In cases in which an accurate assessment is critical to a client's treatment, the nurse weighs wet linens, pads, diapers, or dressings, and subtracts the weight of a similar dry item. An estimate of fluid loss is based on the equivalent: 1 lb (0.47 kg) = 1 pint (475 mL). ordering type of solution, additive, amount of infusion, and duration p. 870-875 Explanation: The nurse prepares the solution for administration, performs a venipuncture, regulates the rate of administration, monitors the infusion, and discontinues the administration when fluid balance is restored. The healthcare provider, not the nurse, specifies the type of solution, additional additives, the volume (in mL), and the duration of the infusion. The kidneys selectively retain electrolytes and water and excrete wastes and excesses according to the body's needs. p. 850, 855 Explanation: Fluid homeostasis normally functions automatically and effectively. Almost every organ and system in the body helps in some way to maintain fluid homeostasis. The kidneys selectively retain electrolytes and water and excrete wastes and excesses according to the body's needs. The cardiovascular system is responsible for pumping and carrying nutrients and water throughout the body. The adrenal glands secrete aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid hormone that helps the body conserve sodium, helps save chloride and water, and causes potassium to be excreted. The lungs regulate oxygen and carbon dioxide levels of the blood. Regulation of the carbon dioxide level is especially crucial in maintaining acid-base balance. Thyroxine, released by the thyroid gland, increases blood flow in the body, leading to increased renal circulation and resulting in increased glomerular filtration and urinary output. The parathyroid glands secrete parathyroid hormone, which regulates the level of calcium and phosphorus. Parathyroid hormone draws calcium into the blood from the bones, kidneys, and intestines. It also facilitates the movement of phosphorus from the blood to the kidneys, where it is excreted in the urine. 2,500 mL/day p. 856 Explanation: In healthy adults, fluid intake generally averages approximately 2,500 mL/day, but it can range from 1,800 to 3,000 mL/day with a similar volume of fluid loss. 1,000 mL/day and 1,500 mL/day are too low, and 3,500 mL/day is too high. What hormones regulate fluid and electrolyte balance by preventing water and sodium loss?Aldosterone. Aldosterone is a key steroid hormone critical for maintaining salt and water balance. It regulates the concentration of minerals, like sodium and potassium, in the fluid outside your cells.
Which hormone regulates fluid and electrolyte balance?Direct control of water excretion in the kidneys is exercised by vasopressin, or anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), a peptide hormone secreted by the hypothalamus. ADH causes the insertion of water channels into the membranes of cells lining the collecting ducts, allowing water reabsorption to occur.
Which hormone regulates the sodium balance in the body Select all that apply?aldosterone, a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal glands. Aldosterone serves as the principal regulator of the salt and water balance of the body and thus is categorized as a mineralocorticoid. It also has a small effect on the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.
How does the body control its fluid and electrolyte balance?To adjust fluid levels, the body can actively move electrolytes in or out of cells. Thus, having electrolytes in the right concentrations (called electrolyte balance) is important in maintaining fluid balance among the compartments. The kidneys help maintain electrolyte concentrations.
