low blood urea.ECG< X-ray
Chest.
Treatment
>Water and salt restriction and observation .
> Monitoring in ICU.
> Management of fluid and electrolyte balance as per
serum electrolyte reports.
> Infusion of( ½) hypotonic saline.
Administration of diuretics and hypertonic saline
should be avoided as it may de arrange serum
electrolytes which may lead to neuronal demylation
and FATL OUTCOME.
18. ECF Loss
> Here only ECF loss occurs , ICF remains Normal.
> It is seen in diarrhoea , vomiting, intestinal
obstruction / fistula.
> Normal Saline infusion = to calculated ECF loss.
ECF excess
Only ECF Excess ,ICF remains normal.
It occurs when excessive infusion of saline with
impaired excretion as in renal diseases.
Raised JVP , cardiac failure and peripheral edema.
Treatment is fluid restriction and diuretics like
frusamide.
19.
20. Definition
> Serum Sodium level is < 130mEq/L
> Severe degree hyponatraemia, when serum
sodium level < 100 mEq/L in acute type and in
chronic type serum sodium level <115 is taken
as reference value.
< May be due to water over loading (dilution)
or sodium loss.
21. Acute—presents as neurological manifestations.
Chronic – cause pontine myelonlysis , presents as behavioral
changes , weakness and central nerve palsies.
Other types may be
(a) hypervolaemic Hyponatraemia –Rapid absorption of fluid occurs
leading to dilution and decreased Na+ concentration. Decreased
osmalality results in migration of ECF in to ICF compartment and
hence patient develops cerebral and pulmonary edema ., causing
convulsions and respiratory symptoms.
-Urinary Na+ conc. Is 15 mmol/L.
-fluid restriction ,hypertonic saline (double strength) infusion and
loop diuratics like frusamide injection are the main lines of
management.
- Monitoring is done by Serum Na= estimation and its correction till
it reaches above the level of 125mmol/L .
- correction should be slow and gradual at the rate of 2mEq/L /Hr
and up to 20 mEq/L in 24 hours. Serum Na+ estimation should be
done at 4 hourly interval .
- Rapid correction may lead to irreversible myelinlysis of pontine .
- Over correction should always be avoided.
22. (b) Hypovolumaemic hyponatraemia –
- Hypovolaemic as in dirrhoea and vomiting ,
hyponatraemic as urinary Na= level is <
20mmol/L.
- Due to forced diuresis and renal causes water is
lost and urinary Na+ level is more than
20mmol/L.
- It may be due to over correction of
hypovolaemia by only dextrose / hypotonic fluid.
- condition is treated by using Isotonic
fluid(normal saline ) therapy.
23. (c) Normovolaemic Hyponatraemia—
- It may be due to renal failure or Syndrome
of inappropriate ADH secretion
- Mild cases fluid restriction (1 litre /day )
will raise the Na+ level .
- In severe cases Vasopressin antagonist (
Demeclocyclin) will increase the diluting
ability of kidney . And Na+ level will improve.
24. ( d) Pseudo-hyponatraemia –
- Plasma osmalality is mainly achieved by Na+ but small
portion of it i.e. 25% is due to other solutes like glucose ,
proteins, urea and lipids which do not move out easily from
vascular compartment, in IC / EC Spaces.
- When concentration of this substances increase , the Na+
level will fall causing Pseudo hyponatraemia.
Correction of increased element will correct the Na+ level.
Causes
- Intestinal obstruction,
-intestinal fistula,
-gastric outlet obstruction with excess of vomiting ,
-prolonged Ryle’s tube aspiration,
-Severe diarrhoea due viral cause –in colitis and cororectal polyposis,
-SIADH,
-Immediate after surgery / trauma Na+ depletion occurs .
-stroke etc.
26. Serum electrolytes --- Low serum Na= Level.
Urinary Na+ level low,
Sodium deficit =
( 125- present Na+ ) X body weight in Kg X 0.6.
27. In acute cases --IV infusion of normal saline to
achieve slow and gradual correction of serum
Na+ level at the rate of 2mEq/L / hr.
Maximum 20mEq/L in 24 hrs. monitor Na=
Level at 4 hrs interval.
In chronic Case--< 1mEq/L/Hr and should
not exceed > 10mEq/l in 24 hrs.
Hypertonic saline 1.6 % or 3% can be used in
acute severe cases with caution of too early and
rapid correction is associated with myelinlysis
of pontine.
Cause is also treated simultaneously.
Type of Saline fluid NaCl content
0,9% normal saline /L 154mEq/L
3% hypertonic Saline 500 mEq/L
28.
29. Serum Na+ level >150mEq/L., is taken as
hypernatraemia.
Causes
>Renal Dysfunction.
>Cardiac Failure.
>Drug induced like NSAID , Corticosteroids.
>Excess infusion of hypertonic saline /intra amniotic
hypertonic saline previously used for mid trimester
MTP.
> excess of normal saline infusion causes overloading
in circulating salt and water. It is due to when water
deficit present in initial stage..
30. (A) Euvolaemic ( pure water loss ):
- It is due to decreased water intake as in coma,
bedridden people , post operative patients when iv
therapy has been stoped but pt does not take reqired
amount of water, patient in high fever leading to
external loss of water. It can also occur in diabetes
incipidus / chronic renal failure as renal loss of only
water.
( B ) -Hypovolaemic:
-( Among loss of water and Na= but water is more lost
than Na+.) as in cases of vomiting ,diarrhoea , more
undue sweating ( extra renal ) , osmotic diuresis by
high concentration glucose/ mannitol infusion (renal ).
( C ) Hyper volaemic :
- (Both water and Na+ gain But Na= gain is more than
water.) as seen in more salt intake, excess steroids , Na
HCo3/ hyper tonic saline infusion ( salt gain )
31. Pitting edema.
Puffiness of face .
Increased urination .
Often dilated jugular vein.
Features of pulmonary Edema.
32. Investigations
>Serum Electrolytes.
> Plasma and Urinary osmolality.
> Renal Function Test.
> Haematocrit.
Treatment
>Restriction of saline , Na+.
> Correction should be slow and gradual –
Initial infusion of normal saline ,then infusion of ½
strength (0.4.5% ) saline later with 5% dextrose ;
otherwise cerebral edema and hyperglycaemia can
develop.
> oral / nasogastric administration of water / other
fluids as condition improves.
33.
34. Serum Potassium level < 3.5 mEq/L is leveled as
hypokalaemia.( normal range –4.0 to 4.5 mEq /L)
1.Sudden onset It occurs in diabetic coma cases
treated with insulin and saline infusion ; as insulin
causes influx of K+ in the cells and saline (containing
NO K+) dilutes its concentration in serum.
2. Gradual onset
Diarrhoea of any cause,
ulcerative colitis,
gastric aspiration / vomiting,
After trauma or surgery ,
duodenal fistula/ileostomy ,
insulin therapy ,
poisoning ,
beta blockers ,

36. ECG– shows prolonged QT interval, depression of
ST segment , inversion of T wave and prominent
U wave.
Often hypokalaemia is associated with alkalosis.
Serum potassium < 3.5 mEq/L.
Treatment
> oral potassium 2gm ;6hrly , 15 ml K Cl
syrup(2ommol of K)
> Iv K CL 40mmol?L in5% dextrose / normal saline
slowly , often under ECG monitoring . Maximum
dose / hr is 20 mmol .
>Hypocalaemic alkalosis if present should be
treated carefully by iv Potassium .
37.
38. Normal serum K+ level ranges from 4.0 to 4.5
mEq/L
Hyperkalaemia menifests when serum K+
exceeds 6.0 mEq/L
39. Causes
Renal Failure.
Rapid infusion of potassium.
Transfusion of stored blood –K+ diffuse out of stored RBC.
Diabetic Ketoacidosis .
Adrenal Insufficiency.
Potassium sparing drugs like diuretic therapy
(spironolactone), beta blockers , cyclosperine .
Massive tissue destruction ,burns , trauma, tumor necrosis,
crush injury –intra cellular K+ is released in blood.
In vitro haemolysis, thrombocytosis , torniquet application
exercise cause pseudo hyperkalaemia.
Familial hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis.
Note Hyperkalaemia is dangerous state can result in cardiac
arrest.
40. (A) Investigations
> High serum potassium level.
> Peak T wave on ECG.
( B ) Treatment
> IV infusion of 50 ml of 50% glucose with 10 units of
soluble insulin , slowly .
>Infusion of 10% cal gloconate IV ( cardio protection)
> CaCl2 is given Iv in severe cases as calcium in this form
is immediately released without hepatic metabolism.
> Dieresis using Frusemide –causes K+ excretion.
> Haemolysis / dialisis when required.
> continuous ECG monitoring ,
> Salbutamol / Albuterol nebulisation
> IV Sodium bicarbonate –shifts K+ in to cells – 50- 100 ml
slowly over 10 minutes in 7.5% concentration .
41.
42. It is rare: serum magnesium level >
2.5mEq/L(normal level is 1.5- 2.5mEq/L ).
Intracellular magnesium is more 26mEq/L ( 2nd
more higher element).
Mg is mainly deposited in bones.
It is a co- factor for many enzymes necessary
for phosphorylation of glucose in cell and ATP
utilization in muscle fibers.
Daily dietary of Mg is 0.4 gram.
It is reabsorbed well in proximal renal tubules.
43. Advanced renal failure, patient treated with Mg containing
antacids.

47. Normal pH( - log of H+ ) is 7.36 – 7.44
When H+ increases pH decrases.
Factors which Control pH
.> Buffer System –
Bicarbonate Buffer
Protein Buffer
Phosphate Buffer
> Renal Control Of pH
> Respiratory Control of pH
48. Acid – is a substance that dissociates Waterto
release hydrogen Ion .
Base – is a substance that takes hydrogen Ion
Buffer – is combination of weak acid and
conjugate base.
These buffers maintain the H+ concentration in
blood with in a fine limit / range .
Buffers are 1. Intra cellular .
2. Extracellular.
49. Extra Cellular Buffer – Bicarbonate / Carbonic
acid , phosphate buffer and Plasma Protein
buffer arte extracellular natural buffers
.Bicarbonate / carbonic Acid buffer is most
important as carbonic acid level in blood is
regulated by lungs which removes excess of
Co2 gas. , while bicarbonate pare is contrilled
by Kidney.
Intra Cellular Buffer – Haemoglobin and other
protein inside cell are playing major role of
intra cellular Buffer.
Acidosis---When pH of blood is < 7.35 .
Alkalosis ---- when pH is more > 7.45 .
50. H+ (nmol/L ) = K x H2Co3m mol /L
_____________
HCO3m mol/L
or K x d PCO2
__________
HCO3 m mol/L
Here K is coefficien a constant factor =800( for H2 CO3 / HCO3
buffer )
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is solubility coefficient of CO2 in blood (d)
multiplied by partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) d is 0.03ml/mmHg
/ ml blood .
pCO2 is 40 mmHg .
H2CO3 = d pCO2 = 0.03 x 40 ==1.2ml .
Normal blood Bicarbonate (HCO3) level is 24 m mol /L
So H+ is 800 x 1.2 devided by 24 = 40m mol / L
51. It is used to find out pH of blood using
Logrithm .
Negetive log of K (800 for carbonic buffer ) is
called as pKa . It is 6.1 for H2CO3 / HCO#
buffer system.
pH = pKa + log HCO3 / H2CO3 means
6,1 + log 24 devided by 1.2 = 6.1 + log 20 =
6.1 + 1.3 = 7.4
52.
53. Primary base excess . E.g. HCO3 . A standard

65. It is a calculated estimation of the undetermined or
unmeasured ANIONS in blood .
ANION GAP = ( Na+ + K+ ) – ( HCO3- + Cl - ).
e.g. Total ANION – total Cation in blood
Normal anion gap is 10-16m mol /L.
Important unmeasured are +ve charged proteins ,
phosphate , sulphate and organic acids .
Important unmeasured Cations –Ve charged CA and
Mg.
Albumin is main component of Anion Gap .
When albumin level in blood decreases by 1 gm /
dl –anion gap decreases by 2m Eq /L .
66. Increased Anion Gap Is seen In Normal Anion Gap Is seen in
Metabolic acidosis due to
Ketoacidosis.

68. Osmolality of a solution is assessed by the
amount of solute dissolved in a solvent like
water measured in weight (Kg).
Osmolality of a solution is assessed by amount
of solute dissolved in solvent like water
measured in volume (litre) .
Normal plasma is 285 mOsm / Kg (275 -295 ).
69. * Plasma Crystalliod osmolality --2 Methods
a. Osmolality of plasma = 0.54/1.86 X 1o rase to power 3
mOsmol / Kg.
It is based on the fact that solution of 1mOsmol/ Kg
freezes at -1.86 degree Centigrade ; where as plasma freezes
at -0.54 degree Centigrade .
b . Osmolality of plasma= 2X(Na) +( Glucose mg%/18)
+ ( Blood urea mg % /6)
It is based on the concentration of major solutes ( Na , glucose
and urea) in plasma. Na+ contributes maximum in plasma
osmolality.
*Colloidal Osmotic Pressure It is difference in plasma
osmotic pressure and interstitial fluid pressure = 25 mmHg.
This is mainly due to concentration of Albumin in plasma.
Plasma proteins do not go out of capillary wall and do not
enter in interstitial compartment.
