23 Terms

1

Euhydration

Normal body water content within homeostatic range.

New cards
2

Dehydration

The process of dynamic loss of body water, e.g., the transition from euhydration to hypohydration.

New cards
3

Rehydration

The process of dynamic gain of body water through fluid intake, e.g., the transition from hypohydration to euhydration.

New cards
4

Hypohydration

A state of body water deficit.

New cards
5

Hyperhydration

A state of body water excess.

New cards
6

Total Body Water (TBW)

Approximately 50-70% of body mass, calculated as ~0.73 x fat free mass.

New cards
7

ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)

Hormone released by the posterior pituitary promoting water conservation by increasing plasma volume.

New cards
8

Aldosterone

Hormone released by the adrenal cortex that promotes sodium reabsorption in kidneys to increase plasma volume.

New cards
9

Sweat Rate

Rate at which sweat is produced, approximately 1-2 L/h.

New cards
10

Hyponatremia

Low blood sodium that can occur from excessive water intake, leading to symptoms such as confusion and possible brain swelling.

New cards
11

Fluid Balance Control

Mechanisms that allow the body to retain or excrete body water, monitored by osmoreceptors and volume receptors.

New cards
12

Hypertonic Blood

Blood with relatively high concentrations of sodium, protein, or glucose which can draw water out of cells.

New cards
13

Gastric Emptying Factors

Factors influencing the rate at which the stomach empties its contents, including gastric volume and exercise intensity.

New cards
14

Urine Color as Hydration Indicator

Urine color can be used to assess hydration status, with darker urine indicating hypohydration.

New cards
15

Sodium's Role in Fluid Balance

Sodium controls water movement between fluid compartments and stimulates thirst to maintain proper hydration.

New cards
16

Fluid Loss During Exercise

Includes loss through sweat, urine, and respiration, critical to monitor for maintaining hydration.

New cards
17

Pelvic Fluid Volume

Refers to the total volume of fluid (water and electrolytes) in the body's compartments, affecting hydration status.

New cards
18

Rehydration Recommendations

After exercise, it is advised to replace 20-24 oz of fluid for every pound lost to restore hydration.

New cards
19

Monitoring Hydration Status

Methods include tracking urine color, body mass changes, and specific gravity to assess hydration levels.

New cards
20

Thirst Sensation Deferment

Thirst is often a poor indicator of hydration needs, typically arising only after significant body water loss.

New cards
21

Effects of Dehydration on Performance

Dehydration can impair heat removal, increase cardiovascular strain, and decrease cognitive functions.

New cards
22

Effects of Hyperhydration

Can lead to dilution of sodium concentration in blood and might result in cellular edema.

New cards
23

Hydration Assessment Before Exercise

Includes checking for thirst, urine color, and body mass changes to determine hydration needs.
