  2. Intravenous sugar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intravenous_sugar_solution

    D5LR (5% dextrose in lactated Ringer solution) D50 – 50% dextrose in water; The percentage is a mass concentration, so a 5% glucose/dextrose solution contains 50 g/L of glucose/dextrose (5 g per 100 ml). This usage is imprecise but widely used, as discussed at Mass concentration (chemistry) § Usage in biology. Glucose provides energy 4 kcal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_expander

    Intravenous sugar solutions, such as those containing glucose (also called dextrose), have the advantage of providing some energy, and may thereby provide the entire or part of the energy component of parenteral nutrition. Types of glucose/dextrose include: D5W (5% dextrose in water), which consists of 278 mmol/L dextrose

  4. Saline (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saline_(medicine)

    Saline solution for irrigation. Normal saline (NSS, NS or N/S) is the commonly used phrase for a solution of 0.90% w/v of NaCl, 308 mOsm/L or 9.0 g per liter. Less commonly, this solution is referred to as physiological saline or isotonic saline (because it is approximately isotonic to blood serum, which makes it a physiologically normal solution).

  5. Ringer's lactate solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringer's_lactate_solution

    Ringer's lactate solution is in the crystalloid family of medications. [5] It is isotonic, i.e. it has the same tonicity as blood. [2] Ringer's solution was invented in the 1880s; lactate was added in the 1930s. [4] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. [6] Lactated Ringer's is available as a generic medication. [1]

    Earle's balanced salt solution is an isotonic saline solution (or balanced salt solution) formulated by W.R. Earle in 1943. [1] It contains sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium sulfate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, sodium bicarbonate and dextrose (glucose). It is intended to be used in 5% CO 2 atmosphere. It is a ...

  8. Tonicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonicity

    In plant cells the terms isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic cannot strictly be used accurately because the pressure exerted by the cell wall significantly affects the osmotic equilibrium point. [5] Some organisms have evolved intricate methods of circumventing hypertonicity. For example, saltwater is hypertonic to the fish that live in it.

  9. Diabetic hypoglycemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetic_hypoglycemia

    Dextrose 5% and 10% come in IV bag and syringe form, and are mainly used in infants and to provide a fluid medium for medications. Dextrose 25% and 50% are heavily necrotic due to their hyperosmolarity, and should only be given through a patent IV line – any infiltration can cause massive tissue necrosis.
