    The document provides information on commonly used IV solutions, including their names, shorthand notations, pH levels, ingredients, uses, and potential complications. Some of the solutions listed include 0.45% sodium chloride (1/2 NS), 0.9% sodium chloride (NS), 5% dextrose in water (D5W), lactated Ringer's solution, and 5% dextrose in 0.45% sodium chloride (D5 1/2NS). The solutions can be used for hydration, electrolyte replacement, hypertonic fluid replacement, and providing calories. Complications may occur if too much fluid is given too quickly, or if the patient has conditions like hepatic disease.
