Hypotonic
Which of the following conditions can lead to cell lyses if not properly monitored?
A. Isotonicity
B. Hypotonicity

B. Patient with increased intracranial pressure
C. Patient experiencing Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemia
D. All of the options are correct
B
True or False: D5W solutions are sometimes considered a hypotonic solution as well as an isotonic solution because after the body absorbs the dextrose the solution acts as a hypotonic solution.
