It is used to replace fluids and electrolytes, maintain fluid balance, administer medications and blood products, provide nutrition, and monitor cardiac function. There are several types of IV fluids based on their tonicity - isotonic fluids like saline maintain fluid balance, hypotonic fluids hydrate cells by pulling fluid into them, and hypertonic fluids draw fluid out of cells. Buffers are used to correct…

(5% Dextrose in water) → This fluid BEGINS as an isotonic fluid, but once the dextrose has been metabolized by the body, fluid remains, expanding the cells (swelling the cells!)…
