    Plain normal saline solution (PNSS) is an isotonic intravenous fluid used to treat extracellular fluid deficits when a patient has low sodium or chloride levels and metabolic alkalosis. It contains 154 mEq/L of sodium and chloride. PNSS comes in 1000 mL plastic containers. Nurses are responsible for checking physician orders, preparing equipment, regulating the IV rate, monitoring the insertion site for swelling or inflammation, providing aftercare, and documenting the IV administration. Patients should be taught to report any signs of infection.
