Quiz zum Vortrag
Why must magnesium be checked before treating hypokalemia?
- Low magnesium prevents potassium from responding to replacement.
- Magnesium levels determine the correct IV fluid tonicity.
- Magnesium deficiency directly causes hypernatremia.
- Low magnesium increases the risk of cerebral edema during rehydration.
- Magnesium must be replaced before sodium can normalize.
A patient with hypernatremia, hypokalemia, confusion, and elevated BUN is admitted after prolonged GI losses. Which nursing hypothesis takes highest priority?
- Deficient fluid volume with dehydration and hypernatremia
- Risk for injury due to confusion and fall risk
- Electrolyte imbalance with cardiac dysrhythmia risk
- Impaired renal perfusion due to volume depletion
- Altered mental status due to cerebral edema
Which safety requirements apply when administering IV potassium replacement? (Select all that apply.)
- IV potassium must always be administered diluted.
- Maximum peripheral IV rate is 10 mEq per hour.
- Continuous cardiac monitoring is required during infusion.
- Serum potassium should be rechecked after each replacement dose.
- IV potassium may be given by rapid IV push in emergencies.
- Maximum peripheral concentration is 40 mEq per 100 mL.
Which IV fluid is preferred for surgical patients, trauma patients, and patients with burns due to its balanced electrolyte composition?
- Lactated Ringer's
- 0.9% normal saline
- 0.45% normal saline
- D5W
- 3% saline
