Intravenous FluidSelectionCHAPTER3 GRIDLINE SET IN 1ST-PP TO INDICATE SAFE AREA; TO BE REMOVED AFTER 1ST-PPLEARNING OBJECTIVESBy the end of this CHAPTER , you should be able to: Describe and differentiate colloid and crystalloid IV fluids Understand osmosis as it pertains to water movement with IVtherapy Define tonicity and the actions of isotonic, hypotonic, andhypertonic crystalloids in the body Identify the three most common IV solutions used in theprehospital setting, and classify them as isotonic, hypotonic,or hypertonic Describe how an IV Fluid is packaged and important informa-tion located on the label of the IV fluidKEY TERMS5% Dextrose in water A carbohydrate solution that uses glucose(sugar) as the solute dissolved in sterile water. Five percent dextrose inwater is packed as an isotonic solution but becomes hypotonic oncein the body because the glucose (solute) dissolved in sterile water ismetabolized rapidly by the body s solutions IV fluids containing large proteins and moleculesthat tend to stay within the vascular space (blood vessels).
