Module 5

Intracellular fluid

Fluid within cells, make up 70% of fluid in the body

Extra cellular fluid

Fluid outside of the cells, make up 30% Of the fluid in the body

interstitial fluids

Surrounds tissue cells and includes lymph

Intravascular fluid

The liquid component of blood

Trans cellular fluid

Cerebral spinal fluid, pericardial fluid, synovial fluid, sweat and digestive secretions

Normal ph

7.34-7.45

Normal PcO2 levels

35-45mm hg

Normal HCO3 levels

22-26 mEq

Respiratory acidosis

• Low pH in high CO2 levels

• Arises from alveolar hypoventilation

• Lungs unable to excrete enough CO2

• Excess carbonic acid in the blood decreases pH

Respiratory alkalosis

• High pH and low CO2 levels

• alveolar hyperventilation

• Too much CO2

• Deficit of carbonic acid in blood increases pH

Metabolic acidosis

• Low pH In HCO3

• increase in metabolic acid or decrease in base

• kidneys, unable to excrete metabolic acidosis

• results in decrease level of consciousness

Metabolic alkalosis

• pH and HCO3 levels are high

• Decrease in metabolic acid or increase in base

• Can result increased blood HCO3

Resting energy expenditure

Amount of energy to consume over 24 hour. For the body to maintain internal working activities well at rest. (Homeostasis)

Metabolism

All biochemical reactions within the cells of the body

Anabolism

Building of Complex biochemical substances, by synthesis of nutrients

Catabolism

Breakdown of biochemical substances, into simpler substances, occurs during psychological states of negative nitrogen balance

Sodium levels

135-145

Chloride levels

95-105

Potassium levels

3.5-5

Calcium levels

8.5-10.5

Magnesium levels

1.5-2.5

Phosphate

2.5-4.5
