A small water-soluble particle carrying a negative charge is termed?

• Anion

• Cation

• Proton

• Ion

The main anion of intracellular fluid is:

• Chloride

• Sodium

• Phosphate

• Potassium

The main anion of extracellular fluid is:

• Potassium

• Phosphate

• Sodium

• Chloride

An isotonic crystalloid solution will:

• Raise intravascular volume without altering fluid shifts in or out of cells or changing plasma concentration

• Encourage the movement of fluid into the intracellular space

• help to draw water into the intravascular space​

• Expand the plasma volume

A Hypertonic solution will:

• Help to draw water into the intravascular space​

• Raise intravascular volume without altering fluid shifts in or out of cells or changing plasma concentration

• Encourage the movement of fluid into the intracellular space

• Expand the plasma volume

If a hypotonic solution is given to a patient fluid will move:

• Fluid will move INTO the intravascular space

• Fluid will move OUT of the intravascular space

• There will be no movement of fluid in or out of the intravascular space

• Fluid will move out of cells

Which of the following is an example of a hypotonic crystalloid solution?

• 0.9% sodium chloride solution

• 0.45% sodium chloride solution

• Ringer's solution

• Hartmann’s solution

Metabolic acidosis can be caused by which condition?

• Chronic diarrhoea

• Chronic Vomiting

• Lung damage

• Hyperventilation

What is the normal blood PH for a canine or feline?

• 7

• 7.2

• 7.4

• 7.6

In which of the following cases might a hypertonic solution be appropriate to use?

• A patient suffering with hypernatremia

• Head injury where intracranial pressure is suspected

• A patient suffering from diarrhea

• A dehydrated patient
