Normal Saline Solution in 5% Dextrose or D5NSS is a hypertonic solution. It can be used for the temporary treatment of shock if plasma expanders are not available. However, do not administer this IV for clients with cardiac or renal conditions.

Is d5w isotonic when mixed with 0.9 percent NaCl?

D5w and 0.9 ns are both isotonic solutions (osmolarity is similar to body fluids). When combined however, the solution becomes hypertonic (osmolarity is greater than body fluids). When administered iv, d5w .9 ns pulls fluid from cells and interstitial space into blood vessels.


Is 0.90 percent mv glucose isotonic hypotonic or hypertonic?

No,5percent glucose is an isotonic solution. 0.9 percent is for NaCl.


Which of the 3 intravenous solutions isotonic hypotonic hypertonic has more electrolytes andor glucose content - please differentiate the three solutions based on the mentioned content?

Hypertonic solutions have more electrolytes....HYPER meaning greater/more/excessive. Hypotonic have the least electrolyes. Isotonic have the similar electroly (osmolality) as blood. Meaning if you give isotonic solutions, the fluid will saty in the vessels and not move fluids around. Hypertonic solutions will move water from the cells into the vessels (extracellualr) and hypotonic solution will move water from fluid from the vessels into the cells. Glucose is usually an iso or hypertonic solution, but there are different % of glucose in every solution. D5W is an isotonic solution.


Is D5 water a hypertonic solution?

D5W is hypertonic to solutions containing less than 5% dextrose.

What you would administer hypertonic isotonic and hypotonic solution for?

Hypertonic solutions contain higher concentrations of various dilutes than blood, Isotonic solutions contain the same concentrations, and Hypotonic solutions contain less of its dilute components than blood. As such, you might deliver hypertonic saline to a patient who is electrolytically depleted, an isotonic to a patient whose blood chemistry is good but is hypovolemic, and a hypotonic like D5W to a dehydrated patient whose electrolytes are very high in spite of the dehydration. It's a way of adding fluids and trying to balance the blood chemistry at the same time.

2.5 dextrose in normal saline hypertonic or isotonic?

A 2.5% dextrose in normal saline solution is hypertonic. Normal saline (0.9% NaCl) is isotonic, but adding dextrose increases the osmolarity, making the solution hypertonic.

no, It's isotonic.


What's the difference between isotonic and hypertonic solutions"?

Isotonic solutions have the same concentration of solutes as the cells, while hypertonic solutions have a higher concentration of solutes than the cells.
