- Crystalloids |
0.9% NaCl (Normal Saline):
[Isotonic]
[pH = 5.0, 308 mOsm/L. Ahhhh - Here’s
a nice happy place… NS increases
plasma volume while maintains serum osmolality.
Ideally does not change the concentration of sodium ions, but to much can
lead to hypernatremic/chloremic metabolic acidosis.
Also, as volume increases, proteins and RBCs will be diluted, causing
pulmonary edema due to the resulting decrease in osmotic pressure.
Ye dig?
