16. What are symptoms of fluid volume deficit?
Fluid volume deficit is a deficit in extracellular fluid volume when salt and fluid losses exceed intake on a sustained basis.
Causes
increased gastrointestinal output (vomiting, diarrhoea, laxative
overuse, drainage from fistula or tubes)
Intake or output causes (excessive sweating without water and salt replacement)
increased renal output (diuretic use and kidney failure, adrenal insufficiency)
loss of blood or plasma(haemorrhage, burns)
SYMPTOMS

1. Mr. Simpson's extracellular fluid volume deficit occurred as a result of which primary mechanism? A. Decreased intake of fluids and electrolytes B. Excessive loss of blood and fluids C. Shifts of fluids and electrolytes into nonaccessible areas 2. Which of Mr. Simpson's signs are the result of compensatory mechanisms directed at maintaining cardiac output? A. Increased heart rate and oliguria B. Decreased blood pressure and sodium loss C. Respiratory acidosis and decreased heart rate D.All of the above t...
