    IV Fluids
    Common IV Fluid Use Contraindications
    Isotonic Saline (0.9%) Replaces Na loss from GI loss or CHF, Pulmonary Edema, renal
    burns impairment
    Isotonic 5% Dextrose in water Maintain fluid intake, provide No typical contraindications. Add
    D-5-W Hypotonic 10%Dextrose calorie needs, doesn’t replace insulin for DM patients
    D-10-W electrolyte deficiencies
    Isotonic 5% Dextrose in 0.3% NaCl Supplies calories for nutritional No typical contraindications. Add
    needs insulin for DM patients
    Hypotonic 5% Dextrose in 0.9% Maintains fluid intake, is No typical contraindications. Add
    NaCl maintenance FOC if no insulin for DM patients
    electrolytes needed
    Isotonic Ringers Solution Has similar electrolytes as plasma,
    correct metabolic acidosis,
    replace fluid losses from diarrhea
    snd burns
    IV Fluids
    Hypertonic Solutions replace electrolytes, should be given slowly and monitor for circulatory
    overload
    Lactated Solutions- Ringer’s solutions are isotonic and are used for rehydration and body fluid
    deficits. Doesn’t contain sufficient K or Ca to replace those losses. Always check medication
    compatibility prior to administering with Ringer’s solutions.
    Plasma-Lyte-M and Plasma-Lyte R- provide electrolyte replacement
    Devices for Regulation of IV
    Administration
    IV Push- given by syringe at the IV port. Gives a rapid dose of medication timed over 2-5 minutes
    IVPB- an intermittent infusion that uses a secondary line
    IV medications injected into a volume control chamber. They are diluted with the running IV
    fluid
    Electronic IV Pump- precisely measure the flow rate and regulate that flow rate over a period of
    time
    Clamp on the IV tubing
    Supplies for Protection of Infusion Site
    Sterile gauze dressing. Does not allow for visible site inspection
    Semipermeable membrane. Transparent (Tegaderm)
    Tape
